So tired of liquids!



Recommended Posts

I'm hungry but God I have so tired of sweet tasting things and liquids. I have one more week of liquids before soft foods. I would rather not eat than drink this crap anymore ugh.

Ohhh, I'm thinking I'm going to be uttering those exact words when I've had mine done.. Can you have a soft boiled egg or scrambled? I'm a beef eater, and going months without will throw me into massive withdrawls. Good luck!

I mixed unflavored Protein Powder in broths and every cream Soup I could find....chicken beef, hot and sour broth, tortilla soup broth, lobster bisque, Tomato Soup, leek soup, cream of shrimp, asparagus, mushroom, spinach, chicken..... Dilute and strain the cream Soups because they often have little chunks.

I was able to start pureed foods this past Thurs. and I put unflavored Protein powder in everything! I buy the nectar Unflavored Protein Powder. I can't taste it in anything. I have one Premier Protein shake in the morning, which is 30g of protein, and I do pureed foods with protein powder the rest of the day. I also make sure I get my fluids in. I drink Water throughout the day. I am able to get 65 to 70g of protein and 64oz in everyday. I highly recommend unflavored protein powder!

Take care to stir the powder in AFTER you take your liquid off the stove. If the soup gets to a boil the Protein powder will curdle. So heat your soup up, let it cool for a minute, then add in your unflavored powder.

Also, the unflavored powders really do taste like nothing. I use Jarrow labs (I like to put a scoop in my iced coffee), but there are plenty of other brands out there. :)

      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.
