No matter how much Ensure, alcohol, sugar or full fat milk I put in my weight keeps dropping. I'm now 10.5 stone and if it wasn't for my inability to kiss or smile I think I might even be appealing. As it is it's a race between weight and MND for who gets to kill me first. Life is truly a female dog. 😉😁x

You kinda need to know what calories you are consuming everyday and to know what you should be aiming for.
I don't know what you take, but those Ensure Compact, for example, contain 300cals so, if that's all you were taking, you would need to have 8 bottles to get 2400cals, which is an average daily calorie requirement for an average man. (I know you are far from being an average man 😂😂) This figure can vary. Ideally a Dietitian should have had a chat with you around the time of your PEG procedure so you not flying blind 🤔Diagnosed 03/2007. Sporadic Definite ALS/MND Spinal (hand) Onset.
