Coffee Lovers recipe



Recommended Posts

For those who love coffee and have a hard time with getting their protien shakes in.

I had a hard time with protien shakes after surgery. i had read about Syntrax nectar, the company is now owned by Bariatric Advantage.

So I tried the caribbean cooler and it was a bit to sweet for me but very doable.

Back to yesterday and my trip to the Vitamin shoppe. They had a wide variety of the Syntrax Nectar. They had both sample size and the big tubs.

I got the Cappuccino and also the choclate.

I took about 8oz of Decaf coffee and one scoop of the Cappuccino and mixed it in a blender. End result it taste pretty good if you like those international delight cappuccino mix. It is 100 calories and 23 grams of protien. Plus it is a no sugar and no carb mix.

Also the chocolate was very good.

Chike brand of Protein coffee is awesome. Good hot or cold. Add unsweetened cocoa powder to make a mocha. I bought it online direct.

I am a coffeeholic! Some of my favorite coffee Protein drinks:

  • 1 scoop Chike (standard serving for Chike is two scoops, but I only use one because otherwise it is too high calorie for me) + 2 tsp instant espresso powder, mixed with skim milk, or Carbmaster milk if that is available
  • 1/2 packet Syntrax Nectar cappucino + 1/2 scoop Unjury chocolate splendor, mixed with milk
  • 1 scoop Unjury chocolate splendor + 2 tsp instant espresso powder + 1 shot Torani sugar free almond roca Syrup, mixed with milk - makes a delicious chilled amaretto mocha Protein Shake.< /li>

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
