Is there a protein powder that disolves?



Recommended Posts

I'm struggling with my Protein Powder at the moment. I don't have a small fortune to spend on trying all the different types of Protein out there. I hate the gritty protein powders that don't disolve in my smoothies and such. Does anyone have any suggestions for protein powder that disolves, especially if it comes unflavored so I can use it in more things without altering the taste?

Most folks LOVE unjury.

unjury.com

I just went there and ordered one sample packet of the chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and three of the unflavored Protein. All together it was $13.45 including shipping for the six packets. I'd rahter pay that than pay $20 to $40 for a large amount of gross stuff.

I'm looking for unflavored Protein that I can put in HOT foods. Haven't found it yet, anyone?

I haven't had any Protein yet that I've tried in hot foods. I think I remember hearing something about not mixing in protein at high temperatures, though. Someone else will likely have more info on that, but just wanted to throw it out as a caution. steph

I thought the strawberry Unjury was the NASTIEST think ever. I ordered a big container of the chocolate because everyone raved about the taste. It smelled good when I opened it. I tried it and it is really not that good. But I am not sure if it is just me or the soy or whey that is in it that I am not used to. I didn't even use the whole container because I found some really yummy already made shakes that I found at Albertsons. I am not remembering the name of the shake right now, but you could search my posts and find it. They were YUMMY in my opinion and tasted like a shake. Good luck on finding the right one, and remember you won't likely be on the Protein Shakes for long. Deanna

try beneprotein. I got it online at walgreens.com. It's about $11 with shipping. I have been using it in my morning smoothies for a couple of months now and it seems to do the trick. It was actually the Protein powder the nurse at my dr's office suggested, she also has a lap band.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
