Syntrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate, Powder, Lemon Tea
Yea Deidra :-) I'm glad you like it. Yes, I shake it after every sip to keep it mixed because that is a problem, but considering the alternatives it's definately good. I'll have to try the splenda with it. That sounds good. FYI about the Atkins shakes. That's what I was going to use because I used them before surgery but the hospital and nutritionist were adamant about me not drinking Atkins.
They said it's not the type of protein we need. We need Whey Protein because it's pure and it's exactly the type that our bodies need right now since it's not getting an adequate amount from the foods we eat.
Someone else suggested Nectar Cappacino. He said his wife loves it. I'm going to try that next.

I've talked to my surgeon about the Atkins drinks and his exact words were "As long as you are getting your protein in, I don't care how it gets there." I have the whey protein I add to my soups and stuff, but right now there are times when I just want a drink and it helps with that. I'm not using just Atkins for the source of my protein and I can see where it would be a huge problem if that was my ONLY source. So, I allow myself one a day, usually at breakfast to get me going and then I'm up and running the rest of the day with the whey.
So far...so good. If they tell me there is a problem in the future, then I'll switch up, but until then...I'm staying put....LOL.
The cappucino does sound good though. I may try that one next pay day!

Okay, we bought this stuff last night while I we purchased some of the RTD Atkins Advantage (which are soooooo good!). I made a glass of it last night and the only issue I have with it is getting over that initial smell/taste of powder with every sip...lol. I did add one packet of splenda to it and after that had NO problem at all drinking it. It did taste like a sweet lemon tea...even my husband said it wasn't bad...lol.
I'll eventually get around to trying other flavors, but for now...just one thing at a time is fine by me!
