Bariatric Advantage Nectar Protein



Recommended Posts

Hi ! Has anyone had the Bariatric nectar Protein shakes ? How do they taste? Is there a recommended flavor. Wish they sold separate packets to try. I heard after surgery your taste buds may change not possibly wanting the regular Protein Shakes so thought I might look into trying the nectar. Any feedback would be awesome ! Thanks !

I could stand my chocolate flavors after surgery. I'm a week out. It's getting better. I tried the fuzzy navel with nonfat milk and ice and found it refreshing. People typically like them around here...

Thanks MisforMimi I'm doing the Premier vanilla and chocolate. I will probably get the Bariatric Advantage shakes too. I liked the vanilla didn't like the iced lattee. Still have to try Choclate and Orange Creme. I bought a couple different flavor packets to try out. Best of luck with your recovery.

Fuzzy navel with skim milk is really, REALLY good. I know it is a strong word, but I HATE Protein shakes, LOL. nectar is by far my favorite, but I have only had the fuzzy navel flavor. I have samples of the lemonade and Carribean cooler that I will probably try over the next few days. There is almost NO whey taste. I can smell it, but nearly as much as with other brands.

My surgeons office/nutritionist sells sample packs with lots of flavors, so there must be a way of getting individual packets. I've tried three or four flavors--Today's was Carribean Cooler, which was super coconutty. Can't say I'm crazy about any of them, but YMMV.

Www.si03.com. Syntrax Nectar, I bought samples there, it was a package of 10 or 12 different ones. You really have to look for it though, NOT an easy website to navigate.

I like the flavor of the Bariatric Advantage stuff but the texture of the Quest shakes is better to me. I'm wondering which one I'll tolerate better after surgery? I really have issues with texture (my whole life) like I love tomatoes taste but can't eat raw tomatoes.

I tried the nectar sample pack and fell in love with the Twisted cherry flavor. I add a scoop on the powder to 20 oz of Water plus 1 packet of sugar free kool aid.. = Protein packed yummy juice!

Thanks Bayla1212! I just ordered thru bariatric pantry. You can also order a one time variety pack through Syntrax (Co that produces it) for $14 plus 1.99 shipping but it's on back order about three weeks ...I need it quicker since my surgery is in a 1 1/2 weeks.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
