    My aunt has cancer and for her, protein drinks are the only thing that tastes good to her right now. I understand doing this for true medical reasons such as chemo patients or the posters who had jaw surgery; for them this is their only true means of nutrition. I can't imagine a healthy adult wanting or needing to consume only protein drinks especially when you can eat fruits, veggies and other nutrient rich foods.

    No, I have never used protein shakes as a meal substitute. I have never been on a diet. I prefer to have a lifestyle plan that is sustainable over the long term.

    you will probably lose weight and as soon as you go off this diet you will definitely gain it back and maybe some extra weight.
