I am 7 days post op and doing well but just can't hardly get the protein drinks down. I have tryed different kinds n they are all sweet or fruity flavored. I'm not to much on sweet stuff anyone else have issues getting in the protein because of taste? Would not be so bad if I could jus drink it down fast and get it over with but it takes most of the day to gag it down.....Been sipping lots of broth, water, tea, but the protein drink is my challenge getting down.

Unjury makes a chicken broth one. I hated it but there are many who love it. Especially if they are having trouble with the sweet shakes.

Unjury.com is where I have bought mine, you can also buy unflavored and add it to coffee, tea or broth. I have done that too, I'm not a big fan of the sweet stuff.

Thank you so much for the info. Im going to order some right now. I ordered a ton of the other stuff because the bariatric clinic said I needed to get it before surgery. We are very rural and not anyplace to get it here so ordered it and now I cant us it. The sweet stuff is just to much for me.

If you can order a sample of Nectar Lemon Tea maybe you would like it? I had gotten where I could not take the chocolate and vanilla any more and am really enjoying the lemon tea. hth

Mmmm yes, Syntrax Nectars are good, like juice instead of those creamy shakes

Order a couple samples first to see if you like it. I loved it and so did my husband but you have to be REALLY careful how you prepare it so it doesn't get clumpy. We'll be drinking it again when it gets cooler.

I love Unjury Chocolate Splendor and drink it every day with an added teaspoon of instant espresso - cuts the sweetness. But again, I'd caution you to order sample packets before committing to a whole canister of anything. The stuff isn't cheap!
