Isopure unflavored protein tips



Recommended Posts

I’m one month post op! The last week or two I haven’t been getting much Protein down due to not being able to hold diary or creamy based Protein Drink and it’s kicking me in the butt now so I’m back on track and focused for success!

I’ve tried the Isopure protein juices, no good yuck. I couldn’t stomach it. I know I don’t NEED to like it but I wanna atleast drink something that doesn’t make me dry heave lol.

I bought the Isopure unflavored protein! I’ve added it to my fruit and veggie smoothies so far, I’ve heard people just mix it in with their Water or water + crystal light.

What are some of your favorite things to put it in to meet your protein requirements?

I tried Isopure, but the taste was awful. My wife seemed to like it. I used Muscle Milk Light (Vanilla Creme) powder blended with Water and a half a banana. That was the closest thing I could find that I could tolerate.

I add the Isopure Unflavored to homemade chicken and beef broth, then stir in a spoon of cream of chicken, cream of mushroom, or other creamy Soup.

I also stir it into spicy V-8, then heat the V-8 and add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese or brewer's nutritional yeast to taste like Tomato Soup.

I also use it to make Protein pancakes (but you probably can't have that yet).

This is my favorite smoothie. You can probably handle it now, but check with your doc:

1 scoop Isopure Protein Powder

1/2 tsp extract (love banana)

1oz frozen blueberries

1oz frozen spinach

3g benefiber for Fiber

12fl oz Water, or unsweetened vanilla coconut milk, etc

4 cubes ice

Blend to smithereens and add ice cubes, then blend until smooth.

I add to coffee and oatmeal. It adds a little creaminess.

Before you buy this be sure to check in with your Dr or Nutritionist. But...I a huge coffee drinker for sure. BTW BariatricPal Store has a new product, it is NO ACID COFFEE Even my hubby likes it. LOL So back to unflavored Protein: I put GENEPRO in my Espresso every day. No taste at all. Win-win for me!!! It definitely has no taste at all. I tried Isopure and personally, it was so gross!! I commend anyone that can drink it!! GROSS!! I tried a Protein unflavored called PROTEINEX!! According to my DR. that is why I ordered it. He was wrong!!

      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.
