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...

      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.
