Liquid stage question



Recommended Posts

I don't see why not..... its just not a "clear" liquid, so ask your doctor at what phase you can drink it.

Cindy,

Some liquids/foods that our surgeons recommend are really a trial -N- error for each individual.

Be careful with the V8 juice.. tomato's are SO acidic and could cause you discomfort. You may have NO problems with it, and then you may...

try waiting a good week to test this one to your new tummy, k?

Another good thing to keep on hand during this phase is s/f pop sickles. It gives you the chance to CHEW - which is something we start grieving for after 2 or 3 days of liquids only. :(

cindyn,

Can you give me some ideas on what you're stocking up on. broth, Jello, etc. Anything else. Protien shakes? Let me know. I just started thinking about this tonight. I am being banded on Sept. 5th.

Another issue I was thinking about is cooking for the family. I told my dh that I won't be doing much cooking b/c it may be a problem for me. I'll be on liquids while everyone else is eating the steak I cooked for them. I don't think that may work for the first few weeks.

Let me know.

I would think V-8 would be good, but not until you are past the clear liquid stage. I actually didn't stock up on very much. Mostly a little juice, Jello, chicken broth. I did buy some Protein shakes pre-surgery to taste them. Some I didn't like very much (YUK).

You aren't going to be laid up for very long. You will be able to get yourself to the grocery store for what you are craving.

And EM1125 - I pre-cooked some meals and froze them for my DH. Actually, cooking really wasn't much of a problem. You will probably be just fine.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
