So, in my OCD attempt to make sure I'm prepared for surgery (just about 5 weeks away!!) I ordered some Protein powder samples on Sunday. I ordered three sample packs based on a thread in the food & Nutrition forum.

First, I ordered powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. I am most looking forward to trying this one, especially the unflavored and chicken Soup flavors.

I also ordered Chike and Syntrax nectar. I wasn't particularly looking for the best deals, just knew what I wanted and was hoping to get them relatively soon.

I received a follow up phone call from Chike within 24 hours, just letting me know my order had been shipped and a thank you for ordering. It was nice to see good customer service offered.

Today, I received both the Unjury and Syntrax Nectar via UPS. I'm so impressed with the Unjury! It was well packaged and included a shaker bottle and a thermometer, to test Water temps (water used to mix protein can't exceed 140 degrees or it will clump). It also included some ideas for using each type, including the unflavored.

I am going to hold off actually taste testing until my pre-op diet. I don't want to get sick of it before it's all I can have.

Anyone else pre-op sampled protein powders yet?

Chike is good. That's got to be my favorite at this point. The unjury chocolate is good as hot chocolate. I didn't care for the strawberry sorbet. Syntrax Nectar is good too. I got several sample packets from BJ's Bariatrics and while I don't like the smell, the flavor is good.

Where did you order from?

Where did you order from?

I ordered the unjury and Chike right from the manufacturers' websites.

The Syntrax Nector I ordered from BestPriceNutrition.com. That one, in particular, I probably could have gotten a better price on if I had tried but I didn't want to call to order (I hate talking on the phone unless it's an absolute necessity).
