Liquid Temperatures



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I will be post-op in less than 24 hours and wondered what the general consensus was on the temperature of your beverages? Intolerances with cold tepid warm or hot? Thanks ????

Good luck on your surgery. As far as liquids all I remember was ice chips.

Room temp is best. I'm day 3 post op and ice chips I suck on til Water is warm before swallowing it. Cold can cause cramping.

Cold temperatures mute flavor which is a good thing when it comes to Protein Shakes. I make mine in a blender with ice and frozen fruit added to the powder. They look like a Slurpee.

I drink both with no issues. I ended up with room temp liquids because it takes me a while to drink everything but I prefer cold or hot as intended!

      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.
