Where do you get the nectar from? Online only?

I bought mine at a local supplement store, but it's not a chain.

I tried a lot of shakes out there and Premier Protein chocolate flavor from SAMs club is the only one that I liked. It tastes just like chocolate milk. I am still having 2-3 a day as I am not a bug near fan. Each shake has 30 grams Protein and 5 grams carbs.

I shoul have mentioned that they are only 18.88 for a 12 pack which is around $1.57 a shake. I have been in able to buy a prepaid shake for this much.

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. I tasted a bunch of these choices but ultimately I found one that FINALLY tasted good. GNC lean blended with ice.

Cookies and cream was delicious and I am looking forward to trying peppermint mocha tomorrow. It's a little higher in calories and carbs than Bariatric Advantage but I'll happily drink 3 of these per day instead of 4 of the other. I could barely get down 1-2 shakes per day.

Finishing up Day 3 of my Pre-Op Diet (11 more to go until surgery!)

My doctor's pre-op diet guidance is

[*]1 low-carb yogurt (I've been having fage 0% with a packet of truvia)

[*]1 cup of skim milk

[*]4 Protein shakes / day (1 of which I can have with sugar free pudding)

[*]Unlimited calorie free drinks + sugar free Jello + popsicles

[*]No caffeine' date=' carbonation

Caffeine headaches have finally subsided and I am rocking caffeine free living.

Unfortunately I hate my Protein Shakes. Hate them. Bariatric Advantage high Protein. Vomit. I feel like I've tried everything including mixing with pudding and nothing works.

I'm thinking about picking up a store brand shake (allowed as long as it has 20+ grams of protein, limited carbs and <150 calories) Any suggestions? I'm dying over here.[/quote']

Hi I just got banded on the 26 of November 2012. The best shake that works for me is the shakes you buy from True Results. They are good in flavor and good with the amount of weight the Dr wants you to use. It come with the drinking cup that you are taught to sip and not swallow. I was not banded by True Results! But I still go purchase there Protein Shake mix. It comes in different flavors.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
