I desperately need to increase my Protein levels, but I have not yet found a shake I can actually drink they all make me gag and I can only get in one or two swallows. Everyone keeps talking about the unflavored Unjury powder I can add to my food and get in more protein that way.

I went to the unjury site and dang it is expensive. It would cost me 20$ (without shipping0 every week just to get in the extra 40g of protein a dayI am trying to increase my protein by. That is pretty steep. Does anyone know where I can buy it for cheaper or know of as good a product as the unflavored Protein Powder that I can buy?

I need to do this soon cause I can only seem to get in 45 to 50 g of protein a day on a good day through just my food. So HELP!!

I will resort to the extra money if I have to, but would rather not.

Thanks

Protein is out to kill me I swear!!! :)

I just bought and tried Isopure. one serving has 50g of protien and doesn't taste that bad. I think much better than the Bariatric Advantage. Unjury is good also but maybe give isopure a shot if you haven't already.

I have a bag of Isopure that im not using. I know people don't like to buy things from people that's been open, but I wasn't able to drink it and it's just sitting in my cabinet. I think it's the aspartame.

I had this same problem but I decided to experiment. I bought some different flavors of sugar free pudding mix. I use vanilla Protein powder mix mainly as my base then I add two tbs spoons of the sugar free pudding mix to the powder with some ice, shake and enjoy. I also use chocolate, you can mix and match flavors it really makes a big difference. Hope this helps

Ok I bought the unflavored Unjury Protein powder. I read where people put it in with their crystal light. I tried that this morning with orange crystal light and yuck! It still had a bad taste & the smell gets me. Also, I hate the foam after you shake it, that's yucky too.

I make a smoothie with whey Protein powder, frozen berries, banana, yogurt milk and ice. It is wonderful and has 32 grams of protein. I have it for dinner sometimes. There is also special k protein plus and milk for b'fast. I like pure Protein Shakes but cannot do protein powders except in the smoothie.

      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! 😞
