I just ordered the punch flavor. I have not yet tasted them but I purchased with the mind set of making popsicles and adding it to jello...I hope it works out ????

This may seem like a really dumb question but has anyone tried using any of the "non flavored" Protein powders with Powerade zero, crystal light or anything like that?

I just started drinking the Is oPure drinks. I found it heavy by itself so I dilute it.

I found them to be very chalky and bitter, I think I will try adding sweetener to them. It could be because I was only a couple of days post op. I bought 12 of the grape frost and 12 of the punch, have yet to try the punch. I am only 5 days post op and can only stomach about two ounces at a time. I will not buy anymore I dont care for the flavor very much, but everyone is different.

I have made shakes several different ways in the past. I would use the unflavored mix with almond milk, banana, strawberries and fruit juice. It always turned out great, but be sure and add plenty of ice.

I really like the small bottles in the Four pack from Amazon. I mix a bottle with Water 50/50 everyday and I get my fluids and 15g of Protein just by sipping all day. I like the alpine punch.

Icy Orange is good. Sometimes I add a packet of sugar free Water flavor to enhance it. The kool aid sugar free packets.

I can drink the Isopure grape and alpine punch but only if they are super cold....if I have 5 ice cubes in the glass it works well for me. I am pre-surgery but I have been replacing one snack a day with about 8oz of Isopure.

I also found a variety of non flavoured Protein powders at whole foods so I will try some of those to see which ones I can tolerate.

I learned I do not like unjury unflavoured. I love their chocolate...but the unflavoured had a smell that I couldnt get past......

I tried GENE PRO unflavoured powder and it worked well b/c I didnt taste a thing. They sent me a sample of 2 packs for just a few dollars.

I used them when I was on my pure liquid diet. I actually liked them... some flavors more than others. I just bought the Black Tea flavored one. It's not bad, if you like your tea on the lemony side. I may just mix it with some regular tea to temper the lemon. (I like black tea).

So today I got the alpine punch and is ok so far I see what everyone means about the after taste but so far is better than the Protein shakes!!

I have tried Grape, and Iced Tea Lemon. Both need to be diluted, or mixed with something. It is a great source of Protein, and fluids. :)

I just picked up a bottle of passion fruit and a bottle of coconut. I got about 1/8th ... I lie, 1/10th of the way into passion fruit (if that) till I couldn't drink anymore. Capped it and since it's high in Protein and clear, and seems perfect for when I'm post op, I will give it another good ol' college try again tomorrow. I'm hoping coconut will taste better.

Side note: I also picked up a canister of Unflavored Isopure and tried that with Water. It's got that same taste that I'm picking up from the passion fruit drink that I do not like (a bit "plasticy"), but I'm going to try and make the best of it since I can't take it back. Maybe I'll add some orange extract or vanilla extract to give it a diff flavor w/o adding sugar...

      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.
