Favorite Nectar Flavors & Why?



Recommended Posts

I'm going to get the samples and want to know what your favorite samples are. I just need flavors for the clear phase ( a week,) so I am assuming using milk or anything besides Water no longer makes it a clear. So I would assume the latte one would taste bad with just water. Would 11 or 14 last me a week? Also how many ounces are in each sample, it doesn't say on the site. Thanks in advance.

Everyone is soooo different with their flavor prefs! But...I'm a fan of the kiwi strawberry (reminds me of a tropical fru fru drink :), Roadside Lemonade, caribbean cooler (though this one got old for me quick) because it tasted like a piña colada, and apple ecstasy. And the double stuffed cookie made with milk. Mmmmm

I did samples from bjs bariatrics (because you can pick your flavors to mix and try). Then once I knew what I wanted, I pick up at Vitamin shoppe or Amazon (which, ironically, last time shipped from Vitamin Shoppe anyway but slightly cheaper :)

If you go to the Syntrax site you can call and order all14 flavors of nectar for $14 and Syntrax covers shipping. I posted the number on another thread. I don't have access to the number right now.

I saw the response I just wanted to have an idea of flavors that I would want to get based on personal reviews. Unless they didn't allow a choice and gave the flavors they wanted to.

I love vanilla bean torte and chocolate truffle the best. I've used them for the entire time post op and still enjoy them. They mix well with juice, tea, coffee, Water, soymilk.

I'd say the double-stuffed cookie, latte Cappuccino and caribbean cooler are also pretty good. I don't typically care for fruity Protein shakes but I've tried the peach, orange, and pink grapefruit and think they're okay, I just couldn't drink them every day.

The only flavors I couldn't drink at all were Roadside Lemonade and the Twisted cherry. Others like them but I hated them.

I've only had chocolate truffle and vanilla bean but I like both. I also got unflavored so I could through it in yogurt, oatmeal, etc.

For fruity flavors I love Roadside Lemonade & Kiwi strawberry. If you get bored w/ the flavor of lemonaide you can always add crystal lite iced tea or strawberry Mio to alter the taste.

The Vanilla Torte and chocolate Truffle are awesome.

I love the vanilla with a bit of cooled coffee and a splash of Torani SF Syrup for an iced coffee. I love, love, love making a thick shake with the chocolate Truffle, some SF pudding, PB2 and NF milk. It tastes just like a shake gem Sonic and it packs a Protein punch!

You can buy singles of the vanilla and chocolate at a Vitamin Shoppe (use google to find a 20% off coupon).

I love the Twisted cherry and Roadside Lemonade. They're good mixed together as well. I also like the unflavored and mix it with milk.

I ordered mine from Amazon.com.< /p>

Oh yeah! I forgot to add that the ONLY unflavored Protein I would really recommend is the nectar one. It's almost completely tasteless with no funky smell and it blends in with no issue.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
