Protein crystals?



Recommended Posts

Is there such a thing as Protein crystals that you can add to Water that does not make it milky, but let's it stay the consistency of water? If so, does it come unflavored? I need to figure out how to get protein during clear liquid post surgery stage and isoprene tastes like metal to me. Any suggestions are welcome.

Syntrax Nectar powder mixes with Water into a koolaid-type drink. Comes in Apple, cherry, grape, dragon fruit, tropical, lemonade, peach, and iced tea flavors (at least those are the ones I've tried). Isopure is the only thing that ever made me gag....these are WAY better

I heard about Isopure Protein Drink and figured i'd try them since i too am having problems getting all my Protein in. I'm 1 month post op and it's the most difficult thus far. It was the grossest thing ever. Smelled like rotten eggs and made me gag. No good.

The Syntrax website is offering a special right now. It is a great deal of 15 single serving packs in 15 different flavors for $16.99 including shipping. To order call 866-333-7403 ext 800. Their hours are Mon-Fri 8am-5pm central time. It is a limit of 1 per household. I ordered it last week on Monday and had it by Friday. I wish the limit wasn't in place because I love these single serving sizes for traveling and on the go. It would be a way for you to try the different flavors for less $. I hope this helps.

Where do You get these fruit flavored Protein drinks? I am having trouble with milky and whey products after surg. However yogurt and puddings and cottage cheese are fine my Protein shakes are harsh to bare. A fruit flavored drink may be the way to go to get the Protein in??? Can you tell me where You get them?

      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... :(
