Anyone else find powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury to be disgusting? I tried the strawberry one and I just can't get it down. I'm on my last week of my 2 week pre-op diet. And I know I have to do Clear liquids for the first 2 weeks after surgery. Any suggestions?

I didn't like any of the unjury products :-P For my clear liquids, I used the Isopure ready to drink fruit flavored drinks, and Syntrax nectar.

When I went to full liquids and beyond, I used Premier Protein shakes and some Isopure powders (which I HATE now and gave away). Now that I'm in my 9th week post-op, I use an unflavored Protein powder in my morning coffee and eat high-protein foods mostly. Good luck!

The Protein powders are such a personal matter of taste. For me, the unjury ones are my favorites. Did you make the strawberry sorbet with Water? I made it with crystal light lemonade and it wasn't bad. I do the same thing with the fruity Syntrax nectar powders - mix with crystal light - cuts the "protein-y" taste and smell a bit. The Isopure zero crab ready to drink are a good option for the Clear Liquids phase - you can find them easily at any GNC - although I'll be honest, while I didn't think they were horrible tasting, I struggled to get those down and I would only drink half a bottle a day and then switch to drinking something else.

I bought some of the unflavored unjury to add to applesauce and maybe broths. when I opened it I recoiled at the smell - I haven't mixed it in with anything yet. Not sure if I want to now that I have smelled it. :blink: (I am only on day 1 of liquids)

I like Protein shakes with 1/2 a banana. Also, I put in 1T of sugar free pudding powder into the blender and add ice and Water. It makes it creamy like a milkshake.

I do not like the strawberry at all. However I enjoyed the chocolate one mixed with milk and the chicken Soup one during the clear liquid phase. I also have been putting the unflavored in my yogurt and some Soups and it mixes very well and to me it is virtually tasteless!

I hate all brands of strawberry. And I got the starter pack for unjury and the only one I really like and use is the chicken broth. The chocolate splendor is ok but premier is better to me.

I can't stand the Bariatric Advantage that I bought at docs. I am going to force myself to finish some but taking an unopened one to a support group meeting to give away.

Other than premier which is high Protein and so convenient the Isopure unflavored is my back up to Unjury chicken. It is all a matter of individual tastes! Buy small and sample!

I love unjury. I look forward to it so much I could skip meals to just have a Protein shake! Try mixing the flavors. I also use Click coffee. My favorites are mixing 1/2 and 1/2 chocolate and vanilla, chocolate and coffee, vanilla and coffee. I also add a spoon of Truvia. Sometimes I also add half spoon of Decaf coffee or whole coffee Beans in the blender with 1/2 Water and 1/2 soy milk. I think mixing things up is the secret to enjoying Protein drinks.

I didn't like the Unjury brand of Protein Powder either. For a clear liquid source I liked the About Time drinks and for Protein Shake I like Quest. Also I like the Growing Naturals organic rice Protein powder for a vegan choice. It's a bit lighter tasting and I like the change now and again.

      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...

      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
