I was using those baby bel lights to supplement my Protein... my surgeon wants me to do another shake... I too do one in the morning... and boy do I hate it. He said the try the unjury chicken noodle soup..so that's gonna be my next purchase. I have seen pretty good reviews.

It has noodles in it? I can't have any bread/pasta/rice

I drink a pure Protein Shake, bananna and chocolate are great, then have an Isopure drink later that day. Those two together make up 75 g of Protein. Then whatever protein I eat I hit 100 without a problem. Yes they are expensive, but I get them by the case twice a month. I paid more for fast food per month pre surgery.

How far post op is everyone who is eating the Protein bars?

I just called my nutritionist and I'm not allowed Protein Bars until 1 year post-op

I personally find Protein bars way too sweet

My suregon required me to get min. 64 grams of Protein daily. You can get lots of protein in by eating cottage cheese (which I love), yogurt (plain & low or non fat). I can eat nuts (7 monnths post op) but I watch and only have a very tiny hand full as a snack. You can have a Protein Shake as a afternoon snack too. I make my protein shake with minimal liquid, either low fat milk or Water and two scoops of Protein Powder which in my brand its 50 grams of protein so I get my major jolt of proetin from my shake which I have as a mid morning snack or as a brekfast.

Their staff are wonderful and easy to work with. The respond to emails quickly. I have my Vitamins and Protein thru them and have it set up for auto ship. If I get ahead or behind on my stock I just email them and make adjustments to my next delivery. No pushy sales staff.

I have a small container of each of the Unjury that I carry in my lunch bag. I will mix it with coffee or crystal light (make sure the coffee or hot Water cools to 109' like they say or it turns to grit) .

Take a water bottle add the crystal light and unflavored Unjury and shake. 20 grams of Protein.< /p>

Is it really "unflavored?" Does it have some flavor? I tried some of the nectar mixes and they taste like pure Protein with a little bit of flavor =P

The Unjury is unflavored, but it does have a specific taste. I have found that it works best for me in savory foods. It improves the flavor of Soups and other savory foods. I tried it in crystal light and the taste was very prominent and unappealing. I really liked the sample of Unjury chicken broth I ate. I would recommend it! Just make absolutely sure to check the Water temp with a thermometer before you add the protein!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
