Default I got some Free Samples

Someone a few weeks ago had posted that they went to a web site and asked for samples of thier products to try. Well, today in the mail I received:

(2) Matrix 5.o Cookies & Cream

(2) Nectar Chocolate Truffle

(2) Nectar Strawberry Kiwi

Each sample is a half serving and has 12g protein.

Here is how i got them.

Go to SI03 INC. web site and where it asks for comments, I just stated that I would be having bariatric surgery and wish to receive free samples of thier products to try. Include your name and address.

Very Clever! We have wasted so much "stuff" because you often have to buy a large quantity. Luckily for us there are two GBS patients in the house, so if one of us doesn't like it, the other often does.

Thanks for the tip. I want to try samples of products because I can't stand the taste of protein drinks. I appreciate the info.

I signed up for these too Vicki, and just got them in the mail today. I tried the Matrix Cookies & Cream already, and OMG, it's good! It has actual little bits of cookies in it. Yummy!

That's awesome. It must be a lot easier to stay on track with someone there to do it all with you. My hubby is 6'3" and 143 lbs. He's my garbage disposal. His plate always has 3x more food than mine, and he still finishes my leftovers. I just hate his skinny ass sometimes. ROTFL! When I'm jogging, he's walking beside me eating a snickers so he doesn't lose weight. LOL
