Is there a protein powder that disolves?



Recommended Posts

I'm struggling with my Protein Powder at the moment. I don't have a small fortune to spend on trying all the different types of Protein out there. I hate the gritty protein powders that don't disolve in my smoothies and such. Does anyone have any suggestions for protein powder that disolves, especially if it comes unflavored so I can use it in more things without altering the taste?

Most folks LOVE unjury.

unjury.com

I just went there and ordered one sample packet of the chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and three of the unflavored Protein. All together it was $13.45 including shipping for the six packets. I'd rahter pay that than pay $20 to $40 for a large amount of gross stuff.

I'm looking for unflavored Protein that I can put in HOT foods. Haven't found it yet, anyone?

I haven't had any Protein yet that I've tried in hot foods. I think I remember hearing something about not mixing in protein at high temperatures, though. Someone else will likely have more info on that, but just wanted to throw it out as a caution. steph

I thought the strawberry Unjury was the NASTIEST think ever. I ordered a big container of the chocolate because everyone raved about the taste. It smelled good when I opened it. I tried it and it is really not that good. But I am not sure if it is just me or the soy or whey that is in it that I am not used to. I didn't even use the whole container because I found some really yummy already made shakes that I found at Albertsons. I am not remembering the name of the shake right now, but you could search my posts and find it. They were YUMMY in my opinion and tasted like a shake. Good luck on finding the right one, and remember you won't likely be on the Protein Shakes for long. Deanna

try beneprotein. I got it online at walgreens.com. It's about $11 with shipping. I have been using it in my morning smoothies for a couple of months now and it seems to do the trick. It was actually the Protein powder the nurse at my dr's office suggested, she also has a lap band.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
