I just received my samples of Unjury Protein. I bought one of each sample they had. Tonight I tried the vanilla... it says to mix it with milk, soy milk, coffee, or any of your favorite beverage. Well since I'm on my pre op diet I decided to mix it with Water - it wasn't great at all. As a matter of fact, it was pretty bad. I've been told that Unjury is pretty good. Does anyone know if I should have mixed it with the milk??

Any advise on protein is helpful. I get banded in just a couple of days and I'm trying to see what I like best.

Bleh. I wouldn't mix any of the powders w/just Water. I got the Unjury samples and have mixed them with 60-cal no sugar pudding (when you mix it it becomes runny like pudding Soup, but still tasty) and in a smoothie... couldn't tell at all. For the liquid stage, I'd suggest the Isopure drinks w/40 g Protein in a bottle... the only one I've tried so far is the orange, and it was pretty good... a bit of an aftertaste, but ok. I've also tried the Micellar milk w/low-carb chai tea and that was good... a chai-tea latte w/lots of protein. The bariatriceating.com site has a variety pack w/recipes, you could check that out. It's a very personal thing, the whole protein powder/drink thing... good luck figuring out what works for you!

For the most part I use unjury. I mix 1 scoop with 1 cup of skim milk...and throw it in the blender to avoid clumps...

Very rarely do I drink it with just powder and milk...

I normally add fruit to the vanilla... or a dash of cinnamon (kinda tastes like a cinnamon bun), or my fav. is to mix 1 scoop of vanilla with 1 cup of flat diet orange soda... tastes like a creamcicle.. yum.

With the chocolate I add a half banana and sometimes a little Peanut Butter.

Also from time to time I use the unflavored in my crystal light.

if you go to www.unjury.com they have a recipe page...

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
