I got where I couldn't stand another shake so I tried Isopure. I added a grape crystal lite that to Iospure and added some more Water and it tasted great. Make sure you take stool softeners I found that the Protein really messed me up. Might not bother you but just remember. One way to get your water in.

Okay experiment over and it is not tropical.... I have passionfruit you can definitely do that but honestly I just like took sip out of the bottle before hand and small taste okay but it's not then I could drink the whole 20 ounces of it... So I did like three quarters of the bottle and maybe a cup and a half iceI and hit blend... I honestly think it change the taste and made it tastes a lot worse and made it very Foamy... But it is still a very thin liquids so I don't know why you couldn't other than just adds volume to it and there's already so much you have to drink to get that Protein and you're just adding to it......idk... Thanks for the science project idea....

That stinks :(. So I better get out my shot glasses so I can take small amounts at a time. Ugh

I poured everything out but literally it stayed foam for hours and then this morning I got up and it was just back to looking like regular isopure...i wouldnt do it... Really shot glasses? Can you not just sip from the bottle or from the cans

I don't think I really have any concept of how it long it takes to drink 11 ounces at a time or however much when you're taking literally a teaspoon at a time

At Wal mart now they have Protein Shots. 42 grams of Protein. I measured out 1/2 put it in 32 oz of Water and can hardly taste the shot. And this way I am getting 21 grams of protein and my water. I hope to get the rest of my protein in with food.< /p>

Yes BUT you cannot drink the entire RTD bottle and call it a meal because your body can only absorb so much Protein at one time. When I was drinking them i'd do a half bottle at a time. Also gotta warn you that the RTDs have a funky aftertaste to them. I don't mind it but some people can't stand it. Don't buy a case of any flavor until you know for sure.

I'm with you on that. I tried one and almost gagged. I'm not even post Op. Lol. I bought 6 bottles all different flavors. I hope I can use them to get my protein in post Op.

I'll have to try that! I did check with my nutritionist. She said it has 2 different kinds of protein. The way is the best. The college not do much. She still gave it the stamp if approval. :-). Thanks for the idea of adding it to water. :-)

      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!

      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!!
