Thanks for the recommendation. I had some Carnation instant breakfast PLUS left from my stay in the hospital. That was soooo sweet...sickening, especially the vanilla. The Ensure isn't too bad, but it is still pretty sweet. I got the kind with extra fiber  Maybe I'll try the boost next. I saw that Ensure comes in powder form...so you can mix it at home. Seems like that would be much cheaper. Do you know if Boost comes as a powder?

I am not sure about the powder. I happen to like the carnation breakfast mixes, I drink them a lot when I need to take my pills and don't have time for breakfast!

Maybe it's just the PLUS kind that's really sweet...they have to do something to it to give it 375 calories in about 8 oz...sugar!! The second ingredient is corn syrup solids. Doesn't sound very healthy. And this was the canned stuff, not a mix/powder. Maybe I'll have to see what kind of powders are available.

I'M PREGNANT!
I must admit that I have spent most of the day in complete shock and disbelief, but two dollar store tests and a clearblue easy digital can't all be lying. I'm pregnant!!!
I have to say that I just did not feel much of anything the past two weeks. All along my instincts have been saying "no," but the tests prove me wrong!
Everyone, please think good thoughts for me for a healthy pregnancy! I'm just so excited!
Mary and Hohoyumyum, I'll still be checking in with you and hoping your journeys are nice and short!
