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 like the Unjury chocolate and unflavored the best. I have had so much of the chocolate on this liquid diet that I am getting tired of it but it is the best tasting protein shake I have found. The unflavored is awesome because you can't taste it at all. If you don't stir enough or put it in something too hot, it will form little chunks. I tried a samle of the chiken flavor and it was pretty good too. Very salty and a lot of garlic flavor. I think the best is unflavored though because you can put it in anything. Today, we had a Christmas dinner at Olive Garden at work. I took some unflavored powder in a ziploc and asked for strained soup. I poured it in, mixed it up and BAM! 20 grams of protein.

I used Unjury for pre and post-op, while I ate it at the time, can't stomach it now.

I now use Profect, it comes it a tube with 100cal and 25 grams of protien. There are about 12 different flavors, and you can get them mixed. You order directly from their web site. The are a little more expensive, but they have great taste, don't have to be refridgerated, can be store up to 120 degrees. I can't eat in the morning, so I drink one of them.

I like them, give it a try if you want.

Okay, I have an unjury question. I made some chicken broth tonight. Impossible to get it mixed, so I put it in the blender. Then I just get chicken broth flavored foam. Not the best thing when I'm one day post op and quite gassy! AND, it still had clumps of powder in it! How can I get it smooth? I absolutely cannot stomach clumpy broth!

okay ... problem solved. The water was too hot! Tried again and I have smooth salty chicken broth. (And TBH, I am QUITE enjoying the salt right about now!)

Don't heat the water too hot. I love the chicken noodle. it tastes like campbell's w/o the chicken and noodle. LOL!

Unjury has a yucky smell and aftertaste. It makes me want to throw up just smelling it and I certainly cannot drink it. If you are sensitive to food smells, Unjury is not for you.

:eek:ok what is up with the restroom #1 color......my..oh..my it is now so bright....

I love Unjury... BUT, when you mix it with coffee... it clumps. You have to watch how hot it is.

I use a food thermometer to make sure the food is below 130 degrees before I add the Unjury and then it mixes fine.

I always make sure that whatever I put unjury in, it is only warm and not hot. If it clumps I just stir, stir, stir. A lot of the clumps will come out that way. Also, you can use your spoon to push the clumps against the side of your bowl and kind of squish them. As you do that and stir, they will disappear. That way, if you have a little patience, you haven't wasted it and you can still enjoy it.

Thanks for the tip, I'm glad I didn't waste my money ordering any. I am sensitive to food smells, I haven't been able to find any Protein that I can drink except for the Isopure Zero Carb drinks. I was going to order some Unjury in hopes that it wouldn't be stinky to me, so I'm glad you posted.

The only smell I noticed was with the unflavored. You should go on Unjury's website and order some sample packets. They are only about $2.00 and that way you can test different ones. I wouldn't give up so easily. Unjury is worth it.

That's me.. can't stand the smell of things. If it smells bad.. I gag.. not to mention putting it in my mouth.. ick!!!

Tarheelluv.. have you tried the Profect liquidy stuff?

I just got a canned Protein drink (I usually can't stand them, but they're awfully convenient for on-the-go) from Amazon.com: Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, books, DVDs & more called "ZOIC" in the belgian chocolate flavor and compared it to Slim Fast Lo Carb.

It was a little thinner consistency but didn't taste too bad at all --AND

(1) Only 110 calories for an 11 oz. can versus 190 for Slim Fast Lo Carb

(2) Has 1 gram of fat to Slim Fast Lo Carb 9 grams of fat,

(3) Has 5 grams of carbs to Slim Fast Lo Carb 6 grams,

(4) Has 21 grams of protein to Slim Fast Lo Carb 20 grams.

I'm always on the lookout for the most nutritious now (unlike I did before) but I must say that I've strayed away from unjury (and I'm glad I didn't sign up for regular shipments!).

All I'll say is that you have to continue looking until you find the right one for you--because this is for the rest of our lives...

I ordered a vanilla protein shake from Herba Life and an unflavored one, some protein bars too. Let's see how it goes.
