I have a pound container of Syntrax nectar. Any suggestions of the best way to eat it? I tried it in broth (pre-op) and it got kinda foamy, but it was tolerable. I tried it in some diet juice but it seemed to make the juice really sweet & I couldn't finish drinking it.

Any suggestions?

I sent away for the Syntrax Nectar sample packs. I thought they were ok when I drank about 2 of them before surgery. Now, after surgery, I can't stomach (pun intended) them. If anyone would like to have them, I would be happy to give them to you for the price of the shipping.

I bought a sample bag and I tried the apple something earlier and it was awful!! I'm wondering how to drink it as well. I thought it would be good listening to most comments about it but its not me to...

I love the Syntrax nectar drinks, especially the lemonade, lemon tea and cappucino flavors. But then again, I don't like most others because they're all vanilla and chocolate (yuk).

I use unflavored in Jello for more Protein. You can't use Protein in liquids above 130 degrees or it will clump and foam. I make Jello like regular with 1-2cups of hot boiling Water, mix it, let it sit until room temp. Then take 1-2cups of room temp Water and mix with a scoop of protein. Then mix it all together when it's not hot. Chill and then it's a treat later!

I bought the sample pack and tried to mix it in Water and I couldn't get it to mix well.

What about mixing it with Water and some flavor and making your own popsicles? If you have kids (or company), you could serve it to them.....?

lol or in my old days, i would have suggested making Jello shots :) lol

Here's what I do with unflavored - if I have a shake that is too sweet I do 3/4 scoop of it and 1 scoop of unflavored. I have also mixed it with half and half before adding to my coffee. You can also make your own with a few scoops of unflavored, milk, and Quick. Also, I used it in hot chocolate. In hot stuff I had my best luck mixing it with something room temp then pouring that in to the hot item.

Do you have a Blender Bottle? I bought a large one at Bed, Bath and Beyond, love it. So I ordered more from their website - mixes in seconds!

I bought sample packs as well. Only tried the caribbean cooler flavor. I've never actually drank pee, but I'm almost positive it tastes like that. :/

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
