My honey has me on a 3,000 cal/day diet with homemade shakes from some magical creation she makes. She has a food press so I am getting fruits and veggies in the shakes, chocolate ice cream, homemade oat milk (not sure how she milks oats but heh) Ensure, a whole bunch of anti-oxidants from natural sources, whey powder, she waits until I am ready to drink them to put a banana in there. They are pretty delicious. She tried something new today by adding peanut butter, that was very different, took away the chug-ability of the shakes. I get about 1300 calories from her 40 oz shakes and she makes sure that I eat donuts in the morning, lunch at work, and dinner. My VA Nutritionist is very happy with the fact that I haven't lost any weight, staying right at 190 lbs. I lost about 100 lbs prior to diagnosis, now that I know what it is, we are fighting back. I need the 3,000 cal/day because the fasciculations are constant, and I am just burning energy.
