Well, I have had my sample package of various multi and Calcium and powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury for some time. I have slowly tried them. So far I like the calcium chews in raspberry caramel and lemon. The chocolate not so much. It tastes like a bad tootsie roll. I like the chewable calcium. In class we sampled cinnamon and I loved it. It tastes like red hots if you like them. I also liked the berry flavored. I did not like the orange. No way. I have not tried the crystals nor the losengers. Lastly, today, I have tried the Unjury vanilla. I am so amazed at how much it tastes like a shake. I mean a real vanilla shake. Others in my class have complained of how thick the Protein Meal Replacements are and how awful they taste. Well for me I have at least found one I really like. I think I would also like the chocolate if the flavors are true to their names. I finally used my ninja blender my kids got me last Christmas. After making the shake, I realize I can do this quite easily with very little effort. At first in the back of my mind I was thinking about the pain I would be in the day after returning home from surgery and could I really get myself up and prepare the different fluids that I will be needing for myself. The answer is yes. I now can stop focusing so much on the pain. I have said all my life how low my pain tolerance is but this time Im all in no matter what. Plus I just love my ninja! Just a cheery note this morning to share. 20 days to my surgery. yeah!

Good to hear you are excited about your surgery. 20 days will pass before you know it. I just wanted to add that after surgery your taste buds may change. It is also common to have nausea afterwards. So, those Protein Drinks will not be appealing at first. A lot of people say to get samples instead of a big jug. Not trying to scare you but I just want to give you a heads up. I tried the Unjury chicken Soup post op and I totally enjoyed it.

I can't find samples of unjury so I haven't tried it yet but did try muscle milk light (chocolate) which is good and the Syntrax nectar I like the latte Cappuccino flavor and caribean cooler and I got a samme of oeach to try today . the Vitamine Shop carries a few samples. The nectar a are VERY thin and drank over ice are actually refreshing. I got a flavorless to try in soup/applesauce and see how it works:) I'll update you.

Ps. I can't figure out how to use the tracker either, I also can't see people's info on the app like surgery date etc?? So I'm pretty NEW I guess. Surgery for me in 21 days

      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.
