I think you can mix it with anything you want. I used to mix it with skim milk (I drink more premade shakes now) but I'm sure Water would be fine too.

You can mix it with anything you want. Be careful with hot liquids - if it is too hot it turns into a weird consistency. I mix the chocolate with skim milk & sometimes coffee. I use the strawberry in lemonade Crystal lite & Water.

You can probably mix it with whatever you want. I use primarily skim milk, some I've seen use soy milk or almond milk also with the chocolate. I really like the 2% milk better, but not on the hips. I like unflavored with Crystal Light lemonade also. Even though alot of physicians don't recommend Protein shakes, I drink 2 a day to keep my Protein levels up. It made a big difference for me in terms on losing weight more consistently and getting some muscle tone.

And as far as Protein Shakes go...I haven't found one that is better than unjury. But everyone's palate is different. Good luck!

What brand did you find that is unflavored? Where can I find it? I have tried 5 different kinds and I am tired of wasting my money. I can't seem to handle the taste of any of it!:mellow:

Thanks

unjury makes an unflavored version. They also have a chicken Soup version that isn't half bad. Just watch the temperature. The liquid can't be above 130F or the proteim will clump up. Not a pretty mixture.

I'm planning to mix the unflavored with some chicken or beef broth from Safeway for my dinner tonight. The broth has only 1g of Protein by itself, so adding the unflavored should help bring up the nutrition level.

As for the chocolate question: It's best with milk, but will work with Water (coffee is hot Water, after all.) Some people have mentioned adding SF pudding to it, to thicken it up some. I haven't tried that yet. Experiment and see what you come up with.

Good luck!

Hi!

I have mixed my strawberry sorbert one with water! Not as tasty, but it works!

Good Luck

Not a big fan of the strawberry but I drank it anyway to add variety while on the full liquid phase. I usually mixed it up & put in the fridge in the morning and drink for my afternoon "snack". As long as it was super cold it was great.

Followup to the unflavored mixed with beef broth I tried for dinner last night: Don't do it. It was nasty. The flavor was too intense, and no matter what I did to it to season/modify it, there was no way out. It went down the sink.

Ended up drinking a Muscle Milk Light shake for dinner. 20g Protein, 10g carbs. I'm finding the flavor is consistent, and it's quickly turning into the only shake flavor I can drink. I was a real fan of unjury pre-op, but for some reason post-op, I'm not feeling it nearly as much.

Anyone else finding their post-op taste buds are different?

I'm also finding my love of coffee is subsiding, too. Used to drink several cups every morning. Now I drink maybe a half cup, and I'm done. Just not into it. Since I live near Seattle, home of Starbucks and Tullys and a zillion other coffee roasters, I may be run out of town! LOL! :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
