Mike has a hard time getting anything down and has lost about 70#. Had his PEG out way to soon IMHO. Anyhow, to stop his weight loss I concocted a shake to give him calories. It consists of 3 ensure plus, 1 envelope of instant breakfast, 1 cup of Haagen Daz ice cream (highest calorie I could find), peanut butter, half cup of heavy whipping cream, choc syrup (helps the taste a bit) and at least one cup of whole milk - more if he needs it thinned down. I figured one blender to be about 2340 calories. Have also used vanilla ensure and added some strawberry jelly instead of peanut butter. Just a thought.
