Unjury makes chicken soup protein powder that's great and unflavored that I put in beef broth right after surgery.

I know this is an older post, but I saw that you did go through with the revision. How are things going? Are you happy with the results? How was the recovery period. I hear its much tougher the second time around.

Muscle Milk is the only protein shake I can stomach! No as for the strawberries and cream.... That's the worst one you could try! LOL! The best by far is the Vanilla Creme then the Banana Creme and the Cookies and Creme. Try those... If you like Banana you will love that one for sure.

Topic: RE: protein powders/drinks

Good ideas! I still need to find an unflavored protein that I can add to things. I've just been drinking the shakes but I haven't experimented with adding it to meals/snacks yet. I did find a really clever idea on Pinterest for us coffee lovers though. Basically, you can just order a couple shots of espresso over ice in 16oz cold cup and then pour your protein shake in. So you're not completely forced to give up your iced lattes. It's silly but I got SO EXCITED when I found this idea!

Topic: RE: Vitamins

I actually use gummies because chewables and pills made me sick, literally. I also break them up and take half in the morning and the rest at night. My tummy is sensitive to those things too, so you're not alone. I'm contemplating trying the patches... Have you heard good things about them?
