I'm almost 5 months out and only use unjury. In the beginning, I used the chicken broth, mixed with warm, not hot Water and more Water than it calls for. I loved it and it was comforting for me. I used the unflavored only in milk-based products like yogurt and pudding. I didn't use the chocolate until about a month ago because it was too sweet for me. I got my Protein mostly from cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and soft meats. Then a month ago I started experimenting with the chocolate and vanilla powders.

I posted earlier today in recipe sharing a shake with chocolate splendor powder, espresso powder, and chocolate almond unsweetened milk. Add a few ice cubes and blend and it's like a mocha milk shake. So yummy!

Well, here I am day 9 out post op and I have found that the whey Protein doesn't seem to like me much now... I haven't found any way to make it that doesn't run right through me.. I tried it will the almond milk and gagged, Tried it with soy milk, gagged... and Water? Yuck. Bariatric Advantage makes a Liquid Protein at 15 and 18 mg one ounce servings that I think I am going to try..

Hi. I have been drinking the chocolate splendor with skim milk and coffee and ice almost every morning since my surgery. I think it tastes great and I feel great! I HIGHLY recommend mixing it with your coffee and milk for a fabulous mocha-choca-latta-ya-ya!!!!!!!! :-)

I am 4 days post op so i Have not had any Protein Shakes since surgery. However, I tried several beforehand. I got some sample packs from Unjury. The chicken would not even dissolve in my broth. Tried strawberry sorbet & threw it down the drain. Tried mixing unflavored with sugar free koolade & lemonade & threw those down the drain also. May be unflavored but in a drink it drastically changed the taste & it was not pleasant. I did best with Orange Cream from Bariatric Advantage but I always mixed it with 12-16oz of Water. May try adding unflavored Unjury to soft foods when I get to that point.

Was your broth hot? Unjury won't mix properly over 130deg. The unflavored IMO is best mixed into milk based foods or drinks or creamy Soups.

I do agree on the strawberry, way too sweet for me. Overall I really like Unjury though.

I used my sample of vanilla my NUT gave me just yesterday. I made a 10oz drink, mixed it with vanilla ff Greek yogurt, some frozen mangos, a pack of stevia, and half a scoop of unjury. It. Was. Vile.

So medicinal and chalky. And I love vanilla :( back to the drawing board!

Everything tastes different to me since my surgery (10/11). I bought a flavor of Crystal Lite that I never had before, so I didn't know what to expect- they have a ton of new flavors. Using a shake cup (has a metal mixing ball-mine is from GNC), mix scoop of unflavored unjury Protein with one cup ice Water and a couple of ice cubes. Then I pour this mixture which is a little foamy into a large water bottle filled 1/2 way with ice. Add more Water to fill bottle. 32 oz. water/21 grams protein- This drink gets me from Breakfast to lunch just fine. My nut. wants me to have 3 meals a day and only water/liquids in between, so this works for me. (I'm trying Marguerita flavor Crystal Lite today!) Good luck!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
