Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   |  I hate it all
Ok so I bought 2 bottles of isopure and hate them, I bought the unjury unflavored protein powder and OMG its aweful. I am gonna try my last protein powder that I liked before surgery today to see if I still like it but damn how bad this stuff tastes now. Any ideas out there that I could try to get my protein in?

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

My surgeon had me on Slim Fast low car shakes and also Carnation Instant Brekafast shakes that had no surgar added. Thats what they required of me for the beginiing. Not too bad tasting. But then again I can say that since Im past that stage.  I also drink the protein shake that doc and Lisa suggested to me on here. Its called Shelleys protein shake. It usues a protein powder from GNC and its called Vanilla ice cream flavor. I mix it with the Hoods low carb chocolate milk. But it may be too early for you to have all that.

Awww, (((((HUGS))))) Check out the threads in Vitamins and Nutrition, and also in Gastric Bypass Recipes. You may be able to find some ideas there.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I hate them too. Hence my previous posts. But you learn to tolerate them. Blend them with SF ice cream and milk they taste better.

awwww  The unjury unflavored should be mixed into stuff with flavor. i used it in soups and puddings in the beginning and then added it to ready to serve shakes. maybe try that? like i was mixing it into the atkins advantage shakes which only have 15 grams of protein, so with the unjury its 40g. i know this wasnt all absorbed but i came pretty close lol. isopure juice is GROSS. i agree. i use the vanilla one. the zero carb vanilla cream i think its called? and you can mix it in water you dont have to use milk. also you could try carnation instant breakfast, the no sugar added flavors, the protein is pretty low, around 15 grams again, but it tastes better. OR you could try those bullet things?? i cant remember who posted about those. hope that helps either way these take some getting used to in terms of the taste.

At first I liked the ISOPURE juices but by the second batch I got I no longer could tolerate them. I tried the EAS ready made protein but it tastes a little watery to me. I'm going to go back to the UNJURY Strawberry Sorbet. Mix it with Crystal Light Lemonade and it was yummy! Hopefully that is still true for me. I tried the Chocolate Stallone puddings and decided that they would be much better with cool whip!

Unfortunately your state buds change, don't know why, but they do. You just have to make them almost frozen and just get through it. It does get better! Roz

I 've tried the bullets and liked them. I like the cherry and the grape. They were way too sweet so I dilluted them with water. Not bad at all. Haven't tried my isopure yet.

I TOOK THE PRO-STAT 64 IN THE HOSPITAL AND EVEN BOUGHT SOME TO BRING HOME. WHICH YOU CAN ONLY BUY ONLINE. 1oz OF THIS STUFF HAS 15 GRAMS OF PROTEIN, NO FAT, NO SUGARS, ETC. AND IT PROMOTES HEALING. WHEATHER YOU LIKE THIS OR NOT ITS THE BEST. 1oz OF THIS STUFF HOLD YOUR NOSE AND THEN TAKE A TINY DRIP OF WATER TO TAKE THE TASTE OF YOUR TONGUE AND THRU OUT THE DAY YOU CAN DO THESE SHOTS. THATS HOW I CONSUME 90 GRAMS OF PROTEIN A DAY AND FEEL GREAT. I DONT THINK IT TASTE SO BAD THOUGH.
