Who hated protein powder but found a good on?



Recommended Posts

While in my weight loss journey I tried almost every Protein Powder out there. They were nothing but disgusting. The thickness, the after taste, and just plain nastiness doesnt sit we'll with me.

Please tell me someone out there had the same reaction but found something good?

Now Sports unflavored whey isolate powder. Absolutely no flavor & it doesn't make things thick that I add it to. I can mix it with flavored water, broth, whatever. I add sugar-free Torani, DaVinci or Walden Farms syrups for variety. Now that I'm on puree foods, I mix it in those to get to my Protein goal.

The flavored powders I used before surgery now make me ill. I did try some unflavored powder from GNC while I waited for my order from Amazon. The GNC stuff did make things thick, but at least it had no flavor.

I bought vanilla flavor and then added Decaf coffee or low calorie drinking chocolate (choc/mint) with lots of ice and it definitely improved the flavour.

I agree, I use Unjury chocolate splendor powder mixed with unsweetened almond milk and then I pour it into decaf coffee over lots of ice with a shot of sugarfree Torani hazelnut Syrup.< /p>

Body Fortress chocolate was really good and very inexpensive! It taste just like chocolate milk. It wasn't gritty or too thick. It is 8 grams Total Carbs and 26 grams of protein.I tried Premier and it was disgusting.

I liked Premier before surgery but now it makes me nauseous. Mixing it with Decaf coffee helps, but it still gives me diarrhea.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
