Nectar Protein Mix



Recommended Posts

So I was SOOO excited to receive my sample packets of my nectar, so on Saturday I laid them out, picked the Wild Grape, opened the packet to mix in my jug and I mixed and mixed and still couldn't get the lumps out completely. So after getting most of them out I poured some in a glass and took a taste, it was horrible! I couldn't get passed the powdery, thick consistency.

Does anyone have any suggestions, I really want to like them.

I had the same problem with Protein shake powder. I tried to mix it by hand. I finally bought a Ninja electric blender with a single serving cup and that made the shakes palitable.

A Blender Bottle works well too, stirring has never worked for me regardless of the Protein Powder.< /p>

I have always used a blender because i would add ice to make it a bit thicker

I agree blender work best for shakes. The blender also allows you to add things like Greek yogurt or fruit.

A blender or Blender Bottle will help with the lumps. I also like to add ice to make them frothy. I usually add more Water than is recommended, too. Depending on what stage you're in, that may not be the best option, but if I Water down the fruity flavors enough, it tastes like drinking crystal light or something.

All that said, keep trying different flavors. I didn't like the grape either, but the fruit Punch and Fuzzy Navel ones are two of my all-time favorites!

Thanks everyone for your suggestions, looks like maybe a blender with some ice might be the answer to my "dilemma".

      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!
