How to heat protein powder?



Recommended Posts

I've searched and searched. I want to add unflavored Protein powder to my hot chocolate. How do I do that without it curdling? Thanks!

I ordered Protein sample packs from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury.

Included a chicken Soup flavor. The instructions said to not heat above 140 degrees and advised to use a food thermometer.

Hope that is helpful.

I make a Protein coffee each day. What I do is mix my Protein with about 2 oz. of soy milk in my Ninja, usually the night before to use the next morning. I do this so it will settle and not be foamy. In the morning I brew a cup of coffee in my Keurig and add the protein mix. It blends great! Yes, the mix is a bit cold but not too bad the coffee is still hot.

Use Piping Rock unflavored Protein. I have not had a problem with "cottage cheese" by using this. It is also cheapest protein I have found. It is my absolutely favorite protein, and it can be used with liquid heated in the micro for about 1 min without curdling.

I use GENEPRO powder in Soup and no curdling or clumping and I heat it up! But I want to try a sample pack of different cocoa and coffee from bariatric pantry because I'd pay more to have it premixed if it tasted awesome!

You could check some of theirs out? I'm ready to try Decaf coffee with Protein... Maybe today.

I'd say you are doing really good. I don't know if this is the right answer for you, but at that stage I focused on Water, Vitamins, and Protein - in that order. I don't know if I was actually getting 4 oz at each meal although the broth did go down like Water. I just focused on getting in more and more Protein each day. I never added protein to my Soups. I just drank Protein shakes. It starts to get much easier to get the required protein and water in each day.

Best of luck!

I just had almond/coconut milk with unjury.

Used the chocolate splendor flavor mixed in a bottle then heated up with a sprig of whip cream.

Heaven on earth and 20+ grams Protein,

Warm things sure feel better and go down easier!

No clumping at all. I didn't make it super hot but it sure was good!

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
