I am ordering some Protein for post surgery. I went to the Unjury site but their Protein Drinks are only 20g and I need 25-30. Can anyone recommend something that tastes good with higher protein content?

Use more than one scoop!

Also try Nashua Nutrition, they sell sample servings of lots of flavors. My fave is Peanut Butter ookie! Two scoops will also work! I use a blender to mix mine and frequently add Greek yogurt of the appropriate flavor to the mix!.

I guess I never thought of that because I was buying the sample packs which only contain 20g. I didn't want to buy a big container of it in case I didn't like it. But thank you! :-)

unjury is actually really good. I also found About Time online which has 24g and a little less expensive. I love the chocolate mint flavor. I'd also get samples to see because if you don't like it well, there it will sit!

I buy Premier Protein from costco. They are 30g of Protein, 160 calories, 1 g sugar, 11 oz disposable container (like a juice box). I like chocolate, the vanilla tastes a little funny. But if you heat up the vanilla and mix with a shot or two of espresso it's almost like a latte! They cost $24.99 per box of 18 here in Washington. I think they taste better than Slim Fast or the Atkins brand Protein Shakes, and they have a ton of protein. :)

I use Chocorite, mix it myself. It's $15 a bag for 11 servings on Iherb.com. The vanilla tastes like cake batter, you can add pretty much anything to it. I have added bananas peaches yogurt 25 grams of Protein 150 calories also comes in chocolate, double fudge brownie and strawberry. Hope you find something you like!

      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.
