I've contacts so many Protein companies and I'm frustrated at the fact their samples are so high. Unjury wanted 28 dollars for a few sample packets. I understand not wanting to send samples for free but it's frustrating to be gouged.

I wish there was a newbie club where we could sample this stuff lol

*dry sobs*

Back to easy ol' Premier Protein for me I guess.

Unjury's sample pack is worth it, if you're interested in trying it! You get 10 packets (2 each of the chocolate splendor, strawberry sorbet, vanilla, unflavored, and chicken soup), as well as a Blender Bottle and a food thermometer, as you don't want the chicken Soup one to be added to Water greater than 140F or it will denature.

I have tried DOZENS of Protein powders, from premiere to muscle milk to eas to vega one to trader joe's soy to sun warrior to Isopure and Syntrax. The unjury is BY FAR the best tasting, imo. You don't get any of that gross whey taste, and it's 0g lactose for those of us with dairy issues! If you're interested in it, I'd definitely order the sample pack.

I love the unjury unflavored because no smell (to me) and it mixes really well. I just wish they sold larger bottles with a little savings. I have a 3lb container of Isopure unflavored and it has a smell to me, so I am mixing a half a scoop with my 13gr of Protein yogurt to get more Protein and when this tub is gone I will go back to Unjury.

I've always had good luck with Optimum Nutrition. They have more than a dozen flavors and it readily dissolves in milk OR Water.

In the grand scheme - $28 for the Unjury sample kit isn't bad. I got it and am glad I did - I will be definitely be ordering the bigger bottles of a few of the flavors. Even not considering the Blender Bottle and the thermometer you get with it, $28 for 10 packets works out to $2.80 each...which means $2.80 per meal. Bet you are paying more than $2.80 for a meal right now.

unjury made me sick every time. I can't even stand the smell.

It was the unflavored but it had a weird taste to me and like I said so nauseous and threw up every time.

I had to try a few different types before finding something that worked for me, but I would absolutely not waste that much money on something to sample.

My NUT gave me a few scoops of Unjury so I could try it - might try asking at your doc's office if anyone has a single serve or small sample pack for less (or free).

It wouldn't be 2.80 a meal as I would be mixing it with purchased milk or nut milk lol but I get what you're saying. I'm actually an extremely frugal person and my home cooked meals rarely hit the $2.80 mark lol. Mostly hovering around $1.45 per person per meal. Luckily I found a health store that is willing to cut me a deal for multiple

I love the Syntrax Nectars. I get the single serve packets at our Drug Emporium for $1.79.

This website offers sample packs in their store. Granted now that i can eat bars they are easier for me to get Protein in because its easier to eat at work. So some have 20g and 30g in One Bar. The Quest bars are good, the oh Yeah birthday cake is yummy. The Vitamin shop has tons of choices that you can try in singles. Different protein meat sticks, protein "oatmeal", etc. prices arent bad either. Just shop the sales.

I just got the Isopure variety pack yesterday and omg the aftertaste and smell is horrible. Still 10 more bottles to go through. At least the sales guy at GNC is hot so I have motivation to finish drinking the Protein bottles quick! ????

      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.
