I love the Unjury unflavored. It is not bad at all and you can add it to almost anything! I use it to make smoothies with FF yogurt and fruit, I add ice and blend, yum!

I guess I am lucky - no liquid diet pre-op. However, I have been following the nutritionist recommendation for my food plan after banding. 1400 cal and 90 gm Protein per day. I have to admit the first week was tough, but I have gotten used to it. So far I am down 14 lbs since I met with her on June 30! The hardest part was giving up caffeine - no more Starbucks stops in the morning. It does save money! I am not looking forward to the liquid only phase. I have been trying different Protein shakes and trying to find what I like so I have options. I like the unjury products and Bariatric Essentials, not too bad, not too chalky!

I am getting banded on August 5th! It is coming up really quick - I am excited but nervous at the same time!

I really like the unjury. They taste really great! I love the vanilla. I just ordered some of the plain - I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but I have heard that you can't taste it when mixed. I have had to order it online, but the turn around was pretty quick. I had some samples from the doctors office before I ordered, so that helped, didn't have to spend a lot of money not knowing if I liked it or if it worked.

Hi~ I am new to the site. I live in Bend, Oregon and I am looking forward to my surgery on Aug 5th. I am sure I am like others, excited and nervous about this new stage in my life. I am a school teacher, so I am glad to be able to have surgery before school kicks in, it will give me time to adjust and plan for the school year. I am looking forward to being healthier and being able to participate in activities that I have had to give up. My horse is looking forward to some exercise! I am also looking forward to spending some time hiking in the mountains with my husband and my dogs! I have two teenagers, one will be a senior this year and the other will be a freshman in high school. Both of them will attend the high school where my husband and I teach - should be a fun year! I look forward to getting to know some of you as I take off on this journey! Kristen
