Anybody Have Suggestions?



Recommended Posts

I have really enjoyed "Better than Bouillon". It comes in a paste, hardly any perservatives, you can make it as strong or weak as you want. There are organic options. Flavors I have at home here are: Beef, chicken, Veggie and Mushroom. Good Luck!! Another thought is making your own with veggies you love.

Make your own its really easy:-

Chicken/turkey – either a whole one or pieces but you need the pieces to have bones in it.

Vegetables – onions and leeks to start

Cover the meat and the veg in Water you can get vegetable powder/stock cubes and throw a couple of tablespoons in.

Leave that to boil them simmer for a few hours when its done drain the juice into another pot/baking bowl/whatever over a sieve to collect all the veg meat and bones.

Then de bone/skin/fat/crap from the meat and put the meat back in the juice, pull out what veg you can salvage and throw that back in.

From this pint you are free to add other veg any you like its up to you, and you can add any other seasonings you may wish to add.

Put back on bring to the boil again then simmer for another hour or so.

Soup is done!

From here you ladle off some broth/all the broth and section it how you wish it can be frozen.

Then you either serve the meat and veg up to your family you can add Pasta to it and maybe some cream cheese or another sauce cook it in a pie so it’s a chicken and veg pie etc

Or you can section up and freeze it for your pureed or solid food stages.

You can even blend the meat and veg plus stock to section off for your full liquid stage.

      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.
