Is UnJury worth it?



Recommended Posts

I was just wondering if powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury is worth the price or if other Protein Drinks are just as good? Also I would like any feedback on everyone's favorite flavors and brands.

Thanks guys!

I ordered Unjury samples first. I just love it!!

except for the chicken broth I think it is too high in sodium.

I have bought other GNC and Vitamin world and the price is about the same as the unjury.

To me it is a good product for the price.

But if there is anything else better and cheaper I am open to suggestions!!!

I think it is. I've tried a few different and Unjury is the best tasting and the most filling. If you average the cost per serving against other Protein drinks, it isn't really expensive. Just a word, though. The unflavored is absolutely disgusting. chocolate and vanilla are the best.

Thanks for all the opinions so far, keep em coming!!:clap2:

Another question about the unflavored. I've seen a lot of comments on it being absolutely horrid. Are you giving an opinion of it on its own or mixed in with other foods???

Again thanks for all the info!!!!:bounce:

I've used the unflavored more than any other. I don't think it's horrid at all. I've mixed it with pudding, mashed potatoes, and oatmeal and couldn't taste it or smell it. I didn't like it mixed with Propel but it wasn't horrid.

I use the unflavored in sugar-free fat-free instant pudding and it's great--I'm even able to double up on the Protein. But I tried the unflavored in a can of soup-to-go from Campbells that was just warm (not hot) and it was nasty!

The chicken broth is okay in a pinch--but I don't find the chocolate to be that great.

I'm sold on the WPI (whey Protein isolate) that I get from Amazon.com: Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, books, DVDs & more in chocolate malt and belgian chocolate flavors (and I get them with free shipping and no tax--what more could you ask for?!) Now they taste fabulous, just mixed with Water in a shaker--not even in a blender!

I've been buying 2# containers for $27.99 and just bought a 5# container for $47.90. (and whoa! It came in BUCKET!!!) :)

I think it is worth the price. It mixes in with a spoon and doesn't taste chalky like some Protein Shakes I have had. I mix the chocolate and vanilla with skim milk and the strawberry with Crystal Light lemonade. It is really smooth and easy to drink. If you order regularly you can get a discount on the Unjury website. Every little bit helps. :)

I just tried the strawberry in skim milk for my lunch. It is pretty good. I think I like it better in lemonade but I have to get my Calcium in somehow. I tried the unflavored in oatmeal but it gave it an odd consistency. I just need to experiement a little more with it. It came with a lot of interesting recipes that I want to try.

The best part is that you can stir it with a spoon and don't need a blender.

I really appreciate all the feedback Keep all the replies coming!:)

I was kinda basing my observation that it was kinda expensive based on the "scoops" per container. Looked like there weren't many servings in one container.

I will probably just go ahead and order the chocolate, vanilla and unflavored. The chicken Soup seems to be getting very low marks!

I tried the unflavored first in some cranberry/raspberry juice and I personally don't think it added any flavor, but I agree with the person that mentioned that it smells bad. Actually, I think all of them do if a line of it stays at the top (you know how that happens when you mix powder into liquid).

I tried the chicken flavor and it wasn't fabulous, but I think it was just as good as any broth and has quite a bit of Protein.

I put the chocolate, vanilla and strawberry sorbet in milk (at different times of course) and the chocolate was the only one that I thought, "This is really good."

I got the 5 lb container of vanilla Body Fortress at Walmart for about $36 and it is pretty good. Originally I mixed 2 scoops with 2 cups of 1% milk to replace Breakfast and the only thing I didn't like about it was that I couldn't get all the lumps out. This morning for the first time I started with 1 cup of luke warm Water, put the 2 scoops in and mixed it up well and then added 1 cup of 1%. It was still good and NO LUMPS!!! It kind of has a coconutty taste to it.

I plan to get more of the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and now that I see that Amazon has belgium chocolate (from the earlier posting) I'm going to check that out too!

      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!!
