btw Yoda, went last night and got some orange extract, some almond extract and some lemon. Tried the orange this a.m., and it did make a difference. Marie at dr. c's told me to blend it more also. it expanded and expanded, until it was kind of fluffy, and that made it a novel experience if nothing else. Also going to try it with Decaf coffee ice cubes.

just finished story time. I have decided that i can no longer do any food related story times! :) too dangerous...for the kiddies. heehee

Glad it helped Neenagh.

Yes, blending is KEY as well. Foget that shaking thing or stirring with a whisk....put it in a blender and blend 'er up goooood. Then, add your extract and blend again. Then sip away!

BTW, your granddaughter is a cutie petutie!

all the boys are blonde and fair, and she's the only dark one, eyes, hair, skin. So my husband (he's italian) walks around holding her like a trophy, insisting to everyone "doesn't she look just like me?" he never mentions that our daughter in law is half spanish!

Hey Neenaugh, I'm not sure if your already doing this or not, but I found if I added tons of ice in the blender with the Water and opti-crap, then it tasted alot better too. Good Luck, you'll feel great when you get through it!!:)

      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.
