Of course I'm not accusin' you of being a Quayle. You know exactly how many "E"'s are in the word Potatoe :blink:

Besides, even to call you Quayle is a compliment about your ability to survive (stay with me here)...

Quayle sounds like Quail - the bird that Dick Cheney likes to hunt. They are such smart birds that, if you let them out of a cage in the middle of a group of hunters, they can trick the hunters into shooting each other!

(OK... that was a long way for a very bad joke.... I am sorry) :)

And I always thought Humble referred to a spiritual place...not an actual town!

Beth - Quayle spelled it "potatoe"; thus Steve's joke above!

That was good, actually!!! My nuclear family's anti-gun. My parents used to joke about how people needed guns to watch out for the "killer quail" so it was esp applicable to me!

Beth - Less than 2 weeks til surgery! Figure out now what Protein Shakes you can tolerate er stomach. Get it? har har. I didn't take into account just how much I would need for 3 weeks of liquids so I've gone shopping more than I had intended to. My two cents.

SnT & Beth - not sure if i mentioned this, but my FAVE Protein shake is muscle milk... it is pretty high in fat / cals but it's very filling.... i drank it daily when i was working my ass off at the gym....

regular = 2 scoops - 300 cals 12g fat 32g Protein

lite = 2 scoops - 195 cals 6g fat 25g protein

(personally, i'd just do the regular for the variety)

if you dont want the regular, they do have a 'light version'

the regular version has a BUNCH of flavors - my fave was probably peanut butter/chocolate and Mocha Latte...

cake batter was WAYYYY too sweet

the light has fewer flavors and i've never tried them, but i've heard they are good!!

i bought mine thru Bodybuilding.com - CytoSport Product Listing - On Sale! Lowest Prices For CytoSport! FABULOUS customer service, fast shipping and good prices... (not affiliated, just happy customer)

but i know Vitamin Shoppe also has it - im sure GNC does too...

      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.
