Good Protein Powder To Add In Coffee?



Recommended Posts

Anyone found one yet? Now that I can have my daily Decaf in the AM, I was hoping to find a decent powder to toss in and help get the Protein in. Anyone have a favorite they can share?

The Unjury unflavored Protein Powder works in most things. I have added it to broth with decent results. With any Protein powder, you are going to have to wait for your coffee to cool a bit before adding the powder because it breaks down over a certain temp. I am a bit of a fanatic over my coffee, so I don't think I would enjoy it with any protein powder in it because it will make it thicker and cloudy. I have traded in my morning coffee for a morning Protein Shake for the time being.

Kava low acid instant coffee with a scoop of vanilla Unjury makes a decent latte ish drink it's not Decaf so watch hydration issues early out . Also can use half scoop van and half chocolate for cafemochalatte. It's not Starbucks but pretty good!

Thanks Tracy. This is the first time I've had a coffee, it won't be a regular occurrence, but I felt like this might help me get ummm regular. :-)~

Thanks to PEvette, for the bariatricpantry.com. They have all kinds of Protein coffee drinks. I love coffee and ordered a sampler , Lattes, Cappachinos, Mocha, etc. Pardon the spelling mistakes. They have alot of different sample packs and deliver very quickly. I haven't tried them yet, but plan to. Most are low sugar, low carb. Variety is the spice of life. :)

If you want coffee/mocha/cappucino/java, then look no further than Click Protein espresso powder! It is flippin' amazing and super versatile AND is the equivalent of 2 shots of espresso for every serving! It has 12g protein per serving which isn't much but then I never use it as my sole protein powder in a shake. Not really being a coffee person I use it more as an ingredient rather than the star; I use a serving of chocolate protein powder, a half serving of Click, a tiny splash of a Torani Syrup, topped with SF whipped cream, with some cinnamon or bitter cocoa powder tapped across the top. Arranged prettily in a Starbucks reusable to-go cup, it's just as good if not better than the real thing!

      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.

      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.
