Do you use straws?



Recommended Posts

I use straws all the time. The reason I was told not to use straws is because you let air in - and you'll get gas AND it promotes gulping-which we all know is a no-no! I have no problem with straws, so I use them!:smile:

I have tried to use a straws over the last couple of days and it does not work for me. When I would use the straw I would drink to fast and also drink to much which resulted in me having an upset stomach.

I have not used straws yet because I was told it was a BIG no no. I drink iced coffee 1-2 times a day and people have looked at me like I'm nuts for not using a straw. Even my mother asked why. But now I'm curious if it would be a problem at all. My luck it would be though lol

I do not use straws as a rule...I have had to use one every now and again, but I could count those times on one hand. My doc says not to use them.

My doctor advised against it, thus I do not use them.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

If your doctor advised against it, then you should stick with his/her plan.<o:p></o:p>

If your doctor did not deny you the straws, then have at it.<o:p></o:p>

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
