Try mixing silkened tofu or cottage cheese or kefir in your blender with fresh fruits. That became my only way of getting Protein in because the mere thought of artificial sweetener sent my sleeve into a tailspin after surgery. I'm day 13 and I'm at my goal of 60 gm a day by doing this. They taste yummy too, and there's hundreds of combos of fruits and even veggies to mix with the Proteins. Look up some recipes online :-)

Don't buy a whole container of Unjury try the sample pack. I tried the chocolate and it tasted way too sweet for me. I'm trying to find a Protein Powder I like right now has well.

You can reduce the sweetness by adding more milk or Water. I do 1 scoop with 8oz Water over ice.

Same here! The Unjury chocolate is really, really sweet.

Have you tried making Protein ice cream? Check out theworldaccordingtoeggface for some recipes if you want to try it.

I really like the Syntrax Nectars. Several companies offer sample packs. (Some let you choose your flavors -- others pick for you.)

Any time I use a plain vanila Protein powder (usually Isopure -- best protein/carb ratio), I always add a splash of Torani SF salted caramel. It's really sweet too, so you have to be careful with how much you put in there.

      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.
