Question for people who use Genepro protein powder



Recommended Posts

For people who use the Musclegen GENEPRO powder, what do you mix it with? juice? I get mine in the mail today and I want to be all set to start it tonight or in the morning. I am newly sleeved (2.5 weeks post op) and I have a volume issue. I am wondering if I can dissolve it in maybe like a 1/2 cup or cup of juice and not taste it.

Oh, and does it have a particular smell to it? I have had a bad issue with Protein drink smells lately.

I am on my fourth bag. I love it. You can add it to anything and it does not change the drink or food. I add it to coffee and I mix it with Crystal Light to get my Water and Protein in. You can smell it in the bag, but I do not detect it in what I mix it with?

@TEXASLADY52- I am so excited to try it! I have a lot of Protein issues since surgery. I know the Protein issues are normal. I am excited to see if it works for me!

I just ordered a bag from Amazon. I have heard that you can mix it with anything, so I'm ready to try it. Any feedback on your experience with it would be great.

I have some too but I'm not going to try it until I start my all liquid diet on Nov. 1st. I'm glad to hear that it really doesn't have a taste. I've tried the Premier strawberry and it was awful. I've heard the chocolate & vanilla are better but if the GENEPRO works, then I'll be set. I've also got the unflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury to try.

@carolk36- I'm so glad to hear this. I am so excited to get it! When I emailed my dietician the nutrition facts and asked her what she thought, she said it was a great option. I have tried the unflavored Protein powders but those all have a horrible taste to them too. I truly hope this one will be flavorless (or close to it). There is a huge difference between something being unflavored and something being flavorless.

Is it chalky like normal Protein Powder?

Nope, it's not chalky either. It disappears! I've been told by my NUT to always use whey isolate and not whey concentrate because the isolate is more absorbable so I was concerned that the GENEPRO Protein didn't say either. I sent the info to my NUT and she said the peptide was just a smaller form of the isolate so I was good to go. I told my surgeon's office about it and they now add it to their list of recommended Proteins for new patients. I gave away all the other Proteins I had bought because I just couldn't stand the whey smell and taste. GENEPRO is the only one I use now.

I hope it works as well for you!

Has anyone found a place that sells samples of the GENEPRO? I would want to try a sample before buying the large bag.

I tried the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury sample of unflavoured...and I couldnt tolerate it ..I tried it in applesauce, cream of wheat and Water...and it didnt work for me.

I hope the GENEPRO is a better option.

Thanks

      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.

      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...
