Sick of the liquid diet



Recommended Posts

I honestly felt that the liquid post-op was harder than the pre-op. But today is the day that I finish the mushy part and I have to say, I am a little scared. I almost wish I could hide behind the shakes again....

Have you tried the tuna Creations, Herb and Garlic, yummmmmy? That's alot better than the canned tuna, juicier too.

I quadruple that. I am so sick of the liquid diet as well. I am on day 6 after the surgery and I seriously can't even look at a Protein shake. They gross me out now. I'm only drinking one for Breakfast and then the rest liquids. How many Protein shakes are ya'll drinking?

I can't wait to eat Tomato Soup next week. Thank heavens.

What solids are you adding in? I was banded the same day but am supposed to stay on liquids for 14 days ... meaning no food (not even mushies) until next Monday! (That thought makes me want to cry). Anyways, I'm healing well and I'm handling all my thick liquids really well so I want to start trying mushies (slowly of course). I still dont have an appetite, so I'd be having just a few bits of soft food, not enough to hurt.

Let me know which work for you :lol: & congrats for moving on in your diet phase! lol

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
