What size was the nectar that you purchased. I'm a newbie and still researching products:). I found the Nectar Protein for $32.99 at www.vitacost.com. Have you tasted anymore flavors? Does it mix well (expecially On The Go)?

The Syntrax Nectar Roadside Lemonade was my saving grace too! I couldn't stomach the "milky" shakes. I added a packet of Crystal Light lemonade to give it an extra punch of flavor. Drink it over ice too. I also add the Syntrax Lemonade to plain Fage yogurt. It kind of tastes like a lemon cheesecake filling or custard. Yum.

I ordered a sample pack of the nectar flavors from the company. My favorite so far is the fuzzy navel. I mixed it with peach,orange, mango and pineapple juice and Water. So yummy... Also the lemonade with water and throw a few frozen strawberries in the blender. Crystal sky is ehh ok... caribbean cooler was ok. Very coconutty. Again mixed that with pineapple juice and water.

http://bjsbariatrics.com, you can pick 11 samples for $14.99, and with shipping it comes just under $20, unless you choose a different shipping option. I've ordered 3x with them and gotten it with a few days, with the regular first class shipping. I have tried some and have some definite favorites, just haven't pulled the trigger on committing to a actual tub, but I've narrowed it down, good luck!

Just checked them out they do have some different samples, which is cool, but as far the syntax nectar, which is what I've been buying, it's more expensive and you get 1 less packet than with bj bariatrics website. But it's cool that everyone gets there samples from different places.

I think the grapefruit flavor of nectar is even better than the lemonade. You might give it a try.

I don't know if there are any left but Vitamin Shoppe store (not online) had the Roadside Lemonade on clearance for $19.98! I was told it was until they sold out, as they were being discontinued. I don't know if that part is true. I also enjoyed the lemonade!

I love, love, love the Roadside Lemonade! The Fuzzy Navel is pretty good, too.

You can get a sample pack of 10 at bariatricpantry.com and you can choose your flavors. It's a nice change from the chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ones, that's for sure!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
