Post Op Full Liquid Diet?



Recommended Posts

I am still on my pre op 2 week liquid diet and have 10 days to go. However I like to plan ahead and I want to have everything ready for when I return home. I have 2 days of clear liquid (day of surgery and day after) then days 3-15 are "full liquid". Any suggestions for full liquid. These shakes aren't wonderful but it's definitely mind over matter :)

Thanks for the help!!!

Time is ticking slow in Texas...

What I have discovered is that everything is sweet. The shakes, sugar free Popsicles even the liquid pain killer. Sweet, sweet, sweet. I was so happy to have cream of chicken Soup. I couldn't eat much that is for sure but it was just so nice to have something other than sweet. I am ordering the Unjury Chicken soup Monday.

Is the Unjury chicken soup broth? I am struggling with variety now because I can't stomach broth!?!?

It is called Unjury chicken Soup on their website. The reviews I have read are pretty positive.

No' date=' I also did some Isopure, unflavored Protein powder mixed in clears, Jello, etc. but the broth tasted most like real food.[/quote']

I was told on the full liquids that I could do stuff like thinned out Soups and yogurt as well... Thanks for responding, I am 10 days till surgery and so excited. Really inspired by everyone on this site.. Thanks

You might want to check with your surgeon, but mine said it was ok for me to have oatmeal during my post op full liquid diet. He just said that I have to make sure it is really creamy, not thick. I add Protein to my oatmeal as well. I can also have pudding, yogurt, and creamy Soups.< /p>

I'm addicted to the creamy Tomato by Campbell's Soup on the go. It's on 5 g fat in the container. You can add Protein to it also. Very good

      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.
