Hi I had a question, your shakes are they used as a meal supplement? I am having a hard time with the gaps in between eating and drinking. I am getting symptoms and was very curious about shakes. Would you mind explaining in detail how and when you use them? Thank you, your site is great too.
ReplyDelete@Avisualdistortion -- From the very beginning of my WLS journey, I've always been told to use protein shakes as "snakes" between meals. My surgeon's program wanted us to maintain our regular meal times to keep a sense of normalcy in our lives. But knowing we can't get all our calories and protein from just the 3 meals/day we can eat, he has his patients fill in the gaps with protein shakes between meals. Eventually we're able to eat more at mealtimes and could reduce the number of protein shakes per day.
