Anyone drinking Ensure?

autumnbride07

I have been terribly nauseous for 7 weeks until now and not able to eat alot. I don't throw up, but I've lost 10 lbs in 5 weeks. I've tried Zofran, but it doesn't make a difference, as well as every other "nausea cure" in the book. I am starting to feel weak and feel bad that I'm not eating a balanced diet, so I bought some Ensure tonight. I don't want to to replace my food intake obviously, but I feel like maybe it will make up for not eating as much as I have been (plus lots of protein). Is anyone else drinking Ensure? How much are you drinking a day? Did you talk to you doctor about this? TIA!

I've used ensure in the past, not pg related but I was on a med that made me sick and had to keep taking it...it got better..anyway....I drank them in addition to breakfast, and usually as a mid afternoon "snack" along with something else.  Be careful though b.c some of the meal replacement drinks contain a lot of sugar.

Smoothies worked well for me too, I add protein powder to them, with frozen fruit, yogurt and soy milk...(you can use any milk).
