aznoel 3 Posted May 12, 2012 With my EGD on Monday, Wednesday surgery class, and Friday EKG and tests....it REALLY does feel like it going pretty fast!! I've noticed that I'm craving things, almost like it will be the last time I get to eat them cravings. Anyone else having those. Weird for me to feel like I'm going through a loss for food period. I decided to semi start my pre-surgery diet with 1 Protein Shake for Breakfast and 2 smaller meals...I like the idea of the healthy choice as one of the meals...I'm going to have to try that. It's very exciting to have many June-sleevers to chat with!! I've started going to our local support group, but am glad that I have many of you to chat with and help with my journey!! My family is very supportive, but they are all thin and don't quite understand what I've been going through, it's nice to not feel like the oddball anymore, and that I can get support here too!! Thank you, it's making my process a lot easier!! Good luck with all of you, WE'RE going to do GREAT!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What about the unflavored, is it really "unflavored"?[/quote'] Try Syntrax nectar. You can find it on Amazon.com. It comes in several flavors like lemonade (my fave) and fuzzy navel. unjury has an unflavored that isn't bad when mixed with other things. Also Unjury chicken Soup isn't bad either. Thought I would add that I'm waiting on a call from my surgeon for a date in June! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
