OK so far the only Syntrax Nectar I've found that does NOT make me sick is the Fuzzy Navel.

I'm starting to think that finding a protein drink is going to be nigh impossible...

I have never tried it, but Unjury makes an unflavored protein that you are supposed to be able to mix with anythng (except hot stuff). Just in case this might be helpful.

I don't believe I have ever seen it there. I think it is online only. When I went to my pre-surgery seminar with Sloane, she gave out a sample. I don't know if she still does that. I had tried the Strawberry one, which I mixed in with skim milk and made a smoothie. My taste buds are pretty tolerant and it was OK to me.

Nessa, I haven't been around too much lately, so excuse me if you've already mentioned it, but...Have you tried EAS Carb Advantage shakes?  I use them right after I work out (17g of protein, 0 sugars) and also use them to make iced coffee.  I think Tia uses them in her coffee too.  They come in 4-packs and you can get them just about anywhere.  I usually purchase mine at Target.  I use both vanilla and chocolate.  I think they have strawberry too, but I haven't see it around here.

It's not how fast you go, but that you're moving in the right direction!

Hi Terri,

thanks for answering.

I've seen them  the ones in the Silver box?

I don't care for the taste of those as much as atkins and slim fast both of which are fine pre op and when I can go to thicker liquids.

i'm looking for stuff for the first week or so right now... I usually have a cast iron stomach so this is a new thing for me.

hey Nessa

here's what I use: http://www.globalhp.com/Procel.html this only gives you 5 gm of protein per tbsp so it's for when you are able to eat enough BUT it is tasteless! I'll bring my container to lunch next thursday so you can try it. Only $10  a box from their website and shipping is free if you order enough.

I also use their liquid protein. If you want I can bring that too. 16 gms per ounce. I used to take 2 oz every morning when starting out and it would help a lot in getting the required amount in.
