Unfortunately, I had to go with the internet since I couldn't find any unflavored Protein in my local stores.

If you choose to go with the internet, I can recommend: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GIUQOG/ref=oss_T15_product]Amazon.com: Optimum Nutrition 100% Any whey Instantized whey Protein, 2.7-Pound Tub: Health & Personal Care[/ame]

Best of luck. If you find something else that you like, please let us know.

I bought unflavored Protein powder at GNC for my clear stage.It's their own brand. It was fine mixed in crystal lite, SF, Hawaiian punch, etc. I didn't use it all up, so I mixed in in with my chocolate fudge pudding flavor from BSN lean Desserts and got rid of the rest of it.

Amerigirl,

Itried these,the orange mango tasted ok, they do have buttermilk and milk solids in it so not sure if it would be considered clear as I could not see thru it when mixed.

Both of the GNC's here offer a couple of different options of unflavored Protein. I got a couple of samples from the one GNC on base.

I agree with Tracy about the "unflavored". They didn't have any flavor, but there is definitely an undescribable taste in them.

Good thing about GNC is that they will take back products even partially used/opened containers.

Tiffykins,

Were they the store brands at GNC? Is the taste awful or would it be tolerable in Crystal Light? Are they ok for the clear liquid stage? I have a credit for GNC so that would work really well. Plus there protien is on sale right now.

I hated every single GNC brand of Protein. I had 1 sample of the unflavored that I tried to mix in the orange flavored crystal light, and I couldn't tolerate it. I also tried mixing it in greek yogurt, couldn't eat it.

I'm super picky though, and can't tolerate the way most Proteins smell. I'm not saying it won't work for you. I know some people that love that stuff.

Yes, you can use the Isopure ready to drink on the clear stage. I woudldn't buy too many though, because most people don't like it. I tolerated it just fine though.

My GNC unflavored came in a tub. Maybe they have smaller amounts that you can try. You can mix it in anything that will disguise the taste, but I would not mix it in Water. Walmart has their own brand of sf stuff that is like crystal lite and there are all those packets of different stuff near where that is on the shelf that you mix with Water and you can mix the Protein powder in that stuff too.

This morning I'm trying the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored in a cup of Earl Grey tea. It was a hassle to make. Put the powder in some Water and stir, then make tea and watch it cool to 130 degrees. Add a bit of fat free half and half to cool. The stirred the Protein into the tea. Reheat a touch. Smelled yuck. Added a cap full of Toriani sugar free vanilla so that I smell that when drinking.

This is the first unflavored that I've tried. I don't think I'd like it in Water or even crystal light (which I find too sweet now). Maybe in a cup of Soup or in Jello. I'm not a big coffee drinker but I might try it in a cup of Decaf over the weekend.

I'm still pre-op and experimenting. If I don't like something now, I'm pretty sure not to like it later.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
