Oh and I usually do about 1/2 scoop, otherwise it's too thick.

This will be my first time trying it with Unjury. I usually add the Syntrax Mint Cookie or the Syntrax PB Cookie to vanilla. I'll report back later and tell you if it was edible!

I don't use protein powder a ton anymore, but this Nectar Medical Unflavored is pretty much as unflavored as you possibly get with a protein powder. I put it in overnight oats mostly, but have used it in all kinds of things in the past.

I find the Unjury less sweet. I couldn't stomach the BA after surgery and had to find an alternative.

Oh a thigh lift, that is exciting!!

QOTD: Yeah not eating before I weigh in is totally a "THING" with me.  But with my surgeon's office they make the appointments for you, so you dont get to pick a time.  LAME!! I still dip my fork in my dressing instead of pouring it on my salad, I learned this trick from a nutritionist my mother made me go see as a teenager.

I had a good weekend, eating wise, I resisted most temptations, even watched the hubby and kids eat Dairy Queen!  I still a little over my 5 lbs goal weight cushion, but am working to get rid of it.  I really wanted to lose a little more weight so I would have a nice cushion for maintenance...well that didnt happen because ..well...I just eat too much stuff I shouldn't...

I've only started doing the fork in the dressing when I eat out since WLS. Not so much for the calories but I know I won't finish the salad and want to take the leftovers home. Old salad with dressing on it already is nasty....

YES!!  That is another good reason that I do it now also, I can have salad leftovers if I don't put the dressing on the whole salad!

Hot as an oven here in Illinois today. It was 81 at 538 am when Lily and I went to walk but we got it done! I'll probably do another 1.25 at least after the sun goes down. Post op almost 47 months and weight at 118.4 today. I got busy yesterday and had a hard time getting my liquids in so my goal today is to stay on top of it--especially important with this heat! Can't think of any diet tricks that worked guess that's why I had surgery. I like later appointments at my weight loss surgeon because the PA wants me to weigh a bit more like 125 and later in the day I do. My rheumatologist however is fine with where I'm at as is my actual surgeon because they know the lighter weight is so much better for my joints. The PA is of the mindset that I shouldn't have been able to get to a normal bmi,much less the lower end. The 5 more pounds she likes makes a huge difference in the amount of joint pain I feel from my RA and since I can't take NSAIDS the lower weight is crucial for my comfort.  So every appointment she complains and then he says it's all fine. Food for today is B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter added L 31/2 oz deli turkey and cheese 1/2 c blackberries D 31/2 oz ground beef (from last night)1/2 c green beans. Had a treat last night instead of burgers--1 small square piece of meat galore pizza on Flatbread crust. Not something I do every day but it was good! Before surgery I would have eaten at least 4 pieces but one was plenty. Bedtime snack will be a mission one chocolate chip cookie protein bar.  Hope everyone has a great day full of amazingly choices!

Wow meat galore pizza...sounds yummy. That is so funny that you have to do your appointment at the end of the day... the games to make everyone happy. Put a roll of quarters in your pocket...LOL.

I am going to have to try the Mission One bars. I fell in love with the Kirkland brand I bought at Costco in Chicago. Quest-like, very filling and not so sweet that it sets off 'I want more sugar'...but they don't have it at my Costco and I checked in DC too when I was there....

One time I put a lead fishing weight in my pocket just to make her happy!
