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.

      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.
