Full Liquids... Suggestions



Recommended Posts

I have pudding, cream Soups... what else? Not that hungry but maybe if something seemed appealing enough I may have the urge to eat. Right now I am just sipping on my Protein Shakes. Thanks. I suppose the next phase is pureed? Not sure about that either.

I have a Blendtec blender and during full liquids I blended everything into full liquids. Supposed to use a strainer to get out the chunks, but with this Atomic blender there was nothing left behind in the strainer. ;)

We always called it Yuck-in-a-cup, LOL. Here's our episode on that very subject - let me know if it helps!

My aftercare binder says I can have cream of wheat (very thin), sugar free applesauce, and thinned greek yogurt during full liquids. I'm still 4 weeks out but I'm stocking up on non-perishables so that I won't worry about it after surgery.

All good suggestions. I always opted for items that gave me the most nutritional value. Greek yogurt was and still is a staple. Though I didnt' have to worry too much about my Protein intake at that point. 2 shakes gave me all I needed for the day. Purees can be just about anything. I blended chicken salad, meatballs, egg salad. I used an emersion blender, and I could only get in a couple of spoonfuls at first. Check out theworldaccordingtoeggface.com and emilybites.com . Both sites have a bunch of recipes for all stages of your diet.

Good luck!

      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.
