How The Hell Do You Drink Isopure?



Recommended Posts

instead of milk, has anyone else tried mixing it with Almond Milk or Soy Milk? I like the Almond Milk, not too heavy feeling in the shakes.< /p>

I love almond milk. I use nectar chocolate powder (and mix it with banana cream powder a lot), and mix it with 1/2 Water and 1/2 almond milk and a little ice. My favorite shake by far.

I like mixing with almond milk or Hood Carb countdown to mix with, has less carbs than milk.

I mix the vanilla unjury powder in the Silk Light Soy Milk.....yum yum. Like a glass of chocolate milk.

I could barely tolerate it. I added Crystal light to it. I bought the Alpine punch and added Crystal Light fruit punch too it.

I also used it as the Water in Jello and made my own Protein Jello.< /p>

The info here is so helpful. I'm 11 weeks out and struggling daily with Protein. Today I bout the Isopure RTD mango orange flavor and could not get thru 1/4 of it. Tomorrow I'll try adding crystal light that's good to know. I also bought a sample pack of the nectar powders to try so I'm hopeful those will be more tasty!

Personally I like my Isopure so when yours arrives chill it and try it with an open mind. the colder the better!

I like the isopure - but not a fan of the isopure smoothie as they are gritty and have nasty after taste.

Like said, colder the isopure the better and easier to choke down.

I was going to buy one of each flavor of the Isopure but based on these reviews and the high cost, I think I will spend my money elsewhere. Thanks for all the great feedback.

Try one everyone's taste buds are different I wouldn't recommend buying a ton of anything without trying it first. I just bought the unjury chicken mix. It is delicious taste just like a bowl of chicken Soup and has 21 grams Protein per scoop.

My sister LOVES the Isopure zero carb drinks. Don't let me gagging over them discourage you. Try one or two. It may be your savior in those early post-op days.

I suggest you try at least one because everyone has different tastes. Just remember to report back with your findings!

:wub: :ph34r: I have your answer... http://www.cytosport...-ready-to-drink << it's a link to Cytosport's RTD whey Isolate drinks. Straight up... yum!

I was on a clear liquid diet for a LONG time and it sucked. I hate isopuke (my apologies to anyone who likes it but YEEEEAKKK) and I hate Protein bullets. But this drink in green (tropical) or orange (tangerine) ROCKS. I bought them at Vitamin Shop. They have a refrigerated section where you can buy these individually and try them. Try anything, but keep your receipt. You have 7 days and even if it's open and you hated it, bring it back for a refund. (hello, Protein bullets... how do you think I know their return policy?) And yes, your tastebuds DO change, so remember Vitamin Shop has a great refund policy (that stuff is expensive, any of that stuff that is!).

Good luck!

I drink the muscle milk light. The only other thing I found that I can stomach is a light chocolate milk my local supermarket sells with 20 grams of Protein. The problem is they are out of it half the time I go shopping. I am lactose intolerant too. Even though the muscle milk is dairy free, it goes right through me sometimes. I think it may be that it is so sweet.

That stuff actually looks really good on paper. How does it taste?

I would cut it with crystal light. It made it more bearable. I won't say good, but better than alone. Half of each worked for me.

      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
