Yay! I start my full liquid week tomorrow (week 2 post op), I'm going to the store and wondering if you guys could give me any ideas on what to buy or kinds of Soups I can eat... Excited about this 2nd week!

Full liquid just means that you're still on the same liquids as the first week, but you can add watery Protein shakes, runny Cream of Wheat/Malto Meal, milk, and s/f pudding and ice cream. That's about it. No Soup, unless it's blenderized AND strained (no bean/veggie skin etc). Any Soup with lots of Protein (bean/pea), or even make your own. Pureed/strained lentils and canned soy Beans are plentiful protein sources. You can add n/f or 1% milk and/or Water to anything to thin it out. Don't eat anything that it too thick, or you may be sorry that you did!

Sorry to break it to you, but your body is still healing and can only handle watery stuff still. Didn't your surgeon give you the list? When you get into the puree phase, you'll have more variety, but believe me, it's difficult to even eat that at times! :)

Full liquid usually includes shakes but call your surgeons and ask. We pay them all this money to be there for us!

My full liquids include Protein Shakes, cream Soups, applesauce, cottage cheese, sf pudding, sf Popsicles, sf frozen yogurt....I actually was also able to get down string cheese at this point because its a soft cheese.

I went to my post op yesterday and I got no help from the nurse practitioner.. When I asked about this phase of the diet because the info they gave me has no info, she said to read the "list" they gave me because its self explanatory... uuugghhh. So frustrating!

      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.
