I tried the chicken Soup right after surgery and did not like it. Its worth trying again. I have found my tastes have changed since those first few weeks. I tried the unflavored in a bottle of flavored Water I felt it had a horrible after taste but I should probably try again. I found out if I heat up the milk and try to drink the unjury chocolate I like the taste BUT it doesn't mix very well and the chunks make me sick.

Eating and drinking have been a huge struggle for me.

I have not had any Protein supplements in about 4 weeks. I have been trying to get my Protein from food but not getting any were near enough. I agree I was able to do the chicken soup UNTIL I bought the whole tube now I can't stand it. I bought 4 Quest Bars and lost them (I suspect my little ones found them). I have decided that there is no way in the world that I was getting 80-100 gms of protein with my old eating habits so I refuse to stress over nasty protein supplements.< /p>

Have you tried heating it a little after you mix the milk with the powder?

How far out are you? I'm 8 weeks today and find that I can drink Water like a fish and eating is much easier than the first few weeks (1-5)

I was 8 weeks on Tuesday. I am getting better but still cannot eat or drink like I am supposed to. I am afraid I won't lose if I don't get the Protein in, Right now I am getting between 400 and 500 calories. How many are you eating?

No I didn't try heating it after but I did think about trying it. That stuff is just so expensive I hate to keep wasting it!

I stopped tracking about a week ago and I was between 600-700. Are you losing or have you stalled? I'm don't think I'm eating enouch calories. I don't weight myself so I don't know if I should increase my intake but I eat when I'm hungry.

Give it a try. unjury should not be heated over140 degrees or it will clump. I agree it is very expensive but you are worth it and if you dont try it you will never know (just one cup)

I weigh myself obsessively, wish I could stop! I am still losing but much slower then I was. I was losing a pound a day. Now its a pound every few days.

I am worried that I am not getting enough but the Dr said as long as I don't get dizzy I am fine. I eat when I am hungery also it is usualy just half of a light yogurt or something about the same calorie wise when I eat.

Can't wait for this journey to get easier! Do you ever wish you hadn't done it? I did all the time at first now just like once a week. I am looking forward to the day when I can say it was the best decision I ever made.

I did have a lot of regret in the begin now I don't think about it. I eat normal food but just a lot less maybe 1/4 to 1/3 cup. I am so afraid to become obsessed with the scale that I stay away from it. I wont be weighed again until the end of August (last time was around July 7th). Although there are times when I want to know my weight, I hid the scale now I can't find it.

HAHAHA I would so go buy a new one! I weigh every morning and every night. Even if I didn't want to my husband religiously asks me. He is just trying to be supportive but its annoying when the scale hasn't moved and he asks.

I want to try the new chips, but I have a feeling they'll be a slider or trigger food for me. I didn't have a "thing" for chips before, so I don't know..

It's amazing that they're managing about 22gr protein/140 calories. Super impressed!

Well if you are fine without weighing then maybe you shouldn't. I wish I was!

I'm a big fan of Quest bars. I always order them online from www.QuestNutrition.com, becuase the few times I purchased some at a GNC store they were dry-ish... kinda stale. The ones I get online are never that way.

So I was placing yet another online order a couple of days ago and noticed the new chips... and ordered some of those too. When I've tried them I'll post about it.

And the carb count of the bars - net 3 gms per bar. That's the only carbs I'm eating these days.
