Protein Powders ?



Recommended Posts

Do most of you use the flavored or unflavored Protein powders and if so do you have favorites?

Syntrax Nectars powder. I like the Cappuccino flavor the best. I also like the Lemonaide, Fuzzy Navel, Crystal Sky, and strawberry Kiwi. I like that they taste good mixed with Water, and that they mix very easily with just a spoon... and don't clump.

I like the Syntrax Nectars for flavored and Isopure whey 0 carb for my unflavored. I usually flavor it with frozen strawberries or unsweetened cocoa (with splenda) or even some sugar-free syrups. I really like the Syntrax flavors I've tried.

I like Syntrax Nectar sweets (Chocolate Truffle & Cappuccino in particular). Unjury chocolate Splendor, Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Double Rich Chocolate. My absolute favorite is Chike Iced coffee. I mix with either unsweetened cashew milk or (for a treat) almond milk hint-of-honey vanilla. I tend to use lots of mix-ins like instant coffee, SF hazelnut Syrup, SF cinnamon vanilla syrup, etc.

Wow I just looked at the Syntrax website and they are EXPENSIVE. Mainly because I hate to spend so much before I know I will like it. Does anyone know where you can get test packs?

You can contact syntrex and they'll send you a sample pack for about $15. I didn't like any of the flavored besides Cappuccino. I use an unflavored Protein that mixes well and I got it from Amazon for only $21. I put it in whatever crystal lite I'm drinking and that way I get both my fluids and my protein in!

They will sell you a sample pack for around $20 if you phone the company. I scoffed when I first heard that, but the woman I spoke to was super friendly and helpful. I particularly wanted to try the fruit flavored powders in the hopes I will have more options when the time comes. I really like them. I don't remember the exact nutritional count, but they have 25-30g Protein and 0 carbs. The chocolate truffle is 100 calories if I remember correctly.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
