Got My Sample Pack Of Syntrax Nectar



Recommended Posts

A word of caution, after sleeve surgery, if you are like most.you are going have some changes to your taste likes and dislikes and tolerance to different temps . I would suggest lots of sample sizes and sample again after surgery before ordering large amounts of any thing.

That is EXACTLY how I was planning on doing it. Thanks for the tip though.

I just tried the nectar in strawberry sorbet. Pretty decent. I mixed it with 10 ounces fat free milk. My sleeve is July 13th!!

I just ordered some Syntrax Nectar samples too. I have the Unjury and about time samples, just haven't worked up the nerve to try them yet. Has anyone tried the muscle milk?

I had the Cappuccino Latte with Almond milk and ice blended and it blended up Perfectly!!! Was pretty good too. I liked that it was not thick and chalky At all!

^^^are you "pulsing" or straight blending? i don't know what i'm doing wrong. I haven't tried it with milk because the flavors i've tried were fruit flavor and i didn't think milk would mix well with a fruit juice. does that make sense?

Idk what it is lol. I have a personal blender with its own cup, it was $29 at Walmart, made by Oster. It has 1 speed and it was mixed perfectly. I would say to blend it though. And if I were using a fruity one i'd probably just use Water. You could always strain it through a sieve to get clumps out if it's that bad. ? Idk what else to tell you, sorry!

They mix better in room temp liquid. I did not have good luck mixing in cold liquids at all.

Love the cappuccino flavor - I have the first thing in the morning. It helps the fact that I'm no longer having my coffee. Sometimes I will warm up the milk.

I was sleeved on 01/30/12 and I've been through a lot of Protein Shakes. I am so glad to have found Syntrex Nextar Sweets. My favorite one is the chocolate Truffle. I just bought a tub of that one. I also like the vanilla bean torte, and the strawberry. I just do ice, Water, and a little powdered chocolate Peanut Butter I bought from Amazon. Its really yummy and I started with the samples from BJsBariatrics. These are the best tasting Protein shakes out there.

The EAS Advantage RTD comes in 2 packages the 17 gr Protein gives you like 24 cartons; but the 20 gr protein I think gives you 18 cartons. I get mine at Sam's. I also like the premium from costco - it has 30 gr protein.

Wow! Thank you; I would've never thought to strain the drinks to get rid of the unmixed powder. I am sorta afraid to use the blender because of the "foam"; will it give me gas? Should I like..make it and let it settle in the fridge for a couple of hours?

      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.
