Haha! Both???!!

Meaning that the topic has COMPLETELY changed from what the Original Poster asked :-).

Officially hijacked!

You're right. I'm tolerating plain water better these days so that's a good thing.

I think they do, just a different company now.

LOL!! Big belly laugh! (With the emphasis on big belly)!

Oh yeah! That's called trumkies! Used to have at least one every night!!

Ooh good idea! I didn't think of that. I have to do caffeine free, but I bet they have those too.

AND we could have them earlier in the purée stage if we put them in a blender first, right?!!

I used to be able to drink vitamin water zero, powerade zero, and anything diet, but now the taste of artificial sweeteners makes me sick! Any advice?

Do you get to count your protein as liquid too? I drink Isopure (like Gatorade-ish not a shake) and I count the 15 proteins plus the 8 oz as liquid.

Twinkies are a SOFT food, right?!!! LOL!

Pass the popcorn!! :-)

That is SO scary! Thank you for sharing that story. It just makes it real. OP, please follow your DR.s orders! It could be a matter of life and death - not just some extra calories.

Being honest - 13 days post op and have not "cheated" once. Too dangerous! My tummy just got sliced, stapled, and stitched and I'm not going to risk letting anything interfere with the healing! Don't do it. You're only hurting yourself.

I drank Gatorade and apple juice on my flights home. You have to buy it there at the airport. They won't let you take more than 3 oz through security.

Yes, anyone who asks can join the table. I think most of us are loving the cool table experience that we missed when we were younger! :-)

I added mfp. My name is KUWags. Can u plz add me? Kailisa, first thing I'm going to try on the next stage is this ricotta bake recipe I found on the forum: Ricotta bake 8 oz of Ricotta cheese 1/2 cup grated Parmesan 1 large Egg, beaten 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning salt & pepper to taste 1/2 cup Marinara Sauce 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake it in the oven @ 450 for about 20-25 minutes (best) or nuke it till hot and bubbly. I usually made it first in the oven and heated the leftovers in the microwave

Oh my gosh, you are making me soooo hungry!

So line leader, butt head, cat, creepy unicorn and ass kisser walk into a bar..... Sounds like the start of a really good joke :-)

What? Why?

Masterful!!
