I'm having trouble getting a protein source I like. HELP! !

[hpendleton0126 2]

I'm two weeks post op and I'm burned out on the Protein Shakes I was drinking and now I've tried GNC brand of powder and I can't stand the taste it gives off and the way it changes the taste of the food I put it in. If tried it in Soups and smoothies. I was hoping that the taste of the fruit would mask the taste of the powder but nope. Now I'm stuck I don't know what else to do. My Dr has me on a full liquid diet for one more week.

Isopure Zero Carb is a ready to drink bottled liquid that looks like kool ade and comes in fruity flavors. It has 40 g. of Protein per bottle. I drink it every day.

I bought those too. I tried the apple one today and I am feeling really nauseous now. The after taste to me is getting me.

I hear that if something at GNC doesn't work out you can take it back..

As for the shakes I know it gets old but keep chugging (lol chugging get it ) along because they are so very important.

If it's just a question of bored (with your old shakes) and not throwing up that is good. Look at them like the necessary "medicine" to help your body heal. Also try buying some Torini SF syrups to help change the flavor a bit or even PB2 powder

Today I a had peach mango flavor mixed with some Water and a Crystal Light Peach Iced Tea single serve packet. Makes it taste much better.

Where do I get Isopure Zero Carb? At GNC? Is it really expensive? I found some online but they only had 15 grams of Protein in it. The bottles were 8 ounces. How large is the bottle that has 40 grams?

GNC has it and they are 20oz. bottles. I ordered a whole case of it online.

You can mix the Isopure with Water, power aid zero, Crystal light or tea to make it taste better but really try because that stuff is Protein gold.

I also used to make sugar free pudding and blend injury plain Protein Powder into it. Tastes great and was about 17 grams of Protein per serving.

Have you tried the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein powder? I ordered the sample kit awhile ago and I just re-ordered a few jugs of the vanilla and the chocolate Splendor. I enjoy the flavor of those with skim milk or unsweetened vanilla almond milk. I used to buy Allmax Isoflex whey Protein Isolate powder from GNC until I got hooked on the Unjury ones. Shipping is a bit expensive to Canada, but it's well worth it for the taste!

Right now I am sipping on Unjury strawberry mixed with Crystal Lite Lemonade. Also, I put their unflavored Protein in my food.< /p>

I had the Muscle Milk Light during my liquid diet before surgery and still drink it now. I got the chocolate flavor and found it quite easy to drink.

Try Unjury chicken broth, it's very different and 20 g Protein. I also switch up my protein powders and use hemp protein and Amazing Meal, as well as whey. Try a sample pack of Matrix flavors, too. I use Premier Protein premade shakes for carry and go, but they do get on my nerves if I have too many.

I buy the Isopure zero carb drinks online thru the Vitamin store, they are cheaper online and once you sign up for rewards they will send you 20 % off coupons. When i was on my full liquid diet it included Soups, yogurt and puddings. I like baritric advantage WonderSlim shakes and puddings i found it much easier to eat the pudding than drink the shake. I also use broths chicken or vegtable when making the Unjury Protein soups

You might also look in the Protein Powder section of the food and Nutrition forum for more ideas.

I love Unjury unflavored. I mix it in oatmeal and cottage cheese. You can't even taste it and it has 20 grms a scoop. I also add a scoop to a bottled Water along with a flavor stick. I like lemon, orange and Hawaiian Punch. I hate is Isopure drinks. They leave a weird dry coating in you mouth. Unjury is one million times better.
