Have you tried this? Is it the unflavored really as great as I've read other places online? I have a milk allergy. I was told not to be concerned with this one? Should I just wait til my consult? I am trying to make smoothies for Breakfast. I already have all the fruit, yogurt, and small bags. Where to start?

I haven't tried the unflavored in a beverage, but I have mixed it into foods and I liked it. I didn't think it had a very noticable flavor. I did try the strawberry sorbet and their chocolate, and I liked them both. They even have a chicken broth that is tasty.

I was thinking chicken broth and Unflavored. I am allergic to strawberries and chocolate.

My Dr wasn't a fan of the "shakes" because the 2nd ingredient is fructose. However, the chicken broth is yummy and got a thumbs up. I haven't tried the unflavored, but think I may get some and "protein up" my own broth.

I am just starting my journey. So, I am learning. Just figuring out where to start. I have my consult next Friday.

The chicken broth is yummy. It really helped to bring in a more normal flavor during my liquids phase AND it gave me protein!

The unflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury is good too. I suggest taking the scoop and marking tablespoon lines on it to use on smaller serving sizes. Just throw a tablespoon in some Soup and viola its Protein fortified.

On either powder : make sure it is not put into boiling Water as the Proteins will denature and curdle (yuck). Hot Water is the key for the broth, I put the unflavored on cold stuff and give it a stir (like pudding)

@@justme29 you can do this with your allergies. No problem. Good luck at your intake!

Thank you! I will order it. I was nervous. I plan to get the single serve packets to start with to make things a little easier. Would that be too much for one serving?

I saw they have some different recipes on their site. Have you tried any of those?

I got my Unjury on Thursday. I have yet to mix it and try it. I have yogurt and fruit. This is where I will start. I got 10 unflavored and 4 chicken Soup to start. Surgeon said to just try them out and see what my stomach will tolerate prior to actually needing to do liquid diet. I know they promote Advantage? They have a discount code. And seemed the Vitamins on there looked doable with the flavor options and chewable.< /p>

My nutritionist was ok with Unjury and it is way less $$$ than the other one I was using. I like the taste. After hearing the reviews about the chicken broth I'm going to have to try it.

I have not tried it just yet. I figured that one would be for mixing in foods/broth which has a bland taste. I would guess having the unflavored stocked in higher quantities will be best if my stomach tolerates it. Of course they have several other flavors but I'd be nervous to try with all my allergies. Hope you like it!

I have only tried the unflavored so far. I had spent 2 hours making fruit and yogurt smoothies in the Ninja. I broke them all down in their own personal freezer bags, well I used breast milk bags because they have the oz measurements on them and work great for storing. It took me a long time to move forward. But I found the Protein to be too chalky tasting for me. I'm thinking maybe I have to put only 1/2 in at a time or something. I only got down half an oz of the smoothie. I let it melt down from frozen then added Protein. Did I do this wrong?

I have finally tried. How do I get rid of the chalky taste? Should I be putting unflavored in food rather than smoothie? I was thinking the chicken Soup would be for broths. I may move to trying that. But now I'm nervous to waste it if I'm not doing something right because I was only able to get half an oz down without gagging.

Unjury has a starter kit that gives you two packets of each flavor - chocolate splendor, vanilla, strawberry, chicken Soup, and unflavored - plus a good thermometer and a Blender Bottle, for around $20.

What would I need the thermometer for? I already bought 3 blender bottles. I'm hesitant to try the other flavors due to allergies. Possibly I could try the vanilla.

      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.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
