I first tried with the directions, yuck. I remembered a gal who did it with CL and I mixed with lemonade, still a yuck and later with Sunrise but I don't think it's the drink for me. Thanks though!

Hi! It's funny that you post this. I just got my Nectar in the mail (huge container, by the way!) and tried a shake according to the directions on the label. Yeeeeechhh! Tea with meat, like you said. Then, being the resourceful Diva that I am , I figured out that I'm trying to choke down two scoops of this stuff a day (and eight glasses of water)... so if I put a small amount with Crystal Light in each glass, I should get a nice non-meaty balance and still get all my protein in. Yeah, yeah, I could just buy a small pitcher and sip on it, but I'm not driving out to Wal Mart at 11pm! That's a task for another day! Anyway, just thought that might be a solution for you to help mask the "protein" taste. HTH! Tiffany 328/289/?

Thanks! Yes, I did the CL thing too but I still don't like it much. Ah well. I'm donating it all to my support group. I'm sure some gals will enjoy it. In the meantime I'm enjoying my Matrix and I'm trying to get protein in via what I eat. There's a milk in TX called Mootopia, it's skim with 14 g. of protein. I drink a few glasses a day. I eat cottage cheese daily and today's dinner was yummy broiled fi****hink that's working for me. Thanksagain.

I use Protidiet consentrates. It is nice because they dont have the bad smell that I find with some other drinks. I have the website of my profile. good luck! Meg

Gina: How long have you had the Rival machine? I went in search of one and found the reviews on that machine weren't very good. Have you had any problems with it? It's a great price !! and I love sno-cones. Might help me get my fluid in. Jean Lap RNY 5/24/05

Protidiet is the one I am ordering. I have seen some people rave abotu it here at obesityhelp and I ordered me 50.00 worth. They are usually 12.00 for a box of seven, but are on sale for 10.00 for a box of seven. I have not heard any negative reviews about them. Here is the link: http://www.i-shophere.biz/ I am taking a chance without testing first, but it has free shipping plus you get three free samples of other products. I have a good feeling about them Hope this helps!

I had my lap RNY on 5-23. My nutritionalist suggested, Beneprotein. You can order it from Walgreens.com. It is flavorless so you can mix it with everything. My protein shake is 4oz-8oz skim milk, 1 packet CIB (o sugars added, blue pkg) and 2 scoops Beneprotein. Gives me 22, 24 or 26 gms of protein depending on how many oz I make. I have been drinking 6 oz shakes for the past 4 days and it is going well. The 8 oz was too much for me. Dawn - Lap RnY - May 23
