Am looking for a good unflavored Protein supplement. I tried Bariatric Advantage and it still has a sicken sweet taste. I was wondering what you all thought of Unjury.< /p>

The unflavored Unjury is easier to cover. Some people add it to their eggs, and mashed potatoes. I blend two scoops with mango, ice and an oz of almond milk to sip through the day.

I recently received my sample shipment of Unjury, chocolate, unflavored & chicken... The chocolate was surprisingly GREAT! I have not tried the chicken yet - but I'm hoping that I'll feel the same about it ;-)

I'm 7 days post op and besides the Isopure my unflavored Unjury Protein is an essential part of my diet. I add it to my oatmeal, Jello, pudding, chicken broth and cream Soups. It doesn't taste any different, but it makes the jello cloudy but I feel better knowing I'm getting that extra protein in. I'm getting ready to order a 2nd can.

Unflavored Unjury has a slight milk flavor, kinda like if you mixed 1part skim milk with 2parts Water. It's great for mixing into stuff that have milk products in it. But I wouldn't recommend adding it to crystal light, G2, or anything of that nature.

Hi Sherry, I had surgery 10 days ago and all I drink is unjury. I like the vanilla and chocolate and add 10 oz. of skim milk instead of 6 oz. and it is perfect. Not too sweet and def not chalkie. I was worried about Protein powders because I can't stand anything that doesn't taste natural but I was so surprised at how good the Unjury is. I don't like the strawberry sorbet flavor though. It doesn't taste like natural strawberry to me and def tastes like a drink with meds in it. I haven't tasted the unflavored yet but I imagine they did just as good a job on that one. Good luck and let me know what you think if you decide to try it.

Leah :)

I had done a a Google search and Unjury seemed the most highly recommended in terms of both taste and high Protein content. So I ordered the chocolate Splendor and chicken Soup flavor from their website. I have tried the Chocolate Splendor and it's not as bad as the others I have tried, but it's not that good either. For me, it still has that sickening aftertaste that almost makes me gag everytime I swallow. I make it with Mootopia, a high protein skim milk (which tastes fine by itself). Haven't tried mixing it with anythng else yet, such as fruit. I am one month past my sleeve surgery and I would say the difficulty in tolerating the Protein Drinks is far and away been the biggest challenge.

I just ordered the chocolate splendor, unflavored and the chicken broth... hopefully they will be better than Bariatric Advantage (which I find way too sweet).

I tried unflavored in homemade broth and I couldn't get past the smell. It was pretty bad. I am 3 days post-op and today all I could stomach was premade EAS chocolate. Please note that I was pretty gaggy pre-sleeve, so I am not surprised that I couldn't take it.

If you use it in something Milk based, like your yogurt, it's pretty undetectable. Otherwise , yes it can be pretty bad.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
