So I brought the unflavored Unjury to mix into my Jello and Fruit Drinks, and I can smell and taste everything -.-.

I thought the jello would be the same consistency and taste n it doesn't :(. Also my mix with the sf fruit punch is so thick n gritty I can't bare to drink it without gagging. Has anyone else experienced this and are there ways to make the mixes better?

I bought 2 tubs of the stuff, unflavored and vanilla..........had to give them away, couldn't stand the smell or taste. I haven't found anything l like. I ended up going back to Optifast to suplument when needed. I try to eat all my Protein instead of drink it, sometimes I need to boost my Protein intake with the drink. good luck.

I am not sure if the powder is made to be added to fruit drinks or Jello. Have you tried yogart and smoothies???

I never liked the unjury products. I buy the unflavored Protein powder from GNC. It does cloud my drink' date=' but I do not taste any difference and it is not gritty.[/quote']

What's the name of the brand?

Post op, you can eat Soup (add cottage cheese and put in a blender for protein), greek yogurt, pudding. (if your dr lets you, mine did for liquid)...........I drank my pre op Optifast post op, because I couldn't stomach anything. You can make smoothies with yogurt and fruit (no seeds), you might be able to add some of the powder to a smoothie.< /p>

I hate the Unjury non flavored. I agree you can taste and smell it. Makes me gag!! I've tried over six different brands of protien shakes and can't find one I like. I force myself to drink three a day due to being on liquids still and it's miserable.

The only thing I've ever been able to stomach is Optifast - in Australia it's 20 g Protein and because ith Meal Replacement rich inother nutrients too. And it mixes with Water, so at 150 calories I do feel I can slip it in as a snack/supplement (not th I ever do anymore). I can't drink Protein Shakes unless they're mixed with milk which pushes up the calorie count quite a bit.

powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and alot of other protiens are heat senstitive.

I have tried Unjury unflavored and mixed it into cool drinks without a problem.

There are special directions for mixing it into jello(gelatin)

I know they have the directions on their website(unjury.com).

Also did you use a Blender Bottle? that seems to help too.

Please don't give up on your bariactric protien.

I love EAS it taste good. I never liked any other Protein Drink but I drank them because I had too. Your taste changes after surgery. I think we should open a Bari bar and serve good drinks lol

Chocorite is awesome but its not a clear one, it comes in flavors. They taste like cake batter and keep me full for 5-6 hours in the am. I eat bfast at 7am and lunch after 1pm.

      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.
