Jessiegurl2686 104 Posted May 16, 2013 So I've been slacking on my Protein since I had surgery.... So I cracked open my first bottle of Isopure this morning .... I almost lost it!!!! Horrible the smell just makes me sick! 1 week post op are we allowed regular Protein Shakes or does it have to be clear???! I seriously wanna go throw up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelsan 117 Posted May 16, 2013 that stuff is horrible (and i'm not picky)! I bought a whole case from GNC just after my vsg, tried two, and had my husband return the rest. I got my Protein from Unjury checken Soup and unjury unflavored powder put in beef broth. good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jessiegurl2686 104 Posted May 16, 2013 I really liked the nectur products so i ordered the unflavored protein.... Should be here tomorrow!!! Along with my double stuffed Cookie protein! Yummy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnlatte 1,232 Posted May 16, 2013 Not a fan of the isopures, but if you mix it with some Powerade zeros they aren't all that bad, plus you get your fluids in too. Beats pouring them down the drain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HatheryOnHerWay 603 Posted May 16, 2013 There's a good reason many people call it "Isopuke"...haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westindy 13 Posted May 16, 2013 Wow Isopure has not been that bad for me. I can not stand anything milky right now so besides the Unjury chicken broth or the unflavored everything else is a waste for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yummy Hi Jessiegurl, Can you please let me know how you like the unflavored nectar? I need to find one ASAP! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleevestriss 10 Posted May 16, 2013 I mixed my isopuke with a box of SF strawberry Jello. I cup boiling Water and 1 cup alpine punch isopuke for the "cold" water. It tames the taste. You can still taste it a little but its 100x better than drinking it out of the bottle. I spent so much money on it I didnt want to waste it. But I promise you I won't be buying anymore of that nasty stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newat52 1,613 Posted May 16, 2013 I only could do the grape. I would mix it poweraid zero or a bit of Water. I reasoned they may not taste the best but they sure helped me get my Protein in the early weeks post op. I just kept telling myself "suck up buttercup and drink that s**t! I did heal fast so I'm glad I did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jessiegurl2686 104 Posted May 16, 2013 No I haven't .... Where do you get that from?? Starting tomorrow I can have full liquids so in wanna get away from broth ughhh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dltrautman1 27 Posted May 16, 2013 I love Isopur - but you have to be careful about the flavors. Grape and peach work for me but the mountain pine does not. I find it easier than the shakes to get down. I do 1/2 bottle of isopur in the morning and premier Protein shake in the afternoon. This gives me 50g of Protein from my drinks. Isopur is much easier for me to get down than the shakes. It can take me 30 minutes to get a shake down and I had surgery in December. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
