My very favorite is the Fuzzy navel. I have been drinking this for years. I was banded eight years ago drank it then, and now revised in Dec to RNY and drank pre op and post op. It is really great to do something without milk. I love it. At the Vitamin Shoppe you can get single serve size so you can try some different flavors before you commit to the big barrel (just kidding but they do seem huge) also BJ Baratirics have single serve available on line and they have great service very quick and inepensived shipping. I love them.

Fuzzy navel is my favorite, followed by double stuffed cookie and Roadside Lemonade. The cookie one I mix with 1/2 milk 1/2 Water or add the mix straight to pudding or Greek yogurt, mixed with mild and blenderize with ice cubes it is much like Cookies n cream ice cream. I have fuzzy navel almost daily at work, pour over crushed ice and sip all day. I did NOT like the lemon tea....the color and texture just totally grossed me out, I couldn't finish the bottle :/. Roadside eom add I add crystal light lemonade and extra Water, helps mask the proteiny taste a bit.

Good luck, hope you like em!! Been a lifesaver for me!!!!

I really like that Syntrax Nectar is not thick. The Protein seems to dissolve completely in Water. I use a whisk or fork to really stir it well. The flavors I liked best were green apple ecstasy and Twisted cherry. I've yet to try the peach, but lots of people seem to love that one.

I got my nectar yesterday and it is not that bad. I tried fuzzy naval and it didn't make me nauseous like the milky tasting ones do. I am going to try kiwi strawberry today.. Still love Unjury chicken broth-my absolute favorite..

Kiwi strawberry nectar- also good. I have found that I put more the the 4 oz of Water they suggest starting with. I put between 8-12..I bet some crystal light mixed in would make an awesome drink...

I tried fuzzy navel and apple ecstacy. I didn't like either of them! I felt like they needed some sort of sourness to them. Also, the smell really bugged me. lol

      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.
