I just received my samples of Unjury Protein. I bought one of each sample they had. Tonight I tried the vanilla... it says to mix it with milk, soy milk, coffee, or any of your favorite beverage. Well since I'm on my pre op diet I decided to mix it with Water - it wasn't great at all. As a matter of fact, it was pretty bad. I've been told that Unjury is pretty good. Does anyone know if I should have mixed it with the milk??

Any advise on protein is helpful. I get banded in just a couple of days and I'm trying to see what I like best.

Bleh. I wouldn't mix any of the powders w/just Water. I got the Unjury samples and have mixed them with 60-cal no sugar pudding (when you mix it it becomes runny like pudding Soup, but still tasty) and in a smoothie... couldn't tell at all. For the liquid stage, I'd suggest the Isopure drinks w/40 g Protein in a bottle... the only one I've tried so far is the orange, and it was pretty good... a bit of an aftertaste, but ok. I've also tried the Micellar milk w/low-carb chai tea and that was good... a chai-tea latte w/lots of protein. The bariatriceating.com site has a variety pack w/recipes, you could check that out. It's a very personal thing, the whole protein powder/drink thing... good luck figuring out what works for you!

For the most part I use unjury. I mix 1 scoop with 1 cup of skim milk...and throw it in the blender to avoid clumps...

Very rarely do I drink it with just powder and milk...

I normally add fruit to the vanilla... or a dash of cinnamon (kinda tastes like a cinnamon bun), or my fav. is to mix 1 scoop of vanilla with 1 cup of flat diet orange soda... tastes like a creamcicle.. yum.

With the chocolate I add a half banana and sometimes a little Peanut Butter.

Also from time to time I use the unflavored in my crystal light.

if you go to www.unjury.com they have a recipe page...

      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.
