Did I mess up full liquids?



Recommended Posts

Ok so we went out for lunch and there was nothing on the menu I could have. So after my family finished eating, we went to Chik FilA and I got chicken Soup. They were nice enough to give me extra broth (I am on full liquids). So I had my broth and was set! I saved the rest for dinner. I got this wild idea to just throw the rest of my soup in my Magic Bullet and blend with some extra broth to thin it out. Well I threw it all in, noodles, carrots and chicken chunks. I blended it up, heated it up and drank most of it. Now I feel so sick. Was it the blended noodles? Was it the blended veg? My tummy is so freaking full, it hurts. I have horrible gas pains. Maybe I ate too fast or too much but I have to wonder - was it the blended soup?!?!

Note to self - just because you liquidify it, doesn't make it OK on full liquids... hahahaha SMH!!

Side note - it tastes FREAKING AMAZING hahaah

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, that would be appropriate for the mushies/pureed phase, not full liquids. Full liquids should only be things that are liquid when warm. Sorry you are hurting! I hope it passes soon and you can try it again when you graduate to the mushy phase.

Yeah, that sounds like my dilemma. I don't like anything I have tried pureed.< /span>:mellow: I went back to Protein Shakes and the like right after I tried 2 or 3 times to eat small mushy food servings. Even nonfat cot cheese tastes terrible--I loved it preop. I can do 2 T oyster crackers or one whole grain bread slice toasted now. Afraid to try grains like rice yet. I find my preop foods are too sweet tasting even though I have not done anything to add sweetness to them with artificial sweeteners. I miss crunching and chewing foods. Gum does nothing but stimulate my hunger. Would rather have light Snacks or micromeals throughout the day. I seem to do fine with getting my Vitamins and nutrient supplements in, tho. Glad I got my sleeve! Wishing you the very best in recovery and your treatment. Ronda :D

      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.
