I tried the fuzzy navel and kiwi strawberry. I liked the fuzzy navel with the recommended amount of Water .

I had to really water down the strawberry kiwi, it was a bit strong with an after taste. Tomorrow I'm trying the cherry flavor.

Ok awesome I have ordered the fuzzy naval because I read a bunch of good reviews about it. I wanted to order two kinds but the reviews were all so mixed on the others I didn't know what to do. You will have to let me know about the cherry! I will be having VSG surgery on 11/3 and I heard taste can change so we shall see.

I've tried a few of them. Roadside Lemonade, Grape, and caribbean cooler weren't bad. I really liked the strawberry Mousse mixed in milk. I also liked the Crystal Sky in ice Water. I have noticed that they don't dissolve well in ice water, so I use room temp/tap mix it well and then add ice after it's dissolved. I like to use a shaker bottle because the Protein tends to settle a bit as it sits, so I shake again as needed.

I have only tried the fuzzy naval and I really liked it. Check out Nashua Nutrition website and you can order samples of every flavor of Syntrax Nectar along with samples of almost everything they sell. Samples are around $1.95 each and I ordered 2-3 samples of many, many flavors to check out post op. I don't want to try them out until after surgery since my tastes can change. No sense in wasting a perfectly good sample now when I may or may not like it after surgery when I will need them the most.

Ok thank you for the advice on how to mix it! I really debated on the crystal sky. I also heard the Cappuccino was really good but if I can't have the real coffee I will pass for now

@@Larly109 sorry I responded to you above but I'm not sure I did it right this is my first time on here, I also just wanted to tell you I watched a YouTube video of a lady making the blue sky drink and she added some sugar free banana Syrup to it.

Elode- I was excited to try out the Protein Shake samples also. That is how I found I like the fuzzy naval one! I am a very frugal person so I had a serious conversation with myself. That was the only way I could restrain myself from trying more of the flavors. ;) make sure you sign up for the Nashua Nutrition email newsletter. Every few weeks they offer free shipping on orders of $49 or more. I waited until the free shipping offer and then ordered $50 worth of samples. The sample packs will also come in handy when I travel. They definitely won't go to waste. Definitely share any great Protein powders you find too. I am always looking for something new to try. Good luck!

@@Luvin_Life125 Ha! Ok I will defiantly share when I find a good one ! So far I've had the Premier Protein (I really like it in chocolate) and I've tried the Isopure ready-read drinks. They are not wonderful but with 40 grams of Protein a bottle I hope I can stomach them after surgery. I bought my fuzzy naval tub from vitacost . They gave me a10 off coupon for signing up for the emails so I only paid $27 for the tub. I also needed To buy Vitamins so I just ordered it all together. The prices are really good.

I got a pack of 12 samples from bariatricpal.com. I've only tried the lemonade and cherry so far and both are pretty good. It mixes well also.

I buy the Syntrax Protein individual samples too. I get mine at the Vitamin Shoppe. They guy there is the one that turned me on to Syntrax Protein. I like the vanilla Bean Torte along with others people have mentioned. The difference is I mix mine with unsweetened Soy Milk. I tried the Water & I just didn't like the flavor as much. I don't like water anyway so I've had an issue with getting in enough of it each day. Thank goodness the Protein Drinks count towards the 64 ozs. I use a Ninja to mix my drinks.< /p>

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
