@philyfree How about for 1030 extra calories, a shake made of one 220 ml bottle of ensure plus (330 calories), two thirds of a scandishake sachet (400 calories) and one benecalorie (300 calories)? You'd need a good bit of creon first though due to the fat, but one young CFer used it with pediasure and 1/2 a scandishake instead of 3/4. Btw I don't have CF but I'm very interested in treatments for a lot of genetic conditions, and I do have one myself, also with high energy needs.

I came across this video while sipping a scandishake in my hospital bed :) I have CF as well and I have to tell you, this Scandishake business is some disgusting tasting stuff. I think I should take your advice....but wait, I don't remember anything you actually said. It seems I kind of got distracted by how ridiculously cute you are. Hm...I guess I need to watch it again to actually pay attention to the words. Anywho, best of luck with the weight gain, your cyster here is cheering for ya :)

brandi again----
that really sucks for everyone with cf that have to take enzymes or who cant gain weight. i have cf too, but its just with my lungs.

I have CF too and I have a really hard time gaining weight. I'm really tiny, and my doctors have made me try all the gross shakes/powders too. But I found one called Mammoth and it's amazing! I get the vanilla flavour and it's the most amazing smell ever, all my friends even want me to make milkshakes for them. lol
So whoever out there needs a good protein powder, try looking for that if you're picky like me :)

im 5'2 weighing 117. my doc wants me at healthy 130 and ive been trying sooo fuckin hard with the shakes but i hate them. i got some something at the vitamin shoppe tech x mass weight gain. so far its only been 2 weeks but ive been feeling fuller and still able to eat my meals so im hoping i gain at least 5 pounds this month. and a question, my brother is into body building and hes telling me if i work out and drink shake ill get bigger. is this true with cf?!

I used to buy from my gym when I was lifting. It came in a pretty big resealable bag and I would mix it with either fruit, or more cheaply for a college student, peanut butter to add even more calories. Plus the bag stuff from the gym was TONS cheaper than the stuff from GNC and store's like that (and if I remember correctly, had more protein per serving). Good luck and keep up the vids.

@TheRealMrHelyar Get fortisip. Protein shakes are crap.
Can I drink Met Rx Xtreme Size Up with 17 or is it not safe for me? Or is it not important how old I am that I can drink Met Rx Xtreme Size Up?
