Have you tried Ensure or Boost drinks? They are high calorie/fiber drinks that aren't quite as thick as Carnation (I don't think). I have been using protein shakes but they are rather thick. Maybe someone will give you an idea that will sound good to me too! LOL Nothing tastes right or good so I have been just drinking to get my calories. As of last week I have only lost about 1 pound as well! :o)

I had a couple good days, feeling pretty good, but then mouth sores/blisters came back. :o( One more day off, then back to the grind.

Sorry that Jello almost choked you. I haven't tried it, thinking it would be hard to wrangle around in my mouth.

Keep hanging in there!
