Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

First, I gotta say, I LOVE the taste of the powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury products...

However, I notice that I'm having "lactose intolerance symptoms" (won't be more specific than that) about 15 minutes after drinking them... I never have an issue with eating any dairy product, this seems to be the only lactose product causing symptoms...

Anyone else have a similar experience? Are they temporary that go away after your body gets used to it???

Please don't take this as a dig to Unjury, I love them and will continue to use them even though I have the symptoms... Just looking to see if anyone else had a similar issue...

It might be something else bothering you . It is kind of strange you have never had issues with dairy before now and then all the sudden with Unjury. Have you tried any other products? There are so many options and lots of dairy free as well. Best of Luck!

Try mixing the Unjury with Almond milk and see if that makes a difference.

You could also try doing a half dose, like half of a shake in the morning, and the other half mid-afternoon or so. I have the digestive problems you mention with most whey Protein isolate drinks (except Isopure) no matter what I mix it in, but in the past, a suggestion to me was to half my intake, did not work for me, but it may for you.

I am known to be lactose intolerant and I can use Unjury with no symptoms in Almond Milk. Higher in Calcium, low in calories and carbs. Tastes great!

I love Unjury. I notice that I have a little bit of an "issue" when I drink them. I have the opposite effect when I drink eas advantage.

Good luck with the problem.

I'm not lactose intolerant but I had an issue with the eas advantEDGE carb control drinks last week. I slowed down in drinking them and I'm okay now. I think it's just your body adjusting to such a high concentrated amount of protein... At least that's what I read online. Try the other suggestions, hopefully something works!!

My inside come to screaching halt on all Protein Shakes. I wasn't told I could eat oranges on my pre-op, but when I got sick right after Christmas I started eating 2 cuties a day and that helped A LOT. Things started moving so to speak. :P

Are you ok with Protein Shakes now? OMG, your surgery is tomorrow?!?! CONGRATULATIONS!! Do you think you'll be okay with Protein Shakes after surgery? If not, what will you do to supplement?

If I can keep eating fruit I will be ok. If not I will have to take something to make things "run" smooth. I am going to ask them tomorrow before I leave the hospital to see what they suggest. I know the pain meds will slow things down alot too. I had the same problem a couple weeks after my gall bladder surgery.

I think it may just be the body getting used to that much Protein after not having it for so long. Not sure

Thanks too BTW. I am very excited and nervous about tomorrow :D:o:blink:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
