Matrix Chocolate or Cookies and Creme?



Recommended Posts

Just ordered the Matrix from said link! Cant wait to try it! I have been wanting to add more Protein to my diet. Thanks so much for sharing the link and product!

What flavor did you buy?

I like the above link, it is the cheapest place I have found. You can get the same stuff on ebay but the shipping is higher. I like the service and prices from that link.

WasaBB, I have tried to navigate the site link you posted (and it looks like an awesome online store) to find out if they sell samples or individual portions, but I can't seem to find anything like that. I'm assuming they don't, but since you've been there a bit more than me, I thought I'd sak if you know whether they do or not.

Faith...

I'm sorry! I have your Matrix sitting right here next to me. I swear to you, I'll have it out in tomorrow's mail. I'll send it Priority Mail! I totally forgot, I am so sorry! I hope you like the Cookies and cream, I sure didn't but I've only seen one other person (this thread) that didn't like it.

I'll PM you today about something else I wanted to tell you too.

My apologies!!!!

You know what as much as I loved the Cookies and creme sample I am pissed that I ended up getting the whole big bag after I ran out of chocolate. It is okay but man you can do a whole heck of a lot more with chocolate.

I want to try the sugar free Peanut Butter Syrup. I have devoloped a bit of an addiction to adding Peanut Butter to my shakes and we all well know haw fricken fattening the stuff is.

I just got that stuff and I'm not sure if I don't like it or if I haven't found the right amount to add. I've only tried it a couple of times and I think it has potential, but it sure isn't the real deal. :D

No, don't feel that way. I have only tried it twice and I think it has potential, but I just haven't found a good way to use it yet. Sometimes it takes me a bit of time to figure out how much to use and which flavors to mix.

There is only one Da Vinci that I think is absolutely disgusting and that is the "Spice" flavor. OMG, that stuff is horrible. It's bitter and tastes terrible. Remember when you were a kid and your Mom would soak the thermometer in alcohol and she didn't rinse it off well enough before sticking it in your mouth? THAT is what Spice tastes like. Gahhh, it's gross.

PB has potential, I just have to work with it a bit. You might find the right use the first time.

I'd go for chocolate. WASaBubbleButt sent me some Cookies and cream Matrix samples. They're okay, but not as good as the chocolate Matrix. The cookie bits kind-of settle out, making it very gritty towards the end. It's a little too sweet for me, also. The Cookies and cream is way better than a lot of the Protein drinks I've tried (stay far, FAR away from Protein Delite mixes), but still isn't what I'd call "yummy."

I've not tried the Matrix orange cream flavor, but I've tried another brand's orange cream flavor, and it SUCKED.

If you want something sweet and candy-flavored, try the nectar Apple Ecstasy and Strawberry-Kiwi flavors. I couldn't drink them every day, but they aren't bad for a change.

Yeah I have tried the nectar, and like you say they are okay but too sweet for everyday use. Another one I have found is by Focus 28 and I think is called wildberry passion. It tastes just like red hawaiian punch. But still too sweet for everyday use.

      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.
