Yes, I just ordered some samples of Nectur. I'm hoping they taste decent.
I've been searching for a good protein drink for the past three months. I
heard they are good...so we shall see.

Hi, I'm pre-op too, and just last week ordered the Very Berry flavor of
Nectar. It is excellent - no protein whey aftertaste. It mixes easily in
water and tastes real good. Plus it gives you a good dose of protein
without carbs or fat. Here's the website where you can get it in case you
don't have it: http://www.wlssuccess.com/ Best Wishes!

I just got my order of Nectar yesterday!! I LOVE the Very Cherry Berry. I
ordered just a sample of the Carribean Cooler,it is not that good.I have
not tried the Apple. Ask your Dr. when he wants you to start protein. I
think you could atart it as soon as your on a full liquid diet.

I am pre-op and just beginning my search for protein supplements. Went to
GNC over the weekend and all they had were LARGE jugs of powder and when I
told him that I was having WLS and was looking for a protein that I would
like or could tolerate and would prefer a SMALL amount of the powder to see
if I liked it, he told me that GNC has a 30-day money back guarantee. If I
keep my receipt and try the powder but do not like it at all, I can return
the powder and either get my money back or try something else. The pattern
continues...if I don't like the new powder or whatever I purchase, I can
also return it and try again. Hope this helps!

I love wlssuccess.com. I order all my protein there because I can order a
sample first of anything new. The nectar protein is great in the caribean
cooler. I mix it with a 1/2 cup of orange juice and some ice and I have a
"pina colada" smoothie for breakfast.

I just want to add a little comment here, okay 2 comments. First,
everyone's taste is different, what one likes another might hate. Second,
your tastes may change after surgery, mine did. I loved Adkins advantage
shakes before surgery, now I can't stand them. Can't even get it to my
lips. So, my advice is.. DO NOT stock up on too much until after the
surgery to make sure you really do like it. :-) LAP RNY 5/15/03 down 28 lbs

Now, I think the Nectar Caribbean Cooler is great. I'm midway through my
first 2# canister. I've got one on order from
http://www.vitaminshoppe.com and while I was at the Rios Nutrition place in
Morton, PA, I found that they sell the Nectar protein there. So I'm all
set with Nectar Caribbean Cooler for the next 3 months *G*...JR

Everyone's tates are so different. For example, I absolutely HATED the
carribean cooler Nectar stuff. It was vile. I do like this stuff called
Ultra Pure Protein by Met RX. It comes in ready to drink cans, in several
flavors. I like the cappuccino so far (it's all I've tried). Each drink
provides 100% calcium, 35g protein, 2 g sugar (3g carbs total) and 170
cals. You can get it online cheaper than at GNC.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Apple Ecstasy Nectar! Unfortunately, most places are
out of it right now. I've been searching for it for about a month now.

ACTUALL VERY GOOD 55GMS PROTEIN PER SERVING & COMES IN DIFFERENT
