Has anyone out there used nectar Protein? If so what is your favorite flavor???

I need to order some tomorrow, I'm almost 6 weeks post op and started drinking chocolate Premier shakes 2 weeks before. I really need a variety. Please let me know your favorites... Thanks!!!!

I just bought some nectar - Roadside Lemonade and Nectar - Apple Ecstasy today and mixed them together with some frozen pineapple chucks and added 2 - Stevia liquid - Apricot Nectar drops it was great! I really do not like Protein Drinks, but I will be using this combination for a while.

To begin with, I will say I mix mine Water. I mix none with milk and I know that alters the flavor. Just some thing to keep in mind. ;)

Cappuccino. I like it. Mild coffee flavor, not heavy at all. Almost like a weak - flavored coffee candy

chocolate truffle - it's ok.

vanilla bean torte - it's ok. Tolerable

Cookies and cream - took awhile to drink. I'd be ok if I never had it again but didn't make me vomit. Probably Tate's better with milk.

Lemon tea (can't remember the exact name) - was actually ok with it. Change of pace.

strawberry - ok. Sure it's better with milk

Apple ecstasy - could not tolerate it all. Bleh

Fuzzy navel - nope. Not ever drinking it again

caribbean cooler - yuck.

I've pretty much had them all, I just can't think of them right now, lol. When I do, I'll come back and edit. :)

I mix with Water, coffee or tea. I tried samples of almost all the fruit flavors (got mine on Vitalady's site) and hated every one. I was surprised but my tastes have changed. I like vanilla, chocolate and Cappuccino, as well as the unflavored. I mix two scoops into 10-12 oz. of liquid and get my Protein boost in that way. I still don't like to eat Breakfast and I like to keep my Protein high (90+ grams a day) because I feel better with higher protein. I'm more than two years out and of all the many Proteins I've tried this is my favorite brand.

I like the nectar sweets the best. Cookies and creme is my go to shake every day now for months. I also like chocolate truffle mixed with PB2 to create a quasi Reece's flavor. I do not like much of the fruit flavors and absolutely cannot stand the fuzzy navel flavor. I was really a peach and banana flavor person pre surgery, but have a lot of issues tolerating these flavors post surgery in just about any form. It is interesting how our tastes change after surgery.

Thanks for the info guys, it should help with my flavor Choice and brands to try. I just need it for some variety, chocolate everyday for 2 months Is getting boring. I like to get 90 grams of Protein a day, time to mix it up!!!

I choked down the first couple that I made with Water. I saw that someone mixed the Fuzzy Navel with orange juice. Drinking one of those right now and am enjoying it.

I am sure the OJ is not preferred but I have only been getting in about 300 calories a day so I figured it was worth the calories to get the Protein. The sugar seemed to settle ok as well.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
