Newly sleeved on December 30th and having poor appetite.

Jello, isopure, and broth taste awful. Also experiencing slight stomach pains and growling when I drink water. Is this normal?

Yup...totally normal, give it time...but you must force yourself to drink, dehydration can happen very quickly.

the Isopure tastes awful no matter when you drink it. Toss it - it is disgusting.

Good luck!

Try Vitamin Water Zero, G2, decaf tea. Try different temperature water. Try mixing apple juice with water. Sugar free ice pops are good too.

Most people have to shop around a bit to find a protein drink that works for them. Don't feel as if you are stuck with Isopure. Find one you can tolerate. It will make all that sipping mch easier.

Isopure was what helped me get in 100 grams of protein in everyday starting from Day 3. One 12 ounce serving has 50 grams of protein. Plus, it has added vitamins and minerals that are helpful during your recovery. I don't drink it for the taste, but for all of its other health and weight loss benefits. It is still one of my primary protein sources 3 months out.

Shakes make me gag but I force to drink it. Broth is tasteless and I wondering how I am going to do this for 2 weeks until I can have strained creamy soups. This is tough.
