Isopure zero carb protein drinks...



Recommended Posts

Am I the only one that thinks the Isopure drinks in the bottles are extremely sweet tasting?

Actually know, I drink one Cocotein which has Isopure in it and it is really sweet. But I drink it anyway because it contains 20 gms of Protein in 16 ozs. So you aren't the only one that thinks it is sweet. I use Unjury for my other protein supplement.

I'm still in the pre op stage. I know I will have to drink these the day before surgery. Thought I should try some out first. So far I'm liking the Syntrax Nectar flavors for Protein powders.< /p>

I had lots of problems finding a Protein Shake I could tolerate they were all sickening sweet but for me the powdered Isopure was not too sweet and that's the one I have stuck with! I even tried the syntrex nectar and that was still too sweet!

That's what I'm afraid of...taste changing! Is this a big problem?

I've always related to something I heard Richard Simmons say once...I love food and it loves me! Time for that to all change soon! :)

they told me in pre op group that your taste buds change well mine did and it changed not only taste of foods and drinks, it changed the way things smell as well. still can't bring myself to drink ocean spray grape juice powder mixes too sweet. can drink the white grape and peach ones but have to add extra Water and can only drink maybe 1 a week and I am 5 months post op. I had bought a cabinet full of the boxes of ocean spray drink mixes and crystal light, and my children drink more than I do. Water is my favorite but it has got to be cold or full of ice can't stand warm water.

I found some at the Vitamin Shop. Also found them online but only able to buy them a case at a time. I didn't want a whole case and not like the taste.

Unjury Protein Powder is at Unjury.com. I found cocotein on GNC.com or even at a GNC store. Haven't tried Syntrex which I think I got at vitalady.com (some can correct me on that). Unjury and Syntrex you can buy sample pkgs, 1 serving, to see if you like it.

      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.
