Has anyone tried nectar Protein? I've heard really good things and after choking down Premier Protein over the weekend.....I need to find something different. Any advice will help!! I start my Pre-op diet on 12/4 for my 12/18 surgery!!

I've tried it and I like it. It is a refreshing change from those pesky Protein shakes! For me it is kind of like drinking a Vitamin Water. I like the peach and fruit punch flavors.

Bariatric Advantage offers a nice variety of flavors...and Unjury is available unflavored...so it can be added to literally, anything you decide to eat or drink =)

I tried their sample pack and the only one I liked was the cappuccino! My coworker ordered the Now unflavored 100% pure isolate from Amazon and just tried it in her Crystal Lite and it had no flavor at all, so I think that's what I'm going to try next!

I ordered this sample pack: http://www.si03.com/EMAIL/nectar_gng_sampler/nectarsampler.html

I liked quite a few of their flavors. This is the best deal if you want to try a bunch without investing in a lot of any one kind first. I also had the Bariatric Advantage Orange Cream and banana. They were both good. I actually have some Isopure fruit Punch you can have, if you would like to try. I liked it but the massive jug they sell at Vitamin Shoppe was too big. Did you ever get your date scheduled? Hope you got that day you hoped for. I read good.

Thanks @dlappjr!! I got the chocolate Truffle and I'm going to try some with some milk tonight. I'm so excited that my date is finally set!

      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.
