The last couple days the board has given me a server error? Anyways, glad to have you guys back to talk to, LOL

I just ordered the unjury sampler pack- some chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, chicken Soup and unflavored.

What do you guys think of this protein- I like the thought of the unflavored to add to things to get more Protein in.

I can't have soy stuff, this is whey....

Also, what ready to drink Protein stuff do you drink? And what do you think of yogurt as a source of protein?

I am pretty tight in the morning so I have a Premier Protein drink every morning.. They are from costco and they are 130 cals for 30 grams of Protein. I am lazy to do the powders but I used the GNC in the post op phase. Greek yogurt is great for protein and works great as sour cream. I dont like the sweet ones.

I have been using Jay Robb whey Protein Powder. I really like the fact that is uses Stevia rather than artificial sweeteners or sucralose. I know the Vitamin Shoppe has there own version with Stevia that is a few bucks less. That being said, Jay Robb is the only one I have tried thus far. I am going to get some samples at at local shop, which you can also order online at www.nashuanutrition.com. They specialize in nutrition for weight loss and bariatric patients. I believe online the samples are $1.95 each, not sure if they are powder or ready to drink. They may have both. Good luck finding one that works for you :)

Unjury is the Protein Powder that I purchased also. I can't stand the vitamin/medicine taste of other Protein powder. I tried at least 5 of the canned and bottled Proteins and couldn't drink any of them. I think Unjury is the best. My husband just started Protein Shakes along with me. I think I need to be careful of what I add to the powder. I was adding 8oz. of 100% fruit juice and found my blood sugar went up so now I am blending it with Unsweetened vanilla Almond Milk from Traders Joe. Do you have a Oster individual blender? They sell them at Target for $19.99. You mix what you want with your Unjury and then put on your sipper lid and off you go. Great product.

I use Dymatize Elite Protein in Gourmet Vanilla-114 calories, 23 g of protein, 2 g carbs and ZERO Sugar- it tastes like vanilla milk- even tastier when you add 2 frozen strawberries, 1 tsp of honey and 1 tsp flax seed oil and it is a great shake..... the 5lb container makes 73+ shakes and was $46 at the Vitamin Shoppe so it was $0.63 a shake.< /p>

I use the Unjury unflavored Protein powder a lot. I mix Sugar Free Chocolate pudding cup with a little fat free cool whip and a half a scoop of protein powder and is makes a wonderful chocolate mousse. Its also good mixed with lemonade or other flavored waters. Its a great way to supplement your protein intake.

I really like the Premier Protein drink too! Lower carve than most. I also use 0 fat Greek yogurt to add Protein to Soups, scrambled eggs ect. It's really good in soups during the 1st stages.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
