There was another person on the site (I am sorry I don't remember who) that mentioned using sugar free torani syrups to kick up their protein shakes a notch. AWESOME IDEA!!

Here are a few places that are reasonable for purchasing them.

Torani Syrup, & Torani Sugar Free $4.95 per 750 ml bottle

Amazon has a sample pack of small bottles.

I might've suggested it. I already always used it in my drinks when I went to Starbucks before I had surgery, because of my diabetes issue. Then I discovered I could buy it at the grocery store. They only have five flavors available there, but there might be more. Mine are chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, caramel, and raspberry. And it is fun to mix 'em around!! It's totally revived my interest in Protein Shakes, which was badly flagging. I even started adding vanilla to the Syntrax nectar "Fuzzy Navel" flavor, and found out that was really amazing.

Another thing I re-discovered is egg flower Soup (like you get at Asian/Chinese restaurants). It tastes totally different from plain old broth, and I found some mixes for it (plain and hot & sour both) at the grocery store, as well, so it's dead-easy to make. It mixes really, really well with unflavored Syntrax protein supplement, as long as it's only warm, not hot. Turns it kind of creamy.

I'm really looking forward to starting the puree diet, though. I'm running out of clear liquids!

vitacost has free shipping right now on orders over $79. I love the Oh Yeah peanut butter/choc. Protein bars and I can't live without them. I also get my chewable calcium citrate there.

Netrition and vitacost are both great because their shipping is 4.99 no matter how much you order.

Free is even better though, and vitacost often does free shipping.

Too bad they don't carry the syrups, but they sure carry everything else!

I'd never heard of VitaCost before. I just ordered chewable calcium citrate there too. My regular ones are just too big to swallow whole, and frankly I'd been skimping on them a bit, which of course :001_smile:is bad news over time. This will make life a lot easier. Thank you for that information!

Yeah, vitacost is great. They will start sending you emails with all the sales now if you gave them your email address.

They have everything you can think of from Biotin shampoo, any type of Vitamin or supplement you can think of, cleaning products, face creams, the list goes on and on. Make sure you get a catalog.

I get my bsn lean dessert fudge pudding Protein shake there, and mix it with the banana cream pudding, as well as my Oh Yeah, peaunut butter chocolate Protein Bars . Yum Yum! BSN comes in all sorts of flavors and so do the oh yeah bars. 4.99 shipping no matter how much you order, although it's free shipping right now!

I just got my Vitacost chewable calcium citrate supplements over the weekend. They are SOOO much better than swallowing those horse pills I was taking before! They don't taste all that great, but I don't feel like I tried to swallow a baseball anymore, either. All around, it's a major improvement.

yeah, I am not really crazy about the taste, but they are not unbearable. I just drink some water after I chew a couple of them up. I finally read the bottle and it takes 2 to make up the 500 mg. You're supposed to take 500 mg 3 times a day , 2 hours apart.
