Can I Just Live Off Muscle Milk Light Please?! =)

It has become really hard for me to stomach the protein shakes,so I tried muscle milk light a while back....YUMMMMM!!!! It goes down so good,my sleeve is lovin it! They are so darn expensive though! I have one for breakfast every morning after I get in my first 20 ozs of water...My problem is,when I try to eat like a bit of cottage cheese or soft chicken or something for lunch or dinner,I can't get enough down for it to be nutritionally good for me! And what I do get down keeps me so full for the rest of the day/night that it is hard to even get in the rest of my required liquids! Sooo here is my question: Can't I just live off muscle milk light and water for now? LOL Seriously though,I am thinking of just having a couple muscle milk lights a day,it would be 50 grams of protein,320 calories and 9 grams of fat! Then once I get that and my liquids in,I can try to eat something more solid. Idk,I think being 1 month out is a very confusing time,but I am enjoying learning more about my body and the signs it gives. Still love my new sleevie!!!! =))

    They also have Light in vanilla where I live. It's only 100 calories and 15 g of Protein - perfect!

  • I think that's what a lot of people have to do in the beginning to get their protein in at first. It is very difficult to get all the protein in with food, or would require a lot of grazing. I may

I absolutely LOVE their light flavor Cafe Latte. It is coffee flavored. Cafe Latte is the only one though that has caffeine so it isn't a good choice for recovery. But, once you're healed (if you choose to ingest caffeine) it becomes Breakfast with a kick. ;)

It's funny you mention this. Last night I was drinking a MML vanilla and NOT enjoying it, so I thought "hmmm...I wonder how it would taste if I put some starbucks instant coffee in one of them??" That would surely bury the flavor! Anyone tried this?

I'm new, sleeved on 3/05/2012, but I found mixing in some decaf coffee into a vanilla or chocolate shake really masks the "protein flavor / smell". I really like the cafe Carmel Atkins advantage shake which I believe is caffeine free.

Hey there! Nice to see a guy sleeve buddy! March 5 for me too. And, I am missing my coffee so will be trying this on March 12 when I can resume Protein shakes :)

I am preop. I am going to be sleeved on the 22nd. I am so thankful that you all have shared Mml experience. I am going to get some and premier as well. I want to have options. I may try to do straight liquids for a while also. I have such food anxieties. I just want to eat the right things.
