hi everyone, i would like to ask if any one knows any good recipes for the soup and jelly diet?? i start the diet on the 7th of may so i thought i would try out a few recipes, i do not like cup a soups so i thought i would make my own and the dietician said that when i had strained the liquid out i can blend the rest and freeze it for the puréed stage. i can also use some spices but not chilly so if you have any ideas please let me know. when freezing the food should i use ice cube trays or bigger amounts in the puréed stage ?? also if i make plenty i can use it for the mushy stage if i leave it more textured, i would love to hear from you all as my op is fast approaching and need a bit of support. thanks polly

i just wondered if you have to have shakes as i hear so many people hate them but need the protein so they put up with them. i know i do not like normal milkshakes so i can imagine i will hate them. once upon a time you could buy empty fat (flakes) that you add to gain weight, then mix with your own food so that there was no unpleasant taste. i just hoped there is something of that basis and if there was what is it called. i live in england so i hope there is someone out there from the u.k that know of anything also the best vitamins and minerals someone said that metatone is ace and is in liquid form. i know i have not even had the surgery yet but i do want to know all about it before i go ahead. daft i know but i am one of those people that has to know it all before i take that leap.....

many many thanks i shall try to find one.

many thanks for answering, American pudding i think is called a mousse here and i do like mousse. i like the ice-cream type milkshakes but not any watery or thick shake, strange i know but i know i should try a few before hand and see if i could stomach it. i shall look for a protein mousse. many thanks
