Non-gritty Protein Drinks?



Recommended Posts

I am trying to find some smooth, non-gritty Protein drinks. I have tried many powders and they are horrible. I used to drink Muscle Milk but it is now too sweet and thick.

I have my surgery is in less than two weeks, so I need to find something quick.

I just bought some Gatorade Protein Drinks but they are high in sugars.

Suggestions?

Thanks!

I'm also pre-op and using premium Protein. It's pretty smooth.

I don't mind Unjury chocolate splendor but I hate their other flavors. It's Protein but not Meal Replacement. With the unjury I use a little instant coffee (decaf) and that takes away the too sweet taste. I'm pre op right now. Everyone says our tastes change so good luck to you :)

I can't handle the sweet Protein drinks so I really like Unjury's chicken Soup. I also like BariWise hot cocoa because it is never gritty and not overly sweet. Maybe it is just mixing it with hot Water instead that helps - who knows.

I also like that both of those are really low in calories too - only 100 for the chicken Soup & 80 for the hot cocoa. Because they are mixed with Water, no extra calories from adding milk. They are both 15 grams of Protein, which isn't as high as some, but since I actually like them I am more likely to drink them every day.

I am not at this stage yet, but plan to purchase unjury samples soon. I was wondering, are they mixed with milk pre or post op?

Then I was wondering, if it is gritty, as some say, maybe you could heat a little milk/water, (1/4 cup?) , mix the Protein mix in (to reduce truthiness) and then add the rest of the cold liquid to make a cold Protein shake.

If this can't apply, just pretend I was never here! ????.

        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
