PROTEIN

[Dolittle]

I'm one of those WLS patients that has issues getting in my daily required intake of protein. Right now I'm in the 3rd week of the sleeve post-op diet. To me,, protein shakes are something to be desired, tastefully speaking, most are just tolerable.

The other day I went searching on-line and found www.unjury.com and ordered their 5 star tasting, 21g protein chicken broth mix.

I have never posted anything like this before, but when I find something good, I'll tell you about it.

I found the 21g protein chicken broth to be exactly as advertised and it does taste like chicken cup o soup without the noodles.

I may order their unflavored protein, so I can add it to other things to get my protein in. I'll keep you posted on that product when I get it and try it. If any you forum members have tried it, please post your opinions on this product or other brands of protein.

I've never tried the OCC's Enspira protein, but I've had reports that it's a good product too.

What's your opinion on it?

Has anyone tried the Enspira products?

I order all my protein drinks from http://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/

The soups taste good but I really like the hot drinks, amaretto cappuccino is my favorite. I also mix the caramel or butterscotch pudding mixes with Kefir probiotics and water for breakfast shakes. The cold protein drinks are pretty good too. I like orange or the pineapple orange. I need a lot of variety and have yet to get sick of any protein shakes, soups, or drinks.

I tried the Enspira production and I LOVED them. The shakes were very tasty. Then they changed the formula and were NASTY. The protein was reduced to only 13 grams! I sent them back and have never received a refund. Supposedly the formula was suppose to change in August and offer more protein but I haven't had the nerve to re-order.

I order the 'good' stuff in April and the 'bad' stuff in June. I need to email Lucia and find out what they are really shipping these days.
