How The Hell Do You Drink Isopure?



Recommended Posts

If you are in my area, I would give you some for free to taste. Sorry I won't ship... but I loved them. They are a bit tart at first, but not puke-y like Isopure IMO. I liked these in a 28 oz mug with ice and it was do-able!

I must still be really wiped out from surgery. I'm five days out and Isopure clear is all I've had. That said I can't meet my goals for liquids or Protein so I guess I should try to shake things up tomorrow. After a horrible surgery I'm sort of afraid to leave clears.

That stuff actually looks really good on paper. How does it taste?

Is it considered a clear liquid?

If you're not able to get all your liquids, then don't worry about Protein yet. Focus on Water, keep hydrated. The protein will come as the swelling reduces.

:wub: :ph34r: I have your answer... http://www.cytosport...-ready-to-drink << it's a link to Cytosport's RTD whey Isolate drinks. Straight up... yum!

I was on a clear liquid diet for a LONG time and it sucked. I hate isopuke (my apologies to anyone who likes it but YEEEEAKKK) and I hate Protein bullets. But this drink in green (tropical) or orange (tangerine) ROCKS. I bought them at Vitamin Shop. They have a refrigerated section where you can buy these individually and try them. Try anything, but keep your receipt. You have 7 days and even if it's open and you hated it, bring it back for a refund. (hello, Protein bullets... how do you think I know their return policy?) And yes, your tastebuds DO change, so remember Vitamin Shop has a great refund policy (that stuff is expensive, any of that stuff that is!).

Good luck!

I think I will take a trip to the Vitamin Shop this week and try one or two of the Isopure and Cytosport. I will report back with my findings. Fingers crossed!

I think I'm going to take your advice :). I gained 17.8 lbs between the hour before surgery and release from the hospital so I think the bloating is making it harder. I only have about 20oz in today and I think I'm working hard on it! Maybe tomorrow I'll just give the Protein a break and see if that helps. Thanks :)

I'm not a fan but I would mix it with crystal light. Okay make the crystal light first then mix it with the Isopure. I put the crystal light directly in a bottle of Isopure and it didn't mix well.

I drink Syntrax fuzzy navel with crystal light.

The cytosport whey isolate's RTDs are "clear" liquids. Yes.

      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.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
