Hello Everyone, What is a good nectar flavor? I have only tried the Fuzzy Navel. What are other menu ideas besides eating it with yogurt?

I had the caribbean cooler flavor for Breakfast and it was good. I'm still on liquids so I am mixing mine with cold Water only right now. I still have other flavors to try as well. I'll post as to how those taste to me as I try them.

So far, I have tried them all but the grapefruit. I have mixed them with Water, milk, almond milk, juice and tea. You can also mix with coffee, but I don't drink coffee. There were none of them that I couldn't drink. I just prefer some over others. My favorites were the lemonade one in Water and the tea one in tea.

I spoke to nutritionist on the phone. I'm over 4 weeks out and I'm still on liquids. I called to beg to be moved to pureed because I'm at a loss on the getting in my shakes. It took me 4 hours to get down the Pure Protein frosty chocolate this morning.

She declined me moving to pureeds until my next appointment on Monday, I was hoping to have some pureed tuna tomorrow.

So I called to order the sampler and nobody answered at Syntrax twice and I looked up Vitamin Shoppe and there is one near me and they sell Syntrax nectar. It's on sale on their website for $33.49, which is $26.00 cheaper than buying it from the company.

The consensus I have read here is the Fuzzy Navel is one of the favorite flavors and I went and picked some up. I really truly hope that it's doable because I am Done..with a capital D of chocolate anything for a while.

I'll let you know how I fair tomorrow.

This is the number to order the nectar samples from Syntrax. 866 333 7403 ext 803. You must call between 8-5 Mon thru Fri (not sure if it is eastern or central time). Currently there are 14 flavors in the sample order for $14.00. Syntrax covers the shipping.

Wish I had known that bc I ordered from Mybariatricpantry.com and got 11 for 18.95+3.95 shipping + 1 free sample of my choice.

I think I may still call them and do another order that way I have enough for after surgery until I figure out what I want and like. I'm excited to try the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury ones too, specifically the chicken Soup one. My Syntrax will be here on thursday(would have been the 4th but of course it's a holiday lol).

Vitamin Shoppe had different Syntrax nectar 2 lb. tubs on sale for $33.49. Once you decide on a flavor you like. http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/search/controller?N=0&Ntk=SiteSearch&Ntt=syntrax%20nectar&Nty=1&D=syntrax%20nectar&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&Dx=mode+matchall

The price at Syntrax is $59.95. http://www.si03.com/shop/shopdisplayproducts.asp

Vitamin Shoppe does not have the variety sampler.

I am drinking the fuzzy navel, I used very cold Water, plus ice cubes and mixed it in my magic bullet. It was very very frothy and I gave it time to rest and now it's more like a drink with a head on it.

I didn't gag, it doesn't have that horrible Protein after-taste. It does have less Protein that the Pure Protein Frosty chocolate that I was drinking. (I used to mix it with skim milk 25 grams plus the skim milk) but I will do a cup of skim milk for a snack at some point which will add more protein.

This is so much more doable than the thick shakes that took me 4 hours to get down fighting as they kept coming back up. Thank goodness. I think I would like to try the tea or Lemonade next.

I tried the Twisted cherry flavor, and used that for quite a while. I also bought the Carribean Cooler and Lemonade flavors, but never even tried them. Sort of kicking myself now, since I am unable to return them :(

I love Syntrax Nectar so much. This is probably my 5th post about it on here. I got the sampler from bariatricchoice.com, and the one for $14 from the company itself. I currently have one tub of vanilla bean torte, one tub of chocolate truffle, and one tub of strawberry mousse. For breakfast I mix one scoop with 4-8oz milk and 8oz Water. I shake it up in my blenderbottle, and that's breakfast!

I will probably get a tub of lemonade to mix with just water.

I ordered some of the sample packs but didn't get the Crystal Blue bc I had no idea what it tasted like. What does it taste like?

Also anyone- does the lemonade taste good and is it thin like lemonade? Not thick like a Protein shake?

Thanks!

I get all mine from bjsbariatrics.com... they are about 6dollars cheaper than anywhere else I've seen.

      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.
