Re: nutrition drinks

I drink nutrition drinks all the time and don't care who knows it. It's all about getting adequate, yet quick, nutrition that isn't total junk. Drinkable yogurt rocks.


But then, I wear high heels and feather boas, too. Just kidding. :)

Re: nutrition drinks

My crowd thinks I'm a punk for drinking 'Diet' Cokes much less those drinks (Heavy testosterone/machismo crew). I drink the yogurt drinks and the smoothies also though, but I extend my middle finger while doing it  ;D Just use the Sex Pistols approach to etiquette and always give a rats-butt to what people think  ;)

And say things like “Oh yeah, I’ll be dancing over your malnourished bodies one day!”
 
Re: nutrition drinks

..try being a vegetarian. i have to deal with people saying "What! !? :o your a vegetarian!! ? are you serious! ?.. dont you like to eat steak?.. dont you miss eating burgers?!! dont you miss .. dont you.. blah blah blah" all the time..
 
Re: nutrition drinks

WHAT IAL, YOU'RE A VEGETARIAN, DUDE........!! Just kidding  ;D ;D ;D

My ex-wife and several friends are vegetarian and you’re absolutely right, it’s the same broken record from people “why, blah, blah, blah”. I even get defensive on their behalf sometimes because it’s just completely annoying.
 
Re: nutrition drinks

..my wife and I call them the vegetarian police. ..its like they instantly whip out a little flashing red light, and stick it in their hat, and start questioning you. over the years I have become aware of many different police groups .. to name a few:

..there is also the pregnancy police.. (you know when someones pregnant, and they are like .. "you know what you need to do.. let me tell you")

the nationality police.. (the ones that are always like "so what nationality are you?" like it matters or "yeah there was this chinese guy", and it has nothing to do with the story)

the child police ("how old is she?..what is her name?.. can i hold her?".. yeah right)

the diet police ( "oh really!? so what sort of diet are you on.. so how much do you wiegh.. how muchwight have you lost?)

one of my least favorites.. the motion picture police:("so are you guys making a movie!?" can i be in it? i could be a crazy guy.. do you need a crazy guy" .... no we dont " my brother was in a movie once.. he sent it into AFV and it never played.. he just had a bucket on his head" .... yeah uh were trying to work here. ive got alot of stuff to do.. "so maybe i could give you my numbner for if you ever need someone" uh, yeah ..sure . write it on the sidewalk over there with this peice of leftover candy bar.. it was in a movie "it was!! awsome!" ...yeah see you later.. enjoy it.)


the religion/faith police..lets not even go there...




and many other secret police organizations that exist. watch out or they will bring you in for questioning too! they all have one thing in common though.. its none of their business.

Re: nutrition drinks

iam - "Ensure" is a high calorie drink. Be careful you aren't overloading yourself. Especially if you already have a balanced diet. Drinks like Ensure are normally used by people with medical conditions or the aged when they can't get enough nutrition from a regular diet.

So, I wouldn't be worried about looking girly but looking like you have a health problem. Oh wait, you do, your a vegetarian! Just joking! ;)

Seriously though, I'm amazed at how people gulp down "health" drinks in large quantities because they think there's nothing wrong. But, look at how many calories are in those fruit smoothies. Add that on top of most poor diets and no wonder everyone is gaining weight. Side note: people started to think about calorie content in these drinks so Jamba juice (popular brand) came out with new versions of their drinks with around half the calories and sugar. We are actually starting to see this calorie and sugar reduction trend throughout the food industry. That's a good thing.
 
Re: nutrition drinks

Girly? It takes a real man to walk down the street wearing a tutu.

I eat nutritional bars (Zone usually) and my drinks consists of tons of water, iced tea and fruit smooties. Man I love a fruit smoothie. Dude, dont fret the ENSURE drink.

Are you drinking it as a supplement or are there other goals you are trying to meet?
