the sad fact is that this is what they "prescribed" but...i am going to call and "verify" that it's ok that i skip meals once in a while because i'd rather be "hungry" than sick. (hopefully she will have a better solution though) yeah, i wish they would have tested them, after reading that they sounded good, they would have noticed that was the only good part lol.

ok, i am sorry, it must be me. i think i have a taste retardation or something because.... adding 5 strawberries and half a banana with the ice and packet of meal stuff...put the blender stuff @ two serving sizes...which means it cut my meal in half in CONTENT..right? half potent? this time, the sips bring tears to my eyes lol. :thumbup: i liiiiike strawberries and bananas. but i don't like this. lol. and it smells better than it tastes TODAY. LOL. yesterday it smelled as bad as it tasted. haha

ok, thank you guys verrrrrrrry much. now that i know what one tastes the worst... (i am hoping) lol... it is PINEAPPLE-APRICOT and it makes me want to throw up after every sip and it takes me around 20 mins to get down because i am so scared of it. what can i do to hide the taste? LOL. i have strawberries...should i dump all of them in? :thumbup: lol.. ayeyayeyae. me scared. u know? i don't want to make it worse. lol. but..holy wow. this is baad. again, thank you guys. <333 and this is the label..

hey guys, thank you so much for the responses. =/ well, i cried myself to sleep LOL. i usually only cry when frustrated so i don't know if it was pain or frustration over pain. >:thumbup: BUT, here is the story... i am going to St. Joseph's hospital and the cooridnators, dietitian, etc...they chose this one brand because of the ingredients, i guess? they said it would be the best for their program, and we had to buy it. $150 for 2 weeks. so that will eventually become $300 for the liquid diet. it's 600 calories a day. (200 per...meal.) no...food. i've had slimfast and some other stuff before.........i thought that was bad...but it was just a lack of my attention you know? ...like...why have that crap when i can have food? lol. i was young. so i just blew it off. BUT THIS.........HOLY WOW. we had to buy it. not knowing what anything tasted like...annnnnnnd i picked a box of what the lady said "everyone loves this one" ..pineapple-apricot? and after every sip... no joke...i said "oh God." because...i couln't take it lol. anyways, here is the label. the front of the box says "must be under physician supervision if using under 800 calories per day" lol. i'm at the point where i am fearing my next meal...right now. i'd rather post on the forum. LOL. it's been ONE DAY. this will be my breakfast...my 4th meal. how many more to go? lol. *scream*

i hear you guys. :crying: i wish the surgery would come already, this pre-op liquid is making me sick. :wink2: lol.

AND PLEASE!! don't give me excuses!! :tt1: send me your perdy face and i will make you one and u can choose which to use! :wink2: i think i still have the file on my comp, otherwise i will take mine and replace parts of it. :wub: no prob! <3333 my email is kristysmiles2much@hotmail.com send it! :tt1:

i feel nautious...is this normal? like...borderline "time to throw up" and i haven't had anything in the last few hours. i had my 3 "meals" of liquid today. granted...they grossed me out, but i got them down. why am i sick now? :wink2: i drank Water because my head hurts and now i feel like getting rid of all of it. (throw it up). this is my 1st DAY lol. i just wanna cry. LOL. i feel so gross.:crying:

hey guys, i just got this idea for a means of "careful intake"... and i was wondering if anyone had any idea of the psychology behind it. remember back in school when you teacher had you learn to spell words by writing them over and over? and when you write, you are programming yourself...when you read, you are programming yourself. kinda like the "daily journals" - food and the gratitude journal...reinforcing, right? well, what if someone had a problem with .. a sweet tooth, or eating too much, and you want to have your mind over matter, just so that you are ok from the "root" of your desires.. what if you wrote "i have no desire for Cookies... cake.. diet coke.. lol" ? would that help? :cool2:

what kinda liquids you talking about harleynana!?! lol!!

pretty exciting, thank you guys! :wink2: <33

wewee. lots to think about. and everything makes sense. maybe its a do-all checks test lol. :wink2:

whoa, pretty cool. thank you guys :biggrin: when i had wisdom teeth pulled, because of my asthma, they couldn't "put me under" but...i was watching the whole thing, and in pain .. lol. so i am still kinda freaked out.

can u guys tell me the reason for chest x-ray before this procedure? are they checking my lungs because i have asthma? lol. or my heart? thanks in advance. :biggrin: so, on the 5th, i will be doing stress-echo, ekg, chest x-ray. wew. big day, huh? lol. (i think.)

i got scared about mine , and my bf said he'll buy me new ones, if i have to. LOLOL. lets hope we don't need to though. YOU KNOW WHAT?!? lol. this was so weird.. i was at the Dr. getting my date, and i locked my keys in the car and my best friend came to unlock me! AND in the parking structure, with my bf and i, she turned and gave me a serious look " YOU know how BIG your boobs are going to look when you lose weight!?" LOL...what the?!? haha. she's like...size G or H or something, so it was strange coming from her. lmao.

LOL i think i want to joke mine also. haha. i'm mean like that. :crying: BUT MANNN!!!! i am getting surgery ON my bday. and no freakiness!?!? lol. i am going to have to... make some kind of arrangement, ie: go to his house the night before. LOL, wake up, get crazy, then go home? HAHA. get ready for surgery @ 2pm. :redface: *gasp* lol.:thumbdown:
