I'm not big on breakfast in the morning so I drink a protein shake. I eat lunch and supper just fine. I struggle to get 3 dairy snacks in a day. It seems like a lot of meals. Anyone else required to take in 3 dairy snacks? I'm allowed to drink dairy as

Hello, I'm new to the forum. Tested negative for Covid and now I'm quarantined for surgery. I'm a little nervous since I won't have a support person at the hospital due to Covid. My dad is 79 and can't take any risks. I trust my surgeon and am looking
