The Only Protein Drink I Can Tolerate



Recommended Posts

I can't tolerate any kind of protien drinks. I checked the Unjury web site and also checked reviews from another blog. Unjury has an overwhelming amount of positive feedback. I am going to go in that direction and cross my fingers!

I like the unflavored. 1 scoop has 21g of protien. I mix it with crystal light strawberry. I also put it in my Jello cups. It does change the color of the Jello and crystal light. And with trail and error you can adjust The sweetness. But it's great to add a little more Protein during the day. The chocolate flavored shake is the only one a like. Mixed with skim milk its not bad. I really enjoy the chicken broth. And they have a few recipes for that as well that I haven't tried. Order the sample pack first, that helped me a lot. hope this helps.

Has anyone tried the Believe Protein Drinks? I know some have caffeine which some of us don't do but they have a creme brûlée flavor that does not... I am thinking about ordering from Bariatric Eating website. My support group leader who is post RNY was drinking a Mocha latte one and she said it was good but I haven't seen anyone on here comment on them ???

Mermaid Girl - I put about 2 oz Water and about 1/2 cup ice. Then I add 2 scoops powder, 1/2 banana, and about 4 frozen strawberries, then blend.

Another suggestion that I've not tried, but I plan to, is a recipe for a Bone Broth Soup. Look it up on Google and there's a bunch of recipes. Im planning to make that post op and add unflavored Protein. Apparently, it has a ton of Vitamins and minerals from the bones, then extra protein added...my recipe calls for beef or chicken bone (s) celery, onions, spices, and cook it on a very low simmer for hours, or crock pot it...you can strain out all the solids (a lot of the veggies will liquefy) and voila! An excellent and VERY nutritious broth. Beef knuckle is supposed to have the most nutrients. Any butcher should be able to hook it up...im going to ask the meat guy at my farmers market...

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
