Ovaltine

[Laaux]

Hi Guys,

I've been on the quest to find something warm to drink that I actually like. I don't do coffee or tea really.

I'm 3 weeks out today and I love ovaltine, I've purchased the ovaltine light and I am only going to have 2 teaspoons mixed with hot water but then it suddenly dawned on me.. Am I okay to have this?

It's packed full of vitamins but I just want to check as I don't want to risk damaging my new stomach in any way or being sick!

Someone help please!

Thanks

I was recommended Horlicks Light by my dietitian (and Ovaltime is similar.). Drink buckets of it and it helps to keep my calcium levels up, as well as all the other good vits in it. Enjoy.

Fab thanks Jojo! I only managed a few mouthfuls of it last night but I will give it a go again! I just miss a warm drink when the nights are chilly, rest of the time I stick with plain water. How are you doing? Xx

Yummy!! I'm on the puréed stage too but I'm hating it lol pureed food just makes me gag. I've tried a few different things though, I suppose it's better than liquids. Just can't wait for normal foods again! Wow that weight loss is fantastic!! Well done you xx
