I know how important Protein is for healing and weight loss. Yesterday, I went online and ordered some samples of Unjury, Chike and PB2. I thought I should try them pre-op to see if I like them and then order some and get stocked up!!

Chike had 5 samples for $6.95 i think and that included shipping. Not bad! Unjury's samples were $1.75 each and i think shipping was about $3.00.

Just a little info for those that wish to try and not buy large quanities. I heard Unjury's chicken Soup protein mix is REALLY good. I can't wait to get it!

I will post again and let you know how they are.

HI Kelly

I just got the Unjury chicken soup yesterday and had to try it , it was pretty good, but you can only add luke warm Water to it., I was a little bummed about that, but it will probably be better immediatley after sugery at that temp anyway.. I go for my surgery on April 11th how about you?

Hi Kelli,

How cool that we have the same name!

I read that the Soup has to be no hotter than 130 degrees or it will clump! That will probably suck pre-op, but you are right about being just right post op.

I have not gotten my surgery date yet. It has been a slow process!! Been at this since last Sept 10. I have lost 50lbs tho! Testing, classes, more test, dr. visits. uggg. I know it will all be worth it tho. I am going thr Kaiser and they make you do ALOT of stuff!

I am having an upper endoscopy done and that is my last step! YAY Then, I can meet with the coordinator and she will set my date. My endoscopy is not until the middle of april.

Good luck to you!

Kelly :D

I got th Unury samples , and the Bariatric Advantage samples as well as some nectar samples. Then I also found that the site Vitalady dot com will send you a sample of all these different kinds for a nominal amount (fibro brain tonight so I am not sure how much.) So I now have about 12 kinds to sample!

I actually posted in the nutrition section wish I could find some people around my area to get together with to do a taste test. Wouldn't that be fun?

I will probably start my You Tube series with the taste tests instead, though of course everyone likes different things so my experience might not be yours. I expect the most pertinent issue will be how s trongly the Protein taste comes through.

Hey, great minds think alike! I did the same thing. My surgery is April 11 and a couple days ago I ordered Unjury chicken soup and unflavored because I heard they were both good. I'm definitely going to try it out before surgery. I also heard in the post op thread that GNCs Isopure smoothies in orange peach are good.

      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
