I love the bullets by New Whey.  I couldn't stomach the orange and fruit punch.  But I love the grape and blue rasberry.  I pour them into a 20oz bottle of water and sip on it all morning.

Oohhh, that's a good idea! I didn't think to try diluting it or adding it to a bottle of water ... I tried a couple of them, but I think I still have one left - green apple, if I'm not mistaken ... The orange was NASTY! I drank about half of it and I threw the rest away when, about a week later, I hadn't been able to stomach the thought of finishing it. The other ones (fruit punch and grape, I think) were sickeningly sweet and barely tolerable. I don't think I'd buy them again but maybe if I mix this last one with water, it won't go to waste!

I tried the new-whey ones. And well i throw it up as i was swallowing it. It made me soo sick i started to foam at the mouth.

But YOU can be different and enjoy them. Just dont go out and buy a bunch try one or two and then buy in bulk.

Good luck...

You must have smelled them. They smell pretty bad IMO.

My favorites are blueberry and fruit punch but I accidentally bought a case of fruit punch and grape.

We will share a surgery sisterhood, Dalis..my WLS is on the 20th.  I haven't gotten any of the bullets yet, but i did buy the sample packets of protein shakes from BE.  I have one every morning, as though I'm in training..lol  I will try the bullets from the Vitamin shoppe when I find one near me.
Best wishes and best of luck next week!

There should be a Vitamin Shoppe in the North Fontana area in one of those shopping centers.  I am almost positive I had seen one when up in that area.  I want to say maybe in the one off of Summit and the 15.  Check it out, and let me know if you can't find one.

They are ok...They do the job because it allows you to sip sip and sip them while getting the protein you need.  Just keep in mind that we don't aborb all the protein we drink.

Hey Dalis-
    I am only one week out and I have been trying the bullets but definatly water it down.  I have tried the grape, fruit puch, orange and blue rasberry.  They were all OK nothing great but I sipped it thru the day.  One day I even added a little bit of crystal light to the orange to change the flavor a bit.  Don't think that you are going to hit your protien or water goals at first, yesterday was first day I got in 20oz of my bulle****er and a 32oz water and it took effort thru the day.  I have also been adding unflavored protien powder to my SF Jello to get more protien but I can only eat a couple of small bites.  Right now it is about healing and learning my pouch.  I can really feel if I take too big of a sip of water so I am learning SMALL
sips all the time. 
Best of luck to you next week and enjoy the ride.

Hold your nose and down the hatch!  I use them when I get to the end of the day and don't have all my protein in.  I prefer ISOPURE (got them at GNC) 40g and 20 oz liquid.  I'm not much of a fruit person so I prefer to double my whey protein powder in my jayrobb.com shake.  That gives me 50g of protein and tastes a LOT better. lol

It's normal to freak a bit :-)
