Got My Sample Pack Of Syntrax Nectar



Recommended Posts

I also have the personal blender with the cup from Oster. I have one for work and one for home. They come in cool colors (green, blue, orange). I let it run for at least a minute and it makes a slushie. I use the plastic straws that go with the insulated cups with lids and they are yummy. Syntrex necter is the best!

Yea it works pretty good for the price! I always have a few little pieces of Ice but just a few so no big deal.

i have tried 3 different Syntrax nectar and neither mixed very well, not even in my personal blender. i had lemonade for lunch today and could not finish it because of the lumps....DISGUSTING!!! i even put my cup back on the blender and blended some more...still had lumps. i used cold bottled Water. any tips? has anyone else had this problem?

i tried the lemonade today as well. the face i made was just like the one i get when I drink vodka....that one is a no go.

I just placed an order for 2 of the nectar sample packs. Hopefully I will like some of the flavors, I am not big on most fruit flavored shakes. I am hoping the cappuccino is good so it can replace my coffee.< /p>

I need to order the Unjury chicken and unflavored, Have Protein for the clear diet, I have two weeks of that after surgery. Have any of you tried those yet? How long does it take to receive the shipment?

I hope you are able to stomach the Unjury better than I. I tried only the chicken and the vanillia, Both were bad enough to gag a maggot in my opinion and way more went down the drain than down my throat.

After two years, I still start almost every day with a Protein coffee or tea mixed with vanilla bean torte or chocolate truffle from Syntrax nectar. I use a shaker cup and the only time I have lumps is when my liquid is too cold. It mixes great with hot, warm, room temp or cool liquids - not icy cold ones.

I have an entire sample pack of the About Time shakes and I hate them. I was excited at first because of the healthier ingredients but I find the taste lacking.

I am not a fan of the fruity shakes - not even the nectar ones.

Keep trying things until you like them! I changed "favorite" Protein Shakes about four times since surgery, but the one constant are the Nectars. I love them, even mixed with Water or homemade unsweetened soy milk.

Oh, and a shaker cup will keep the foam down more than blending, so try that if you want to avoid the foam.

Good luck!

Oh that's cool that will keep the foam down! I've noticed it has too much or a head on it when blended, I don't care for that myself either.

Thanks for the tip!

Thanks, I will keep your tips on my list. I am afraid of the Protein Drinks but I hope to find one that is tolerable ;)

Is the nectar suppose to be like a juice or a milk like shake? I'm on one of the websites right now and if you mix it with milk it wouldnt be a clear anymore, correct? Im looking for Protein mixes just for the first week of clears. Which flavors would you recommend for the clear stage? I am assuming it would be the flavors that are best with Water. Also, I was told that if you called syntax you could get 14 samples for 14.00 no shipping. I haven't called yet, but thats still cheaper at the other website.

BJs Bariatrics and those sample packs saved me a lot of money. Now I know which ones I like and don't like. The Lemonade Flavor = gag!

I like the chocolate About Time powder but the vanilla tastes pretty bad. I bought a bunch of Torani syrups to give them different flavors. The Syntrax Nectar line is pretty darn yummy. Keep in mind that the fruit flavored ones aren't clear. They have a milky appearance that can be off putting.

I bought 10 sample sizes of several flavors from vitalady.com. The packets each have 28-30gms Protein. So far the chocolate fudge is my fav. I am trying out shakes for pre & post uses.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
