Help! Last Day Of Clear Liquids....



Recommended Posts

HELP! Last day of clear liquids.... & I am literally drooling every time I open the fridge! I tried to eat some broth, and for the first time I got nauseous! Pretty positive it wasnt "surgery related nausea" (I have had NO NAUSEA) but just the fact that I am SICK of clear liquids! Got about 2 bites of sugar free Jello & I was just sick :-/

PLEASE give me some words of advice to help me make it through the day :-)

Why don't you plan your menu for tomorrow!? Or, get out of the house. Have you tried the Knorr beef or chx stock cups yet? You can find them at Wal-Mart & add one cup to 3 1/2 c of H2O. Boil. Yummmmmm! The Knorr bouillons and stocks are so robust in flavor! Also, the Edy's SF all-fruit popsicles are so good. These are my favorites. I KNOW you can get thru this day...you may need to just get out of the house & start your Christmas shopping early or just find something else to occupy your time.If you journal, today would be a perfect day to wrap up your liquid phase of journal entries. Hope that I am able to help you here!

You are doing FANTASTICAL!!! Keep on going!

You are doing great! Try something different in the Clear Liquids phase that you haven't had yet. If you're sick of broth, try a small Protein Shake, or have the juice from a bowl of egg drop Soup. Try some of that Kellogg's Protein Water or just drink some juice mixed half and half with Water for a different taste. I'd stick with either apple or cranberry myself.

Also, I am now really liking the Mio drops Strawberry/watermelon flavor. It's not so sweet that it's cloying, but it changes up the taste of water. And, since you can add as much as you like, you can adjust the taste to your preference.

Good luck!! :)

I think what is killing me the most is having to cook for my 2 kids. For Breakfast they had eggs & Breakfast sausage- i was DYING to steal a bite. I took a teeny tiny nibble off the end, got the taste then spit the teeny tiny piece out LOL- but it cured my craving! So far for lunch, they are having chicken nuggets & chopped fruit- i want so badly to endulge in a piece of pineapple & watermelon. GRRR!

Any one of you ladies to the "thickened liquid" stage? THATS TOMORROW :-)

      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.
