I thought it was ku man too.... eesh.

It's said like coo-men. So the real question is, if DH ever tells you he's "coo men" - wtf do you do?

I can't stand marshmallows - raw, cooked or otherwise. And I'm not big on chocolate unless it's paired with Peanut Butter. Probably no surprise I've never had a smore. :(

If you put a peep in the microwave, you'll get like a six foot peep.

cumin is more or less pronounced as come in, but stressed on the first syllable. Pronunciation: KUH-min, some easterners have been known to pronounce it at KOO-min

The pronunciation for cumin that’s most prevalent in this country, and the one recognized by the American Spice Trade Association, is "kuhmin," not "kewmin" as is sometimes heard.

How crazy is this - I'm just nerdy enough to look it up on the dictionary and both pronunciations are right. I wonder if it's a north/south thing.

maybe a pohtaytoe pahtaytoe thing. Wasn't there a link thread for a "how southern are you?" for a web quiz? That had all different types of pronunciations. I have heard both cumins too, but I was nerdy too and went to the American Spice Trade Association for what they recognize it as. Who knew there was that association anyways?

There is a thread on here that just greeted me this morning and made me fume. It wasn't caused just by the person who posted the vicious attack but by the moderator who allowed the post to remain there and not delete it. Just locking it is not a sufficient remedy. A thread that so blatantly attacks a person as the "I'm Guilty" thread should have been deleted.

I personally am very proud to call PhotoNut my friend. She has been a great encouragement to me along with a lot of other people on here. She has always been here for me, and it hurt to see her attacked in what I considered a vile way by someone I have no respect for after reading this.

How low is this thing going to sink? You know Alexandra, the thread should have been deleted. You are allowing Susan to read this and not be able to respond. You know it will hurt her horribly. What if someone posted something cruel to a moderator...would you let it stand. Now if Susan trys to defend herself in another thread you will get on her case and lock it.

Alexandra, a good moderator would delete the "I'm Guilty" thread immediately and not just lock it. I would like to hear others opinions on this, or am I going to find this thread locked to responses to?

I'm furious with this person who attacked PhotoNut. She should be ashamed of herself.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
