Good drink to have while eating a meal...

[Southflaguy]

What's a good beverage to drink when eating a meal?...Soda and real sweet juices are no good, so what's good?...What do you drink while eating a meal, say lunch or dinner?...I'm trying to gain weight, so that's my objective right now...


Thanks SFG...

I prefer Unsweetened Tea, or water with lemon. Hard to drink tea at night however as the caffeine keeps me up at night. If I am eating at home Crystal Light does the trick as well, low-sugar, yet tastes good.

I would say water, but you're trying to gain weight, so I'd say slam a shake down with your meals...........by shake I mean protein shake.

Whole milk.
Mark Rippetoe reccommends a gallon a day for weight gain.
If you try that, be warned! It is not as easy as it sounds and the effects can be...um... how do I put this? Explosive and often. Don't try it if you don't have regular access to a restroom. But if you can swing it, a gallon a day will move the scales.

Good stuff, I had tea with dinner tonight, not burping as much...

I do have to start drinking more milk shakes, I usually make them out of milk banana, I gotta stop and get some protien...

A whole gallon of milk, LOL, I'll see how my stomach acts after a few milk shakes...

Thanks for the posts!...

The milk trick is definitely it. I had a friend of mine that by adding a decent amount of whole milk (not sure if he made a gallon, but at least over a half-gallon a day), put on close to 15 pounds of lean mass.

Good luck, didn't catch that you were trying to gain weight until after I posted my earlier post.

I can get w/ milk...I don't know about drinking it w/ meals though...Shakes and stuff yeah, I'll drink a glass of warm milk before I go to bed toninght..

Man I grew up on Whole Milk, I truly believe it was essential to my muslces when I was young.

I drink Vodka, with Ice- watching my Carbs LOL

I enjoy 1% Milk with dinner. I drink so much water during the day, that I can't even look at it by dinner time.

I'd have a glass of scotch. You won't gain weight but you won't care.

Milk - if you are trying to gain, make it whole milk. You also can't go wrong with beer - just as long as it's not that unhealthy (and thoroughly wimpy) light beer.

Whole Milk, I have a buddy that used to sit drinking whole milk from the carton while eating peanut butter, he was trying to make the scales move....

[Southflaguy]

Was he successful?...I'm thinking of drinking milk and eating p&j sandwiches as extra side snaks...
