Any tips for unsweet protein in liquid stage?



Recommended Posts

So tired already of the sweet shakes, need some new ideas for less sweet. I have chicken bullion paks and Unjury chicken Soup and unflavored but need some tips to make them palatable.

The nurses in the hospital brought me chicken Unjury with huge globs in it that really turned me off the whole idea, SO nasty!!

Anything "legal" I can do with my PB2?

Try Syntrax medical unflavored. It's my favorite unflavored. Mix it in with whatever you're drinking. Okay, not plain Water (I've never tried it but it sounds gross) but Crystal Light, juice, tea, coffee, Soup, whatever. I've mixed with all of those and it's undetectable despite the fact that it smells a bit in the container.

I could NOT tolerate the unjury products. I ate one or two packets of the chicken flavored but ugh, that Protein had a wretched smell that would make me gag if more than a Tbs. was in anything I was eating.

Good luck! Your tastes will change throughout so don't be afraid to try new things. The small tubs of unflavored run about $15-18, so it won't break the bank if you hate it. Oh, and I put two scoops in most everything I make with it, since it's lower in Protein per scoop.

I can't help with PB2...I hate Peanut Butter. But my only suggestion would be to mix it with a chocolate Protein powder and make a shake, but if you're avoiding sweet things that won't do, will it?

How about some flavored instant, Decaf coffee ala International Coffee (Now Maxwell House). They have a lot of great flavors. My favorite is Cafe Vienna, but not sure they carry that anymore. I Drink FranchVanilla now. It's creamy. Maybe you can mix some unflavored Protein Powder with it

      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.
