Has anyone tried mixing flavorless protien powder with surger free Jello?

I am thinkingt about post op when you have to eat soft foods. Not sure if it can be done and havent really looked to hard. but it could be a good idea if it works.

Any ideas? anyone try it?

I've thought of it too, but have yet to try it. My thing was trying to figure out how to know exactly how much Protein was in each serving. I have the flavorless Isopure powder and thought about trying it out. If I can figure it out or anyone else does, please share!

I tried it and it it was gross! I mixed it exactly as they suggested on the Isopure site and there was a film on top of the Jello. I tried to scrape off the film and eat it but just couldn't eat more than a couple of bites. I was only about a week out and it was black cherry which I used to like so maybe it was changing taste buds. I never tried to make it again but if I did I would use half the amount of Protein as they suggested.

Me too! Used recipe sent to me from manufacturer (Unjury brand) and threw away two batches-totally unedible! I'll leave my Jello unadulterated by this Protein madness, thank you very much!

Have y'all tried to mix it with the liquid Isopure? Use that instead of the Water they come out much better

I love this idea! I hate Jello, and the thought of eating it makes me sick. But if I have a reason to eat it (protein) I can choke it down :)

Hi all you Protein Jello seeking fans. Bariatric Advantage makes Soups and jellos that are Protein infused. Most servings are 15 grams of protein. They taste great and I am having no problem getting them down two days post op. Good luck on your journey.

Really?? I haven't seen it in their product catelog. What's it called? Everything's got a weird name :) I'm interested! Seems like a post op must have

I mis-spoke. Sorry I thought all of my stuff was made by Bariatric Advantage. Now that I am going through the cupboard, I am realizing that the doctor I am going through sells this under their name. The name of the program is the N.E.W. Program in Costa Mesa , Ca. They may have a site you can order the Jello and Soup through. Truly a life saver.

Although a little pricey, I have tried these and found them to be "decent" just for the mere reason I can not, for the life of me, master Protein Jello with unflavored Protein. I have thrown away 6 batches of these!

Close to around $6 for a package of them - GNC. Vitamin shoppe doesn't carry anything similar.

      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...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
