Hi everyone! I just decided to try Isopure powder and I got the Dutch chocolate. I like the flavor but was wondering if anyone could recommend any other good flavors? Also I paid $50 for 3 lbs and using 2 scoops in a shake won't last me a month! Any good sites you can recommend with better prices? Thanks!!

The best price I've found was on Amazon. They have a 7.5lb bucket for $104.

Also you don't really want to drink 50g of Protein at one time. Try using 1 scoop at a time. That would deliver 25g which is almost the maximum the human body can use in one sitting.

Thank you! Do you recommend one scoop in the morning and one scoop later in the day? I'm new to Protein Shakes obviously!

That would be fine. Basicly anything over 27g in one sitting is pretty much wasted. But if they are spread out a couple hours or more that's fine.

Thank you! I didn't know that. I've been trying to see a nutritionist but my insurance is giving me a hard time. I need to learn more about all of this. I appreciate your input. :)

      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.
