@brettsza , what shakes are you using? You can get savoury ones. Soups And porridge. I am not fussy on the sweet ones, but there are some that are less sweet. I disguise the taste with coffee, cinnamon or nutmeg if I don't like them. I find hazelnut and vanilla seem less sweet. Also use the bars for an occasional meal. Dark chocolate bar from shake that weight is not too bad.I think the hardest part of the ND as per me is having to drink the shake which is sweet, really struggling with that to be honest, I already put more water in it than recommended and also putting coffee in shakes to take the sweet nip off it.
I am using shake that weight. Problem is I have hated sugars in everything since beginning, so if I have anything sweet it will only be my tea, I cant have tea without sugar so I have completely stopped it for now as I cant really have milk either, can't take black tea no matter how, but can I have porridge? I thought I can't have anything except shakes and those vegetables mentioned, I just added an egg yesterday just to add more calories to just 500 to 600 I am having presently.
