Hi Ladies

Are protein drinks suppose to be supplemented (sp?) instead of meals or addition to meals?

Mine is my breakfast every day.  I tend to have it early, around 6:30 in the morning and then around 10am I eat something more solid.  It works for me.

My doctor doesn't want me drinking them after the first and second week of surgery.  He wants me to be on more of a dense, solid diet once the healing is over so as to satisfy the hunger easier.  I notice a lot of you still do the drinks though.  Interesting...

My doctor doesn't want me to drink them either but sometimes its a easy way to help get the protein in.  I don't drink them every day but I do have them atleast 4 times a wk.

Ok, that makes sense.  I used to drink protein shakes a lot a while back so I'll probably be supplementing, too, here and there.  Thanks!

My nutritionist feels I still need more protein in a day (70-80 grams) than I can get as food, so I'm supposed to drink one shake as a snack, in addition to my three meals. That will eventually go away as I continue to lose weight (once I get down to about 250).
