You can't help it, but you are taking the initiative to share on here so that means you ARE dealing with it, even though it seems to rule you sometimes. We all get it and have all been there. Have you tried scrambled eggs? Kevin ate these almost all of tx except the last week or rads and the 2 weeks after. They slid down easily and had very little taste but LOTS of protein. Just a thought. He also did the noodles with butter. The 3 minute spiral pasta seemed to work the best for him. Not sure why?! Keep posting, it's definitely therapeutic!! Blessings, Kathy
