which Protein powder is the best? I live am an American living in Germany and my choices are limited. I am willing to purchase online but don't want to spend a bunch of money on something I can't tolerate eating.

Do you like Isopure or powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury better? which flavor? I am leaning towards the unflavored but is it REEALLLY unflavored? does it have an aftertaste or does it change the texture at all? I HATE the Isopure drinks. It would be great if I could find some sample packs to purchase and try.

TIA

I personally physically gagged on both of them. Just my experience only. They are pretty much all about the same price range. I had something in the hospital that I buy on line that I just love. The brand is Syntrax and the powder is called nectar. It comes in Truffle which of course is chocolate flavored and my fave. And it also comes in a range of other flavors like, orange and strawberry. It has 35 grams of Protein. Very creamy and smooth. They have a website under Syntrax.

I didn't like either in your pole. Unjury has aspartame in it. I personally really like Designers whey Protein Powder. You can probably do an internet search for it. It has splenda in it and is really good. Also try bellplantation.com. The powdered Peanut Butter is an excellent add in to the shakes. Its just dried peanut butter, no chemicals.

Sounds like you are looking for a clear Protein. If you are interested in protein powder, I really like the vanilla flavored Matrix2 or Matrix5. I mix it in a blender with a little non-fat milk, a banana and ice and I really love it.

I agree on the Isopure Clear stuff - ick. For powdered, I like Isopure Vanilla and Matrix chocolate. With the vanilla, it says use 2 scoops. I found that using only one was a bit better-tasting. Of course, you get less Protein that way but I prefer using less. Someone posted a list of 200 Protein shakes on here: www.freeproteinshakerecipes.com. There were tons of different combos. I'd think vanilla or unflavored would be a safe bet. You can just change it up! Good luck!

And unjury offers single-serve packets...great way to try it out before buying a huge container.

Hope this helps! TPG

i just really need something and I have a very sensitive palate and can taste everything. If its not decent tasting, I don't want to waste my money. I did buy some samples of the nectar and hope it is pretty good when it comes. At this point though, I really can't even stand the thought of having a whole shake or whatever to get the Protein in. Any good tasting shots out there? Thanks for all the help!

Let me know how you like it. You only have to mix one scoop (comes in the jar) to six ounces of either skim milk or Water. I like the skim milk because it makes it so smooth. Most of the shots are 5 oz. so it really isn't that much more. It doesn't take long to drink at all.

      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.
