How The Hell Do You Drink Isopure?



Recommended Posts

I bought it from the Vitamin store' date=' and I mustered up the courage to try the grape flavored one.... On the rocks. Not bad! It's NOT great. But better than I expected and better than other drinks I have tasted! I could definitely choke this down on a regular basis. It's a winner!!!!

I could tolerate the grape ice flavor on ice diluted with Water....a couple of drops of a flavor enhancer like MIO drops might help. At least I met my Protein goals and it was only for 3 days!

Now I am scared. I just bought 4 bottles of Isopure..... I did not like the vanilla premier Protein so I will try chocolate next. I did like Syntrax nectar though! strawberry kiwi, fuzzy navel, Cappuccino, and double stuffed Cookies were nice flavors! How does everyone feel about unflavored Protein mixes?

No thanks....I gave them up after day 3. I make a variety of Protein shakes with chocolate or vanilla Protein powders and Torani sugar free syrups, coffee etc...Isopure is a 3 day episode, I didn't like it, but it was tolerable for the few days...that's why I said Water it down and add ice, at least you'll get your protein in.

Good luck!

PLEASE SOMEONE ANSWER MY QUESTION....what happens to you if you dont drink the Protein shakes...or what happens to you if you just have 1/2 the required amount of protein.............I mean will I die...or get 20 yrs older ...or.......look like hell.......WHAT HAPPENS......????????

Without Protein it takes longer to heal, your skin becomes gray and waxy, your hair will likely fall out more than if you got your protein, and you'll be short on energy.

Here's the other thing about Protein, your body loses fat and muscle during the weight loss process, the protein helps maintain and support your muscles so that not as much is lost. Going low carb forces your body to burn the glucose in your own body fat rather than using the glucose (sugars) from high carb foods, your body uses the most readily available source of energy first.

hahah... Isopure hater here too. Tried 5 flavors and did not like any of them. I use the Premiere Protein pre-mixed chocolate shake (Vanilla is gross) 11 oz has 30 grams of Protein and tastes better to me then any Isopure' date=' powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, Syntax nectar, Ease I have tried and Premiere Proteins 30g in 11 oz is more per ounce of protein then the Isopure. You can get them at costco and Sam's Club[/quote']

I really like these

I agree, Isopure isn't very good. I have 3 bottles left, maybe will choke them down. If you want to mix some kind of milk, try a vanilla soymilk light to mix with flavored Protein powders. I like Unjury's chicken Soup too as well as Celebrate bariatric chocolate and creamsickle flavors. I put them in my "bullet" blender with a little ice and Water. Also making sugar free Jello and puddings with the plain Protein Powder, not too bad.

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
