Happy Monday all With my back pain, I have had no appetite, so I'm primarily eating protein bars, Atkins Shakes, Egg Beaters. and CC Smoothies to make sure I get in all my protein. I try to eat at least some dinner, but I'm just not hungry. Maggie

Mornin' all! I don't have much variety yet as I am still on liquids but here goes: B - 1/2 pouch of Isopure peanut butter flavor powder 25g protein mixed with 8 oz 1% milk, 8 g protein S - 8oz crystal light L - Tomato soup Water Water Water D - 1/2 pouch of Isopure vanilla flavor with 8oz 1% milk Water Water Water.... This is day 4 on liquids and I am already bored with it. Knowing that my tender new pouch is healing better with the liquids keeps me going with it, but I am looking forward to stage 4! Terri Have a great day!

Carmen- Tell me about the SF Chai tea...is that Trader Joe's too? I used to get the sugared stuff there and loved it. Is it decaf?? Joanie

Joanie, Mocaf makes it and I got it at Marshall in all places. I use to get it from my b/f when he would come down from the city during the weekend (but that was mixed with sugar) So when I found it in Marshalls (3.99/14 oz can) and it was sugar free I freaked out!!! It tastes so good!!!! Mocaf makes it www.mocafe.net. it's lowfat creamy vanilla spiced tea mix. sweetened with splenda. Yoou mix one scoop to 6 oz of ho****er but I add 8 oz so i****ers it down alittle. 150 calories 18 g total carb protein 8 g 5g total fat I use to buy the one from Trader Joes and I loved it so much but it has sugar so I can't do it!!! I also buy Teahouse chai from Celestial Seasonings (Original India Spice) and you can get that in Decaf (stop and shop sells it) I drink that with my organic skim milk and it is so good also. Carmen

Chai tea..and protein to boot! I am there! Thanks Carmen~ Joanie
