Yes, they do. BUT NOT without your permission. My daughter was tube feed until she reached her target weight. She ate normal size meal during the day, and was given additional nourishment while she slept via the tube. It is a whole lot better than having her eat 3600 calories a day to gain weight. The additional benefit is that the patient gets use to eating normal size meals throughout treatment.
