Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

I ordered the sample pack from Unjury. I mixed the vanilla and the chocolate with skim milk and PB2. Could tolerate both! But looking into purchasing big tubs, Isopure seems to have some great reviews too. Both are pricey, but that is not that big of an issue. Which is better tasting? And better for you?

Do you have a Vitamin Shoppe or GNC near you? They will accept returns even if the item is opened, in case you do not like it. I do not know what the policy is at GNC but Vitamin Shoppe will give store credit. I was not impressed with Unjury for the cost. I have never tried any Isopure flavors but the unflavored is VILE and I ordered it online so I am out that money. I think any time I try something new it will be from Vitamin Shoppe from now on just in case I want to return it.

I would go with Unjury hands down, I love their unflavored because it really is unflavored and I have added to Soups and sugar free puddings, also I had a flavor I didn't like and no questions asked on their return policy - I sent it back and they gave me my money back...great customer service!!!

Isopure makes me a little nauseous so I prefer to go with a Protein Powder. Unjury is good, but so is Syntrax and other brands. Protein powders are just one of those post op necessities you have to spend money on at least for 6 weeks while you are healing. I am strange and love daily Protein Shakes, even at 13 months.

I also love Protein Shakes and work them into my diet accordingly. I have a premier after my morning workout BCAA/creatine drink, then a bottles Isopure (live the peach mango and grape flavora) diluted 1:1 with Water for a 40 ounce plus fluids. Then another before bed so my body has something to work off of while I sleep. I like the funky tasting ones though, they don't bother me so I go for the fortress brand at Walmart. Inexpensive comparably and has great reviews on quality and taste.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
