What is the best tasting liquid Isopure and cheapest to buy. Thanks

As with all Protein drinks....."cheap" isn't part of the choices. However, I use the Isopure Zero carb drinks in the glass bottles (get them at GNC) which come in many flavors (some are doable, some are horrible) and are 40 grams of Protein in 20 ounces. I use them when I go to the gym. That way I'm usually so thirsty, I don't mind the taste. Other times I just cut them 50% with Water. Pretty much the most bang for your buck when it comes to Protein Drinks. ;)

I used "Grape Mist" and was able to tolerate the taste. A lady in our Kaiser Options classes brought a bottle of it to class so we could taste it and that is why I bought a case of it, I do not remember how much I payed for it but I do remember shopping online for the best price. I have not tried the other flavors but heard you really need to try one before you buy a whole bunch of the same flavor.

Appreciate your help. I will be purchasing at GNC. Just didn't want to waste money on awful flavors. I know everyone has different taste. A

Can I use during clear liquid phase

I'm getting ready to buy a variety pack of the big bottles from GNC. You get two bottles of each flavor, 12 bottles in all. It's on sale for $49.99 or $44.99 if you have their Gold card. This comes out to $3.75 per bottle. I mainly want these for my first post-op week as a way to get Protein in my clear liquid phase. If I don't drink them all, DH will be able to use them when he has his surgery. I got a tip from a You Tube video that if you can't stand the taste of them, add Water and a packet of Crystal Light of the same flavor.

I bought 4 bottles of different flavors & couldn't stand any of them. I ended up pouring them down the sink. Still makes me cringe thinking about it. :blush:

I tried a few flavors and couldn't get them down. The all had a strange after taste.

My dietician recommended staying with citrus flavors. I have the icy orange flavor and like it. They were close to $5 a bottle at Vitamin Shoppe

Ok, I ended up ordering the Isopure variety pack from Luckyvitamin.com ($46.30). They have free shipping on orders over $49 so I added a couple packets of Biochem whey Protein powder ($1.99 ea). Considering GNC wants to charge almost $18 to ship and it appears you can only get the variety pack online, I think this was a good deal!

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
