While it is getting more difficult to eat.......which results in increased weakness/lethargy......breathing issues etc.  .....................

I have been TRYING to get enough calories into my body to ..... survive.
Never in my life did I think it would ever come to this!
I am, what I classify as a 'foodie' who loves food.....
but, not anymore.

So, one of the strategies is to consume more liquid nourishment.

I had been relying on Carnation Instant Breakfast that I mix up myself.
It is good, and I posted about it already.

Lately, I have been drinking ENSURE....mostly the clear version of Blueberry Pomegranate in the bottle to get away form all the milky type shakes for awhile.  I like the Blueberry Pomegranate.

This week, the Strawberry  Ensure Muscle Health Shake is taking top billing. Premixed in the bottle.
