Can't Get All My Protein In

My surgeon said I need to have no less than 80 grams of Protein per day.

Problem is I'm rarely home because of work and school so I just can't seem to get the 80 grams in. There's just not enough time in the day!!!

I drink a 30g Protein shake every morning. I was taking nuts to school with me but my surgeon said they're too fatty and to stop :/ I'd really prefer to not have to bring a cooler with me everywhere I go.

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.

I've tried An ordered the unjury chicken soup and its good. I'm going to use it for my clear liquid stage.

I ordered some too

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.

I should be a unjury sales rep lmao I love there product I cannot wait to get my cheese protein powder but every listen to directions or it will clump

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.

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 have a sample and was scared to try it...lol. I like the Adkins mocha latte and the GNC total lean. All ready to drink... They taste sooo much better than the ones you make!
