I just started eating these a few weeks ago but I like to put them in smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, even just a plain glass of milk. You can sprinkle them on salads, etc. They don't add flavor to anything. There are quite a few posts on this topic already too with loads of info if you search for them.

Get a heart rate monitor if you're worried about the exercise calories being inaccurate. As a waitress myself, we burn sometimes 1000s of calories. Do you have your profile set at the most active setting and eat back your exercise calories? Maybe I'm just confused on your post but I don't see how you can possibly be hungry…

You would think that they would be filling but they really aren't. I use them on days I work for the extra calories and protein but usually follow it up with a meal. I had no idea it was used in feeding tubes but I can see why you want to avoid. In that case, V-8 is great!

What about Ensure or Boost?

Thanks!

Where did you find them? I've been looking all over
