Dr. John Bagnato - Good Protein Drink



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone:

I can not beleive i am saying this, but i actually found a protien drink that i like. Most of the ones that i have tried have tasted like booty.

okay, i don't know what booty tastes like..but I am assuming that if booty had a flavor then protien drinks would be a good representation of the taste. ICK :smile:!!!

Anyway, i bought nectar in the Fuzzy Navel flavor by Syntrax. It is actually good. Like some people recommended, i mix it with crystal light peach tea and it tastes like the peach tea or like an orange drink (not orange jouce). I can actually see myself drinking it. I actually have been drinking it.

Now the thing is that if you order it you will get a trough of it. it comes in a 2lb container. The pictures online make it look small, but that thing is HUGE.

Now again, this is what *I* can tolerate. I have wasted so much money on Protein drinks. I have every intention of drinking them or in most cases forcing myself to drink them, but I usually ended up throwing them away becasue they taste so NASTY. But I have actually been drinking Fuzzy Navel.

If you decide to order it, I would recommend mixing it with 16 ounces of Water. Mix the Water and crystal light first. Don't put in ice old water or it does not mix as well. Then add your nectar and then your ice. Each scoop gives you 23g of Protein in the form of whey isolate.

I have a trough of the stuff. If anyone wants to get a sample of it, let me know. I live in Albany, but I am harldy home becasue of my funky work schedule. Let me know and we can figure out a way for you to get your sample. You will just have to buy your own crystal light peach tea. Just let me know if anyone wants to try it.

No, i am not a rep for Nectar. i am just excited as all get out that I, miss hater of ALL Protein Drinks, found one that I like.

Have you tried Pro-cal 100 shakes? The strawberry is my favorite, they are very filling and stick with you for quite a while. The price isn't too bad either. You might want to give them a try. Good luck!:girl_hug:

I went in search of Protein drinks recently and it confused the hell out of me. Those huge caniseters look pretty intimidating. I ended up buying the EAS carb control ones. You can buy the powder, but I like buying the premixed 4 pack since I'm lazy...lol. These have 17g and the vanilla isn't bad at all.

I'm pretty proud...between the Protein Drink and a south beach diet Cereal bar, I've got 27g of Protein down before 10 am! That has to be a record for me.

      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.
