So if it's 24 g. per full scoop, how much Water does one add to a full scoop of Syntax ?

Oh, nevermind my last question. I saw on Amazon that the directions read 8-16 oz. per full scoop. Thank you! I will give it a shot! :)

HOW MUCH Protein is in one of these drinks.. and is this why you drink one a day? Just my question for you....Do you get other protein , in other ways?

The Isopure ready to drink is 40 grams of protein per 20 oz bottle. I also get protein from pureed meats and I make a 24 oz Protein Shake every morning using 1-2 scoops of Unjury w sf flavored syrups and soy milk, sometimes a spoon of instant coffee, greek yogurt, or a banana etc... I try to make sure that every oz of food or drink counts.

My Nut says the Isopure is lacking in carbs that I need and suggested mixing it with a pure fruit juice. I mix cranberry juice with the fruit punch 8oz isopure and 4oz pure cranberry, it cuts the artificial sweetener taste and has a nice tartness to it.

Was sleeved 10/1 struggled getting in my 60 g of Protein, - do not like the chalky shakes - I recently switched to a Liquid Protein ( New Whey liquid protein ) 42 g of protein in each bottle comes in different favors - they taste nasty drinking it out of the bottle but I mix a third of it with Water in a sports bottle now it just taste like Vitamin water it last a day or two. At Walmart cost about $2.50. Acts as a great supplement to other Proteins and no messy blender!

I am the poster child for herbalife Protein drink mix. The mango peach is so good and has 15 gm Protein for 2 scoops. I sip it all day and meet my protein and Fluid goals. It has a more crystal lite texture, not a thick texture at all. I order it on Amazon and have gone through about a tub a week since my surgery.

I have only tried the pumpkin spice and while I would not call it chalky, it is very very sweet.

I have tried the "ready made" shake from GNC meal shake" pumpkin spice" was the flav..i LOVED IT. it was 170 cal..

and 25 grams of high Protein... ONLY bought one to try it.. I would buy it again. and keep it in the fridge..

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
