Blender/bulley should help. I Have yet to try the unflavored.

Neither, really. At least not in what I've put it in.

You can add the unflavored to oatmeal, grits, mashed potatoes when you are on the soft foods phase. I can eat real food but I still use Unjury daily to get my Protein in. It does make whatever you add it to thinner, so you have to adjust your liquids at the beginning to make things the correct consistency. I have to laugh when I read that people say it is sweet, the Unjury are much less sweet than most Proteins.< /p>

Can the unflavored be used in the 'clear liquids' stage of pre and post op? I was looking into the Isopure, but it is so pricey! I also have ordered several 'sample' packs of different powders. I think the toughest thing for me will be not getting 'bored' about the protien shakes, so I am looking up as many varieties and 'recipes' as I can!

Under forums>food&nutrition>protien drinks/powders>places to get liquid protien samples. Here is a direct link:

http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/1267-places-to-get-liquid-protein-samples/

Some of the links were old, so I googled some, but I found Vitalady to have a TON! I think I ordered at least 60 samples! I plan to make a chart and rate all of them. If I have to drink Protein, I want to be sure I am drinking the best tasting Protein I can drink!

I only add about 1/2 scoop of the unflavored to my flavored waters and such (32 oz bottle). Too much does change the flavor some. ;)

So I tried the unjury chocolate Splendora I think its called (they have two a chocolate and this one) yesterday with 8oz of 1% fat free milk and used the imulssion(sp?) Mixer/blender to mix it up and I have to say I was very surprised at how good it really was, it tastes just like a low fat chocolate milk and didnt have a bad smell or a weird taste or after taste either! Very happy with the chocolate!

Ok, so I forgot to pack milk the other day. I went to Starbucks and ordered a short FF steamed milk with sugar free vanilla flavoring. I mixed it with Unjury chocolate splendor. It was so good, I almost felt guilty. The pre op diet shouldn't be this easy! Also, I mixed the strawberry sorbet with Fage fat free plain yogurt. It was really really good as well. I do t usually like chocolate or strawberry Protein Shakes, so I was surprised by these. Glad I bought the sample pack. Also, I tried the steamed milk with Syntrax Nectar choc truffle and that was really good too. Hope I still like these after.

Totally agree! I use 1/2 scoop unflavored (10.5 gs. Protein) with about 3 cups (24 oz. Ice Water and ice cubes) with crystal lite. Sometimes it gets lumpy but I keep ice and a shaker ball in my cup snd shake before each sip. 2 of these between meals and I get had my Water and Protein in just fine (and I'm still on full liquids until tomorrow-yaaaaa!) each day. Pre-op, works too, but I preferred my shakes Pre-op made with a lot if ice, skim milk or FF fro yo and some fruit. Post-op shakes are pretty boring-no fruit or milk (until full liquids!) or Fro yo and they can't be too thick, so less ice---boring!

I tried the starter kit also. Now I have ordered a few of their products. Everyone's taste is different, just try it and see.

      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.
