20 grams of Fat

Hi Mark, a lot of people find it difficult eating solid food to get their 20 grams of fat, and so take it either as milk or olive oil, check out this thread too -

All the best of luck.

Does anyone know if fats in solid food are better or is 20 grams of any kind of fat just as good? Choc milk with some added whole cream sounds palitable and easy.

hey everyone its sabroso you guys know I am doing the hep c treatment with the telapravir three times a day but the last 3 weeks you know I been getting sick around 3 am and 6 a.m. so my DR started a regimen of metocopramide ondansetron and dronabinol and the last 5 days I have not got sick but it was when I started eating the whole 20 grams of fat that I started feeling better. I need to stress the importance of eating THE 20 GRAMS OF FAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright cool I'll add that idea of having milk with stuff to the list if you don't mind..I'll also let my dad know, I think he just tries to get his fat from one kind of food at a time.

one thing I have found is to divide things up. Like it may take 2 ding dongs to equal the right amount of fat, but you could take 1 ding dong, and 1 cup of whole milk.

The milk helps wash the pills down anyway, and the ding dong makes you want milk.

My first month, I tried to pick a food, and eat 20 grams of it such as the two ding dongs.

or20 grams of cookies. It's so much easier now that I do half the fat as a cup of milk.

My breakfast use to be 2 string cheeses=20 grams.

 Now a 10 gram cookie, with a cup of milk is much nicer.
