I went with my list to GNC today...they told me they usually sell PB2 (the Peanut Butter powder), but they were out of it...he said the grocery store across the street sold it...I was skeptical...they did have a product called PB2 that was a "natural peanut butter powder, " and it was on the shelf with the organic peanut butters (not in a health food or dietary section)...I have seen this product recommended on the message boards...is this product I bought at the grocery store the same as what others are using here on the message boards post-surgery?

Yes, it is. It comes in chocolate too. You just mix with Water to reconstitute, and it's rally tasty! You can mix it in with your shakes, eat it plain, it's so good, and really good on the calories and fat compared to regular Peanut Butter, and I personally can't tell the difference! I got mine from Amazon in a 2 pack with the chocolate, and it came with recipe cards, it's seriously yummy stuff!

Tried it years ago, wasn't a fan. The texture, for me just wasn't good. I'd just rather make my own or get some ground nut butters from the health food store.

thanks, y'all..I have another question...whenever something calls for a "scoop," how does that translate as far as tablespoon measurement? I have seen scoops in various sizes, so I don't know what a standard "scoop" is

I would say 1.5 to 2 TBSP.

      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.
