Does anyone have favorite tips about how to use the unlflavored Proteins that really masks them? I tried crystal light and I was still too aware of it. I'm a whiner I know! I am just trying to be vigilant about getting the Protein in.

Thanks ya'll!

How much liquid are you adding to it? And also, what kind of crystal light? I add 8 oz. Water, 1/2 packet of crystal light to a scoop of Unjury unflavored, and that works for me. You could always dilute it and add a scoop to double the amount of water, and double the crystal light. Also, I found that mine doesn't taste great with the plain lemonade crystal light because it's almost TOO light, but it tastes good with the pink lemonade crystal light which has more flavor. Hope that helps a little!

I mix 1/2 scoop into yogurt or swiss miss diet cocoa.

Just be careful when adding to hot liquids - if the temp is over 140 degrees, it will clump up on you. I have made the Water just warm, mixed thoroughly and then heated it up a little more - no issues with clumping then.

(I use Any whey "Flavorless" Protein that I get from Amazon.)

Thanks, I'll try again. I'm having this weird day where food and drink all sound awful, so I was trying to make myself at least get Fluid and Protein in. I'll give it a go!

What about food flavourings?

I have coconut, vanilla and chocolate essence in the fridge which don't contain sugar... couldn't you mask them by making them taste of something you like? There must be loads of flavourings available.

(Forgive me if I'm way wrong on this one, just guessing!!)

Those definitely help - just like me with my diet cocoa mix.

I put unflavored Protein Powder in anything I could find that was sugar free. There is a Hawaiian punch that is sf, and sf gatoraide and power aide, besides the Walmart brand of crystal lite. I used the cranberry raspberry flavor.

Thanks to all for the postings. Will have surgery (lap band) in May 2010. I am trying to get samples and recipes for my diet post surgery. I will like to find a liquid Multi-Vitamin with minerals.

      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.
