ooooh excited. I've only tried the chocolate, fuzzy navel, and the vanilla. Are any of the other flavors good? like the strawberry and caribbean cooler?

These fruity flavors sound great for summer, can they be made into iced tea coolers, or can they only be shakes?

I've heard the Cooler tastes like a piña colada- heavier on the coconut than the pineapple. I'm just starting to try out shake flavors since I'm pre-sleeve. I also want to try the sour apple and pink grapefruit flavors- sour apple is supposed to taste like a watered down apple jolly rancher and the grapefruit tastes really close to real grapefruit juice. Yum!

I just ordered a sample pack from BJ's- which flavors do you make with Water and which with milk?

The caribbean cooler does taste like piña colada; it's probably my favorite of the fruity flavors. I have a hard time with artificial grape flavor in most foods, so I'm looking forward to reviews on that one! Overall, I seem to lean toward the Syntrax "sweets" flavors (vanilla creme, double stuffed cookie) rather than the fruits. For some reason, the fruit flavors have a taste that my tastebuds read as very similar to liquid penicillin from my childhood. Urgh. Maybe that will change once I'm post-op, though.

I have made the fruit flavored ones with Water, and I use either water or 1% milk in the double-stuffed cookie and vanilla creme ones. Usually I go with water to save calories since I'm pre-op. Post-op, using milk to raise the Protein level might be better for me; we'll see!

I tried their vanilla bean yesterday - good, tasted a little like melted vanilla ice cream, and it tasted even better when I added Davinci SF root beer Syrup. Root beer float baby! I can see all the possible combos- blueberry pie a mode, strawberry float, purple cow, etc. I think this is my "I'm craving a dessert" shake base. :).

How much syrup do you use for something like that?

I LOVE EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID. bow.gif

Also--their chocolate truffle is wonderful with a bit of PB2 powder added to it for extra Protein. Peanut Butter + chocolate = yum!

I've had the grape. It tastes like super sweet grape kool-aid to me. It was too much for me, but I don't love fruity drinks anyway. I think the Crystal Sky was good. It was fruity but light.

im a little sad. I tried the Roadside Lemonade, added about 12 oz of Water and shoke it. it was a frothy stinky mess. I am not sure I can bring myself to try the others. What went wrong, so many love lemonde.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
