What are or were your favorite foods to "eat" on the liquid stage?



Recommended Posts

I'm 10 days post op and have to wait until Tuesday before i get more of the "mushie" type foods. I'm getting bored with what I've been having so I'm wondering what were some of your favorite things to eat on liquids? :)

I pretty much lived on Jello, yogurt, carnation instant Breakfast and broth. The week before surgery I put chicken and vegetables in the crock pot. When it was done, I strained it and threw away the solids. Then I put the broth in small containern the freezer in preparation for my 2 weeks of Clear Liquids.< /span>

Broccoli cheese Soup, thinned out with milk, put through a blender, and heated up. A few cooked grits added to it for a little texture (things like grits and cream of wheat are allowed on my liquid diet). Either with or without the grits: yummy!

Mmm that sounds so good! I can have cream of wheat on my liquids stage, does that mean probably grits as well?

I would guess so. My surgeon listed several things that were about that consistency: cream of rice, cream of wheat, grits . . . the paperwork says to thin it out enough so that you could get it through a straw. I've had grits twice now and it was fabulous. :)

      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.
