Question:
Heard of the new SOY JUICY?

Hi everyone! I don't know if anyone has already posted this so I thought I would let you know- there is a new juice out that has <b>7 grams of protein</b> per 8 ounces!! It's called <i>Soy Juicy</i> - I bought it at Food Lion (S.C.) for $3.50 for 64 ounces. Its not thin like regular juice, but not overly thick though its soy milk. There are at least 4 flavors- I purchased Sunburst (soymilk and orange) and Soy Berry Breeze (soymilk, cherry and apple). The taste is not fantastic, but do-able. It reminds me of a smoothie so if you add ice and fruit to it, it would probably be really good. Nutrition facts per 8 ounces- calories-160, fat-3g, carbs-25g, sugars-24g. I don't have any problems dumping via sugar, but I am aware that the carbs are somewhat high. Since I am having such a hard time getting my protein in, I think its a fair trade. I cannot tolerate most meats, so this is good for me. Let me know what you think!    — karmiausnic (posted on January 16, 2003)

Hey! I am not even post op, yet, however I think the drink has way too many carbs and sugars. I know you say you do not dump on sugar, but it has quite a bit. I would think twice before drinking too much of it. Have you hear of Physicans Weight Loss center? It so, see if you can buy some of their protein drinks.They also have good protein bars. I am sure they have one over at the beach, if not I know they do in Sumter, and Florence.They have an awesome protein drink. It is kinda pricey but If I remember right it has over 15 grams of protein.Wild Berry and hot chocolate are great. I only know this because I use to work at the one in Sumter-6 years ago. Moved from area 2 yrs ago and really miss the beach-lucky you!!! Good Luck!!
