@@Stevehud I have never tried matrix because I don't like powdered Protein generally. I am using up some vanilla bean syntax in my experiment. Where do you buy matrix and is it also uber low carb?

the matrix is very very low carb but not carb free it has 6 grams of carbs per scoop/serving.

second try didn't taste much better, but very Syntrax nectar powder is low cal, low carb but was never filling to me as a drink (well, not since I was a baby sleever!). as a cupcake, it is filling so I found a way to use it up. Maybe after that i will buy a different brand to see if the flavor improves any....

you really have to try the matrix, i think it works much better because of the fact is is a timed release Protein and has some egg albumen in the powder i think that egg is what adds the flavor. i highly recommend the Cookies and creme. what i would do if you have a Vitamin shoppe near you they have it regularly for like 22 to 24 bucks for a two pound tub, get it, and if you dont like it bring it back, the Vitamin Shoppe always takes the stuff back and lets you exchange it for something youll use. i did that when i tried the Syntrax Nectar double stuffed cookie instead of matrix Cookies and creme and it turned to a brick... i contacted Syntrax and they said it was due to the formula being so different.

OMG! Just tried this exact recipe and it was AWESOME!

I don't use non dairy Creamer so I used fairlife milk and a splash of half and half. With the mint cookie Syntrax.

Wow!!! I'm totally abandoning my other Mug Cake recipe for this bc it's so simple.

I did it in a little glass ramekin I have. Now I want a splash of SF whip cream to go with it next time post-194772-14529059517287_thumb.jpg

Thanks!

I haven't had my surgery yet, but came upon this posting and these Protein cakes sound wonderful. Thanks so much for posting them. However I have a question

How many months out from your surgeries were you when you started eating these? Also my Dr tells me no snacking is allowed yet I am reading (maybe not in this post but others) that most folks can't get enough Protein without snacking. Are you all doing a lot of snacking or is this a meal for you?

During weight loss phase I ate 4-5 mini meals...no "snacking" but ate Protein and ideally veggies every 3 hours

So I just made my pumpkin spice Mug Cake delicious!! One other psoter mentioned she used sugar free pudding mix so I put in a little of that, I use Syntrax Nectar Protein powders which are delicious, baking powder, 1/4 cup canned pumpkin, lots of spices and I use coconut milk to moisten. The pudding mix made it much softer that making a cake without it. Will definitely use it again.

I went to my nearest Vitamin shoppe and they said the Cookies and cream is being phased out. they had chocolate and vanilla...

I looked for other brands with that similar ingredient - the egg, the slow and fast release but decided to buy the chocolate matrix.

I had it for lunch and it tasted WAY better than the first two tries, but I think I want to get some P2B or something. The most incredible thing is how filing these are!! Way more than the thin Syntrax nectar which always leaves me hungry.

Even after all these years - many new tricks to learn. Thank you SteveHud and others. I am traveling to Mexico, did not want to check bags and so can't take my liquid premier protien and now I have a viable alternative!

Doesn't microwaving the Protein and heating it kill the protein? Like most high quality Proteins are processed at low heat to keep the protein integrity.

so i have contact my contact, lol at Syntrax, si03 to be exact, to confirm that the Cookies and creme flavor is being phased out. I will post the answer for all to see when i have it. if its true im picking up a few 5lb bags immediately. I will buy the Peanut Butter very soon as well, if its as good as the mint cookie and the cookies and creme and the chocolate then i cant wait for it. im still leary about the banana though although if it works it would be like banana bread pudding kind of thing, which would rock. Im going to make a making the mugcake video tomorrow morning and I will post it right after.

      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!!
