Thanks Julieann - I guess that I was hoping for some magic solution. You are saying almost the same thing that my wife says - "Just do it!". However, after my attempt last night, I thought that I was going to throw up after only two bites.
Yes, I am doing the Carnation breakfast - 560 calories thru the tube. I tried drinking one, but it was very thick and creamy (usually a good thing)and I could not drink much of it. It seems like the only thing that does not make me sick is the little cups of pudding - bananna & butterscotch flavored. Maybe it's just going to take a longer time than I thought.
