Fun with Protein powder....



Recommended Posts

So, I received my order form powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and decided to start experimenting with the unflavored Protein powder. Well.....lets just say my first attempt was a tad unsuccessful!

So, I decided I wanted to add unflavored Protein Powder to broth. I learned quickly to let the broth cool and NOT to add it while on the stove and hot! LOL It turned into huge clumps to Protein Powder in the pan....got rid of that quickly !!!

So, tell me how you add Protein powder to things and anyone ever successfully added it to broth? After the clumping debacle I gave up and just settled for plain broth but would like to find a way to augment it with protein in the future.

yea I think it clumps if the liquid is over 140 degrees. I've never added it to broth (I use their chicken Soup flavored Protein powder, though), but I've added it to things like chili (but not while it's super hot!). Their unflavored Protein *does* have a taste, so it's better to add it to really flavorful things (like chili) - then you don't taste it.

When it comes to Protein I find my bullet blender is my best friend. I like adding fruit to my Protein, berries, banana, and even apple sauce.

I have used the unflavored powder in broth for my whole pre-op. as long as the temperature is below 140 degrees, it is fine. The same goes for the unjury chicken Soup (which I love).

      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.
