The Only Protein Drink I Can Tolerate



Recommended Posts

I can't tolerate any kind of protien drinks. I checked the Unjury web site and also checked reviews from another blog. Unjury has an overwhelming amount of positive feedback. I am going to go in that direction and cross my fingers!

I like the unflavored. 1 scoop has 21g of protien. I mix it with crystal light strawberry. I also put it in my Jello cups. It does change the color of the Jello and crystal light. And with trail and error you can adjust The sweetness. But it's great to add a little more Protein during the day. The chocolate flavored shake is the only one a like. Mixed with skim milk its not bad. I really enjoy the chicken broth. And they have a few recipes for that as well that I haven't tried. Order the sample pack first, that helped me a lot. hope this helps.

Has anyone tried the Believe Protein Drinks? I know some have caffeine which some of us don't do but they have a creme brûlée flavor that does not... I am thinking about ordering from Bariatric Eating website. My support group leader who is post RNY was drinking a Mocha latte one and she said it was good but I haven't seen anyone on here comment on them ???

Mermaid Girl - I put about 2 oz Water and about 1/2 cup ice. Then I add 2 scoops powder, 1/2 banana, and about 4 frozen strawberries, then blend.

Another suggestion that I've not tried, but I plan to, is a recipe for a Bone Broth Soup. Look it up on Google and there's a bunch of recipes. Im planning to make that post op and add unflavored Protein. Apparently, it has a ton of Vitamins and minerals from the bones, then extra protein added...my recipe calls for beef or chicken bone (s) celery, onions, spices, and cook it on a very low simmer for hours, or crock pot it...you can strain out all the solids (a lot of the veggies will liquefy) and voila! An excellent and VERY nutritious broth. Beef knuckle is supposed to have the most nutrients. Any butcher should be able to hook it up...im going to ask the meat guy at my farmers market...

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
