have you tried different kinds of Protein shakes? I know my NUT gave me a good size list of ones I could choose from (obviously low sugar, high protein)? I have never personally tried unjury yet, I know I will have to once I am post op.....sorry I couldn't be more help. Good Luck!

I'm 11 days pre-op and I can't stand these Protein shakes with unjury. I'm getting nowhere near enough Protein. Any suggestions to make "full liquids" more tolerable?

At Sams you can buy Premier Protein Shakes and they are pretty good. There are 40 grams of protein per shake and only 1 gram of sugar. I like the Atkins shakes the best but they don't have as much protein in them even though they do taste much better. Have you tried the unflavored Unjury mixed into sugar free Jello? Keep trying things till you find something that works. Just remember that you aren't going to find anything that tastes like Cookies and cream icecream... we're talking diet food here. Good luck. I've lost 15 pounds drinking one for Breakfast, one for lunch and then eating a healthy supper. Plus I have 2 Snacks during the day.

Atkins are the best so far. EAS is good. Advocare was horrendous. Just bought Unjury. Going to try tomorrow. Anyone have a good strawberry flavor they'd recommend? Hands down, the Atkins Mocha is the best (so far).

Everyone's taste is so different on shakes.< /p>

I couldn't do the premier that a lot of people swear by.


Pre-surgery I loved the syntax nectar. After surgery not so much but to be honest haven't had any since a few days out. May have to try again as I still have a few packages around.


I do like the Unjury both vanilla and chocolate but these days are not drinking shakes very often.


Good luck with your journey!

My favorite is the Muscle Milk Light. I just get the chocolate ones. Had them pre surgery liquid diet and still have no issue consuming them now.

      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.
