Full liquids



Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm 2 1/2 weeks into my all liquid phase. Only another 1 1/2 weeks before I get to the puréed stage. I found organic creamy Soups that are very good, no chunks. They are just creamy. The fat, sugar, and Protein are acceptable to my NUT. I have had creamy sweet potato, creamy sweet corn, and creamy portabello mushroom. No straining the Soup since there is nothing to strain. I have also made a version of gazpacho soup. It is a little thinner than normal, but I could drink it through a straw if I had to. Hope these suggestions help.

I had a very hard time getting any liquids in for the first few days too. Something that works for me is diluted white grape juice and sf Popsicles. I was served diluted juice while in the hospital which turned out to be the easiest thing to get down.

I've posted three Soups in the recipe sharing section that are home-made, high Protein soups with some flavor that we've been enjoying. A creamy shrimp bisque, a lobster bisque made differently, and tonight I posted a chicken and mushroom Soup. Without the soups, we would be so heartily sick of the Protein shakes! We alternate between the shakes and soups all day.

I have also done two easy bean soups. One was black bean soup from Panera, thinned and puréed. The other was red Beans (no rice) from Popeyes, thinned and puréed.

Just started my full liquid phase today. Anyone else in this stage? My nutritionist said cream based Soup is okay but it notes it should be 98% fat free and made with skim milk. I'm having a tough time finding one that meets those requirements. Anyone else have any ideas of things they ate during this stage that was acceptable. So far pudding and yogurt have been My nutrition for the day. I'm going to try a Protein shake this afternoon.

I'm currently in the full liquid stage and I've found that the progresso light Soups are awesome.. I open the can and use a small strainer to strain out all of the chunks and I eat the juice/broth.. It's great

      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.
