It's fine as long as there weren't any lumps in it.

no, you should be fine. It might not be your dr. rules but the rules are so different for so many of us. I just had to be on liquids for 3 days and then could go to mushies.

You should try to follow your Dr's orders but no harm done.

Oh I wish I only had 3 days of liquids, I'm in hell right now and feeling really bad for all the little starving children in ethiopia!

A liquid diet? That is any liquid including Soups, shakes and anything else that can fit through a straw. No bumps or lumps lol. Good luck xx

I am 3 1/2 days post op and was fine until today. Tired of Protein Shakes and sugar free stuff leaves bad taste behind. I have been instructed to be on a CLEAR liquid diet with 24 oz Protein shakes for first week, and then full liquid diet at second week, which would include applesauce, Tomato Soup, V-8 juice, cream of wheat, mashed potato, pureed veggies like peas, etc.

I'm not sure I can make it another 31/2 days, so may try Tomato Soup tomorrow just to tide hunger away. I can't stand the broths either, just does not taste good to me now. I love pizza and wht I would not give for a tblespoon of pizza sauce right now!

I also had 7 days clear liquid. I urge you to stick with it. I would try adding Mrs Dash non salt flavorings before heating. Also I bought stock instead of broth it has a lot more flavor. Also don't bother with low salt stock full liquids is bad enough.

      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.
