Could you please go into more detail with what your Sustagen regime was like? Number of drinks per day? Taste? Cost? Preparation? No problems if you can't - but I'd love to hear it from someone that's been through it before (under cancer no less! hope you got better). The website you shared says that it's merely a nutritional supplement - I'd just like to know what a full regime of meal replacement would be like over say a day (do you have breakfast? or do you just drink whenever you are hungry?). Pretty much what was your daily eating schedule like during those liquid only stretches.

Pretty much drink it when you're hungry. I usually had 3-4 serves a day at random times. A serve is 2 tablespoons of the powder mixed into a glass/tumbler of water. Keep in mind I was nearly 100% dormant for those months, so I wasn't exactly building up an appetite. The most exercise I'd get would be a trip to the bathroom. I rarely got hungry with 3-4 serves a day. Occasionally I would try eat some fruit and (real/natural) yoghurt. Just for taste/sanity more than health/hunger. Maybe once a week or so, and about a coffee-mug sized portion at most was all I could handle. I believe the websites say they're a "supplement" for legal purposes? I'm not sure. The doctors, nutritionists, and specialists all agreed I could live indefinitely off it. (Thanks for the well wishes, but there's no getting better from my particular case, just a matter of prolonging it now)
