Unjury protein

Thread Starter  

I just received my samples of Unjury protein. I bought one of each sample they had. Tonight I tried the vanilla... it says to mix it with milk, soy milk, coffee, or any of your favorite beverage. Well since I'm on my pre op diet I decided to mix it with water - it wasn't great at all. As a matter of fact, it was pretty bad. I've been told that Unjury is pretty good. Does anyone know if I should have mixed it with the milk??

Any advise on protein is helpful. I get banded in just a couple of days and I'm trying to see what I like best.

Bleh. I wouldn't mix any of the powders w/just water. I got the unjury samples and have mixed them with 60-cal no sugar pudding (when you mix it it becomes runny like pudding soup, but still tasty) and in a smoothie... couldn't tell at all. For the liquid stage, I'd suggest the Isopure drinks w/40 g protein in a bottle... the only one I've tried so far is the orange, and it was pretty good... a bit of an aftertaste, but ok. I've also tried the Micellar milk w/low-carb chai tea and that was good... a chai-tea latte w/lots of protein. The bariatriceating.com site has a variety pack w/recipes, you could check that out. It's a very personal thing, the whole protein powder/drink thing... good luck figuring out what works for you!

I was wondering if anyone has tried the protein water from special K... I picked up the lemon twist and it is pretty darn good. Why not try your unjury protein with a flavored water?

I use a scoop of chocolate Unjury and mix it with skim milk and 1/2 scoop of Slim Fast. That gives you about 30 g of protein for about 240 calories. I didn't care for the vanilla Unjury. I drink one of these protein shakes daily, for breakfast.

For the most part I use Unjury. I mix 1 scoop with 1 cup of skim milk...and throw it in the blender to avoid clumps...

Very rarely do I drink it with just powder and milk...

I normally add fruit to the vanilla... or a dash of cinnamon (kinda tastes like a cinnamon bun), or my fav. is to mix 1 scoop of vanilla with 1 cup of flat diet orange soda... tastes like a creamcicle.. yum.

With the chocolate I add a half banana and sometimes a little peanut butter.

Also from time to time I use the unflavored in my crystal light.

if you go to www.unjury.com they have a recipe page...

In my opinion, the vanilla Unjury doesn't taste very good. The chocolate and strawberry are much better. It's still a protein drink, though....
