I didn't know which flavors to try but then I found a Sample pack here: http://www.mybariatricpantry.com/SYNTRAX_NECTAR_PROTEIN_POWDER_SAMPLES_p/nectar-sample.htm

I've only tried the Caribbean Cooler its pretty good.

I use them. I mix them with Water cause I get the fruity ones. I like the lemonade. I did not like Cappuccino one at all. It was too sweet for me. The fuzzy navel one is pretty good too. I try to use more than a scoop. Sometimes two.

Awesome!!! I ordered on Amazon but was worried cause I saw it was only 6g Protein.... But that was for 1 serving which is 1/4 scoop!

I use the cappuccino one in the morning, mix a full scoop with Water and a few cubes of ice, I think it's yummy!!!

I primarily use the chocolate but I like the strawberry and cappuccino too. Using a full scoop though is way to sweet for me so I use 1/2 a scoop with 8oz of skim milk to total 19.5 grams of Protein. I'm 3+ months out and don't need to be on Protein shakes anymore but I still have 1 a day because I enjoy the flavor, convenience, and the nutritional benefit.

I'm on Clear Liquids and have been mixing a full scoop of the unflavored one into broth, Jello, juice and Gatorade.

I like nectar double cookie with both Water and soy milk. Matrix oreo is the best. Usually I use soy milk in the morning and water for 2 other snacks(3pm and 8 pm). Lost 85 lb so far in about 2 months and 1 week. Best of luck!

Yes, i have 3oz some Protein for lunch (usually chicken), 3 oz some protein for dinner (chicken, salmon, beef). I also go out from time to time and order something that will work protein wise ( red robin, olive garden, famous daves, whatever). I try and mix things up a little, but do minimize carbs(no fruit, some veggies, no bread). I became lactose intolerate so drink soy with shakes. The vanilla soy lite is awesome with oreo flavored shakes. Calories are prob around 600 a day, but don' t count. I mainlt try and do the 80-100 gram protein a day and 100+ oz of Water.< /p>

andycharris mentioned the Matrix line by the same people who make the nectar. I have to agree it is pretty yummy. I ordered sample packs of both the Nectar and Matrix from bariatric pantry(they had them on sale so I went for it) and am working my way through the samples and making a list of the ones I really like, sorta like, etc.

So far I tend to like nectar for my fruity and mixed with Water drinks. It can be a bit foamy and settles easily. But the taste outweighs the maintenance (frequent shaking). And I like matrix for the sweet ones I mix with almond milk.

chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, cappichin are the best ones. Get the sample packs where you can try a lot of different ones and go from there. I use Water and ice, and sometimes a little PB2 with cocoa. It's powdered Peanut Butter with cocoa. I bought it from Amazon. You have to look around, but I find Syntrex nectar Sweets to be the best tasting. Isopure is gross. lol

Bestpricenutrition.com offers an 11pack sample for 16.00. Both times I ordered they sent 14 samples though. They send fruity and nectar sweets samples.The sweets are yummy. Most are really good, the matrix too. I've only found a couple of the fruit ones I can cross off my list (pink grapefruit, apple was eh ok). I bought them for my mom too. She hates Protein tastes..she has liked them. And loves Unjury chicken. Their chocolate and vanilla are good too.

      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.
