Ideal Protein was recommended by a friend - my DH wants to investigate and has 30 +/- to lose. I have very high cholesterol (291 the first time I had it done) - I'm 5'3" and weigh 127 BUT....when my weight is below 120, my cholesterol is below 200 (go figure) but I have Celiac and have been gluten free for 14 years and have never done well with aspertane. Obvisouly, I'm fine with the "real food" aspect of the program but are the protein drinks, bars, etc. - I realize I have little to lose so I could do it without the the drinks, etc. but if DH does it, it would be great to drink too! Thanks in advance - I called the manufacturer and left a message but no one has responded.
