PenguinLover 0 Posted September 24, 2011 So I am 5 days post op and my dietician said I could go on half Clear Liquids & full liquids for my diet, but so far I have been drinking Water, sugar free Jello, chicken and beef broth, and my Protein shake... I would like to add more full liquids to my diet , so any ideas are greatly appreciated Thanks <3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aroundhky 1,174 Posted November 8, 2011 Sounds like you can probably add some yogurt. I had my surgery Nov 3rd and on full liquids and dr said I can add yogurt, but wants to be be careful and not use yogurt with too much sugar added. So I take skim milk, unflavored Protein and yogurt along with ice and make smoothies. Have to sip and takes me all day to finish it. He's letting me start on mushy foods next week. Looking forward to some scrambled eggs, applesauce, whipped Peanut Butter, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
italianlady13 80 Posted November 9, 2011 lentil Soup. I ate it all the time in that stage and it gave me tons of Protein and was tasty. I STILL love it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yecats 109 Posted November 9, 2011 I read somewhere that someone added a litlle greek yogart to thier chicken Soup broth to make it thicker, for it is not sweet at all and creamier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GetInMyBelly 80 Posted November 10, 2011 I do that!! It's yummmmmy. Also try yogurt w/fresh squeezed cucumber juice (no seeds of course).

Happy Camper 266 Posted November 12, 2011 Try chef Dave Fouts out at chef Dave .org (sorry can't yet figure out how to paste the link on my iPad). He is a Chef who has bariatric surgery and gets the stages. My doctors office stocks his cook books but for like $25 for a year you can get a lot from his site. It is an option. I am going to be cooking a few of the recipes and will post. I am 11 days post op now and have stuck with natural applesauce to get the medicine down with, split pea Soup and creamy type Soups. Just had my first scrambled egg yesterday be careful they can get rubbery given it takes us so long to eat but it was good. Also fat free re fried Beans blended in my bullet were the best. I had 3 tbs and was full. Good luck! Sandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
