Bored With Liquid Diet Choices!!!



Recommended Posts

I am just moving on to the "creamy liquid" diet... and I just can't seem to get excited about any of the choices! The Protein Shakes are SO GROSS and too sweet to me. Does anyone know of a good tasting Protein shake???

What things did you survive on during this stage?

I would like to know of a good tasting Protein Shake, too. I've tried just about everything and they all make me gag.

I never found anything good tasting. You can get flavorless Protein Powder and put it in your food. I was so happy to eat normally so I could get my Protein from food.

Equate generic form Oscar slim fast is really good. The only thing about it is it only offers 10g of Protein and it's packed with 170 calories. Im 5 days post op and I'll usually drink half a can then drink some Water or g2o and a small spoon of Peanut Butter for more protein and drink the rest later and if I want anything in between and yosicle sugar free popsicles are AMAZING

I got through it using Soup. Good wholesome, homemade Soups. All you have to do is cook your veggie of choice in some stock and then blend to a suitable consistency. Adding things like Beans, lentils, chickpeas ups the Protein content. You can add herbs and spices and give them as much or as little flavour as you want.

Much tastier and more satisfying than those horrible sweet Protein shakes that taste nothing like food.

I found Soups worked best and lots of good ideas on this site under nutrition

      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.
