Protein popsicle recipes?



Recommended Posts

I now have in my possession a couple of popsicle molds. I am still on clears for another 5 days but I'll be on liquids 10 more days after that and then purees. I decided that for the summer and popsicles might be a great way to get more Protein in. Anyone have any great recipes suggestions?

I just got a couple of cases of Isopure in. The blue one and the punch. They are currently in the refrigerator to try to get really cold, I've heard a lot of people don't like the taste so I'm hoping if its cold the taste won't be as much of a problem. Does anyone use Isopure doctored up with a little bit more sweetener or crystal light or something for popsicles?

I want to try making some popsicles and add crystal light flavor of choice + a scoop of unflavored Unjury. You get 21 grams from one scoop. I love putting a Lemonade Crystal light with a scoop of Unjury strawberry Sorbet for a Strawberry lemonade drink. Very good and refreshing! They would probably make good popsicles too.

I have a bunch if syntax nectar unflavored Protein but a scoop is just 10g protein. When I run out I'll try Unjury. And your strawberry lemonade sounds great! I have the strawberry optimum Protein Powder, I bet I can add the lemonade to that and get the same effect. Great for summer.

I could not stand the taste of the Isopure. Every time I tried to drink it I would gag. I ended up throwing the 4 bottles I got away. I know I had a lot of Popsicles in that two week period. My. Dr told me not to stress over getting the protien in. I'm 8 weeks post surgery and have lost 40 pounds. As long as I get my liquid, protein and Vitamins in everything else comes with time.

I went to GNC store and asked about Isopure ,the sales clerk told me they were nasty tasting ,he had tried them .so I didn't buy them. I read a lot of people don't like isopure

The Isopure is much better mixed with Water throughout the day (if you don't have Water issues, that is), or as a popsicle.

Regarding recipes though, I don't have anything exact yet, but I've been planning something with coconut Protein powder, coconut water and maybe some sugar free chocolate Syrup. Also, ginger and lime (probably no Protein added though; just for refreshment and hydration).

I was told sugar free or fruit juice with no suagr added popcicles are fine in these early stages. Main goal is to stay hydrated. Otter Pops make all juce popcicles that are great. Can be found at costco.< /p>

I just had my first bottle of the blue Isopure, it's actually quite good! Tastes a lot like the blue Powerade. I'll try the red tomorrow... Will see how that goes.

My taste buds have always been weird through, things aren't as sweet to me and bitter is really bitter (I can't drink wine)

      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.
