Isopure leaves a film in my mouth



Recommended Posts

I bought some 8 oz Isopure, alpine punch, with 15 grams of Protein. I can drink them ok.. I don't really like them but I can get them down... but after every drink or two there is this odd filmy stuff in my mouth. It is nasty. I wouldn't mind drinking them other than this nasty film. Anyone else have this problem with Isopure?

I drink one a day b/c I can't drink the creamy type shakes. Yes it leave a little film but I use ice. Equal ice to drink and let it melt to dilute it down. I drink and crunch ice until it is all gone then pour the rest of the drink with ice. Helps me to get my Protein and liquid down with less firm taste.

Early on it is good to cut it with gatorade or g2 for the extra carbs...which are usually too low the first couple of weeks yet needed for energy and for the body to correctly function.

agreed. i bought a bunch from Amazon and it's barely drinkable. it's a million times better than the Bariatric Advantage Liquid Protein elixir they have me on for the first couple of days. that stuff is incredibly nasty. shakes start tomorrow, and thats a lot better.

      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.
