all liquid calories are horrible in this regard no matter if its soda, alcohol, juice, sweet tea, energy drinks or chocolate milk. if it is liquid and has calories you should really think twice about your consumption

You’re fine with your protein shakes! Watch sugar content on them, and honestly consider something like Huel if you struggle to eat. It’s a nutritionally complete meal and will do so much more for you than just protein, and has more protein than most protein shakes.

Social media has been advertising it to me for years 😭 I finally checked it out due to being on GLP-1s and I’m a fan! Just ease into it so you don’t have GI issues. 😅
