I have heard people mix it in to pudding, Jello, yogurt, Soups - but also have heard people add in vanilla in many sweet things also. I know for me it isn't so much the TASTE but the SMELL! I have to drink it from a cup with a lid! Have you tried that?

I mix my unflavored powder 1 scoop to 1 packet of swiss miss hot chocolate and hot hot Water or milk depending on how much more protein I need for the day. I also mix it into pudding sometimes.

Unjury makes a great chicken broth. I still have an entire can of it just because I was sick of drinking broth but you can use it to make all kinds of Soups.< /p>

I'm going nuts trying to find a unflavored Protein. Is the Unjury any good? I've also looked at Isopure. Any preferences??

There is Swanson chicken and beef broth. My doctor suggested just taking chunky Soup and putting it in a blender for the first two weeks.

As for shakes I find 1/2 banana with vanilla Protein shake powder it good. Gives it a good flavor and some body. Also you may try putting some ice in, they tastes better when cold to me. Else what flavors do you like - blueberries, raspberries, chocolate? Just experiment.

Thanks.

I was kinda going nuts on what brand to buy. I don't want to buy some and not like it. But that is the chance you take I guess. I went ahead and bought some unjury chicken Soup and some Unjury unflavored Protein powder. I also have some Premiere chocolate Protein milkshake here and some EAS Protein drinks....

Now I just need to stock up on some Vitamins.

Hi. I am looking for a truly unflavored, unflavored Protein powder and saw your post. What did you think of the unjury unflavored Protein powder. Can you taste it? Does it have a bad smell?

Thanks so much!

Wish I could help you more, but I was just sleeved Tuesday. And I got home yesterday late afternoon. I haven't had a chance to try it yet. So far I've only tried the Premiere chocolate after surgery and only getting in a few ounces.

Maybe start a new thread and ask. I'm sure others here have tried it! :)

Good Luck!

I have the unjury unflavored AND the chicken broth. I was sleeved on Oct 18th and try to use both as much as i can to get my Protein in. The broth is ok, it's just that you cant make the Water for the broth too hot because it doesnt do well in hot hot Water, and I like my Soup hot. Trying to drink Soup slowly makes it get cold quickly and then it's no longer appetizing to me, so I only make it in ridiculously small batches.

The unflavored has a distinct taste to me. My tastebuds seem super sensitive since being sleeved as well as my sense of smell, so to me it's gross, but kinda tolerable. It gives food a creamy like texture, almost like non-dairy Creamer. I added some to my tea this morning, and was still able to detect that it's in there. The taste isnt that bad, but I find that it alters the flavor of food that Im eating, but again, I'm super sensitive right now and hope that my tastebuds will chill out as the days go on.

Someone suggested a product called bipro to me and she claims that it's the best unflavored Protein out there. I'm not ready to purchase yet, but maybe you can look it up online and decide if you wanna take the plunge.

Good luck!

Thank you SO much for the info on unjury and the "tip" aobut bipro. I will definitely look it up. I was sleeved on October 17, so we are almost "Sleeve Sisters." I agree wiht you that tastebudfs do seem different. The bummer is that I developed lactose intollerance after this surgery, AND I am getting really sick of Protein shakes with soy milk, so I am looking for a new liquid way to get my Protein. My program doesn't have me starting solid food until next week. Thanks again, and good luck on your journey!

I've used almond milk to make my shakes, just to try and find a different flavor to see if it would be more appetizing. Not!

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
