no to my liquid protein



Recommended Posts

My nut said that my Isopure Protein is not counted towards 48-64oz of Fluid that is required. Well that SUCKS!!! LOL So my question to you guys is when you add protein to something warm does it change, break it down, alter the protein?

Thanks in advance!

The answer is yes. I use powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein and their directions are not to heat above 140 degrees. Two things happen: The Protein clumps up and it is not very tasty and the protein breaks down.

I never warmed up to Isopure drinks. I never liked how they tasted. Also according to my guideline I can only have 60-70 grams of protein and they always drove me too high in protein.

Well, there is liquid in it. It is mostly Water. Therefore, the NUT is an idiot. But this is only my opinion. While I do not love Isopure it is a liquid and it is Protein. For some it is a lifesaver to get the protein and the liquid in one. Seems to me the NUT has some odd agenda, like a lot of NUT's do.

My Isopure and Syntrax drinks are on my recommended list and count towards my liquid for the day. I put unjury chocolate Splender in my warm cocoa mix, but only to 130 degrees. Then I add some lite whipped cream.

Same for the chicken and Unflavored varieties. Whatever I add them to, I don't go over 130 degrees. Also, I make my Protein into a paste with Water first, then add the rest of my liquid (kind of like the process for pan gravy). AND I strain it before I pour it into my drinking container. I put strawberry Unjury in Crystal Lite Lemonade.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
