Surviving the liquid stage

[Tamiz1067 10]

I'm having a hard time with this...I'm already sick of broth & I've been getting headaches & a lot of moodiness...HELP

broth can get tiring. I mostly did Protein Shakes made with Water because my liquid diet was pretty strict. But you just have to stick it out. How long is yours?

It sucks, I hear ya. You just have to power through it as best u can, knowing it's only temporary helps. I'd like to know too how long you are on liquids. I was on a preop diet then 1 week clears and am nearing the end of my 1 week full liquids.

I am on full and go back Monday for advance to soft foods. The full liquids give you more to play with...Me and Tomato Soup have become best friends.

I am on it for 2 weeks but. I'm running out of options & I have no strength & keep getting headaches..I go tomorrow for my 1st appt since surgery & I'm hoping he puts me on purees..I'm just tired of being weak & getting headaches

Gatorade or coconut Water might help.

My savior during the first 2 weeks was creamed Soup cooked and then strained this opened me up to many options. The headaches maybe dehydration or withdrawal from caffeine. It will pass but definitely tell your surgeon. Good luck with you follow up appt.

Hi there. Full liquids got old fast. I dreamt of food I felt like I was never going to eat real food again. I was on full liquids for 2 weeks.

Suggestion: don't just eat broth. My doctor allowed any puréed Soup. I just had to purée it then strain it. There are so many great Soups out there. I got progressive brand but on the soup isle there were all kinds of bisques. My absolute favorite is Amy's, Thai soup. I had a new soup every day.

I was also aloud to have SF pudding and Popsicle.

Good luck!!!

Can't you have unsweet tea..just buy the Decaf kind

[dfwtxmissy 108]

I did...can't stand it...I am sure it's in my head...but I can't even drink it right now...makes me gag.
