Liquid Diet Advantage or Unjury .. Which did you like?



Recommended Posts

Thanks all ;)

I think I might order some unjury to have on hand in the house. I'm looking for the best tasting LOL :) I'm sure it's hard, everyone is different, but Unjury seems to be a winner by lots of people.

How does everyone do on the liquid diet - did you find it hard??

I'm very worried about it .... 2 weeks prior and a month after... I get very bored fast.

Hi Georgette, I'm in the same boat as you...my surg date is 9/16, so liquid diet starts on 9/2. I'm worried about being able to stick with it, too. I guess we'll both manage, it's only 2 weeks. Not that long in the grand scheme of things.

Thanks Lucrezia :) Yes, we will manage...

But what about after - 2 weeks is nothing like you said, but I understand it to be about 3-4 weeks of it after surgery.

I, too, am hoping for a September date, few tests this week should give me the go ahead to get insurance approval.

We should become buddies ;)

There are a lot of great flavored broths out there: miso ginger, Thai style, hot and sour Soup flavored, etc. All right there in the soup aisle. Check it out and if you have a Trader Joes by you they have great options too!

✌️ yes. I have trader joes. Anything you can suggest? Have you done some research you can share?

I'm still on full liquids (8 days out of surgery) but I'd definitely recommend the flavored broths, they were a lifesaver. Just know you don't have to struggle through with just beef and chicken!

you can make your own Soups. I like chicken with all the vegetables and than use the emulsifier. for it to be thin just use more liquid. use your spices to keep your taste buds happy.

Great thanks!
I have time just curious...

Trying to lose a little weight before my October vacation and a little before surgery, which I'm sure won't be till after my vacation -- I was hoping for this month but might be better off just holding off so i can fly and not have any issues while

away.

I just wanted to add, I have really not liked the unjury flavors I've tried. I've done the strawberry Sorbet and vanilla, and they both have this OVERPOWERING smell and a weird aftertaste. Syntrax nectar is so much tastier and it doesn't stink. I don't know about Unjury's unflavored, but Syntrax Nectar unflavored is great.

How does the unflavored nectar mix? Does it change the thickness of drinks/broth.

Love Unjury vanilla and choclate. I add less than a hand ful of frozen fruit some times and the taste is wonderful. Kind of like soft serve or something a bit musher than that. Adding fruit like that gives me time to drink coffee and then drink Unjury. Or add a bit of freeze dried Decaf instant coffee. Doesn't stay as cold because no frozen fruit. But can drink regular coffee and Unjury made with freeze dried crystals and drink both as Breakfast. Anyway, Unjury is best.

        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.

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
