I’ve been thinking of ordering from one of those what I like to call bachelor chow services such as Huel or JimmyJoy. I’m disabled and often don’t have the energy to cook for myself but I really want to order out less. Would this be a good investment? They are around 2-3 dollars a meal, but shipping kills that.

    i can’t really stomach solid food until mid day at the earliest (so i basically fast most of the day)

    set up a good routine using those instant breakfast packs (they are basically a multivitamin, protein, and some carbs), adding some collagen for my old ass skin and joints and a scoop of protein powder. then highly diluted milk or just water as a base.

    i guzzle it down on my way to work and it’s been better then the alternative (which was nothing, followed by grueling physical labor)

    rough guess is each liter i mix up costs about $1-1.50 or so but the upfront cost was kind of high (about $50 but lasts 4 weeks)
