I have been using the Unflavored Isopure since my pre-op diet. It really helped that I had the unflavored especially in the first two weeks post op. I added it to broth and Crystal Light. I will say though that I got brave once and added two scoops to one serving of Crystal light - hoping to easily double my Protein quickly. But, it just didn't taste right. Kind of nasty. One scoop works wonderfully for me though. It makes things taste a little different to me, but not so much that I can't drink it. Now that I'm used to it I don't even realize the difference in taste. I think it's a great product. If you decide to try, good luck! Hope you like it as much as I do.

Grubb79 can I ask how much unflavored Protein Powder you add to how much crystal light? I have tried adding per glass and it just doesn't work out right. also what flavors Crystal do you use when you add the Protein powder to it? Thank you in advance for your help :}

Hi Mini! I add one scoop to a regular sized serving of Crystal Light, 16.9 oz. The best flavor that I have tried it with in my opinion is the Cherry Limeade. Love it! Not sure if this will help you or not, but I found that the colder the drink it, the better it is. Most of the time I will use my Magic Bullet with the Crystal Light packet, Water (little less than the 16.9 since adding ice and it will melt), protein and some ice...wonderful slushie! Tastes yummy and I tend to go through it a little easier because I don't have that mindset of thinking it's just another protein drink!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
