What size was the nectar that you purchased. I'm a newbie and still researching products:). I found the Nectar Protein for $32.99 at www.vitacost.com. Have you tasted anymore flavors? Does it mix well (expecially On The Go)?

The Syntrax Nectar Roadside Lemonade was my saving grace too! I couldn't stomach the "milky" shakes. I added a packet of Crystal Light lemonade to give it an extra punch of flavor. Drink it over ice too. I also add the Syntrax Lemonade to plain Fage yogurt. It kind of tastes like a lemon cheesecake filling or custard. Yum.

I ordered a sample pack of the nectar flavors from the company. My favorite so far is the fuzzy navel. I mixed it with peach,orange, mango and pineapple juice and Water. So yummy... Also the lemonade with water and throw a few frozen strawberries in the blender. Crystal sky is ehh ok... caribbean cooler was ok. Very coconutty. Again mixed that with pineapple juice and water.

http://bjsbariatrics.com, you can pick 11 samples for $14.99, and with shipping it comes just under $20, unless you choose a different shipping option. I've ordered 3x with them and gotten it with a few days, with the regular first class shipping. I have tried some and have some definite favorites, just haven't pulled the trigger on committing to a actual tub, but I've narrowed it down, good luck!

Just checked them out they do have some different samples, which is cool, but as far the syntax nectar, which is what I've been buying, it's more expensive and you get 1 less packet than with bj bariatrics website. But it's cool that everyone gets there samples from different places.

I think the grapefruit flavor of nectar is even better than the lemonade. You might give it a try.

I don't know if there are any left but Vitamin Shoppe store (not online) had the Roadside Lemonade on clearance for $19.98! I was told it was until they sold out, as they were being discontinued. I don't know if that part is true. I also enjoyed the lemonade!

I love, love, love the Roadside Lemonade! The Fuzzy Navel is pretty good, too.

You can get a sample pack of 10 at bariatricpantry.com and you can choose your flavors. It's a nice change from the chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ones, that's for sure!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
