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.

      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.
