New liquid ideas ! Please



Recommended Posts

Alright so I know it's a mental thing but the past 2 nights I've cooked my husband dinner I've been on a liquid diet now for weeks and I wanted to eat !! Bad ! I took a small bite and chewed the crap out of it . Which really did nothing more then make me hangry . I convinced myself that I could have mashed potatoes (the instant kinds that normally I hate). What the hell is wrong with me ? I mean I've seen a post on here where people had grilled cheese 3 days post op which is super dangerous but I was ravenous last night . Guys I seriously need help what other foods have you guys had in the liquid phase of the diet ? Soup , pudding , Jello , oatmeal is what I've lived on for like 2 weeks . Any suggestions

Look for boxed Soups. I strolled into a Wegman's and found a bunch of Soup and broth cartons that made me weep with joy. Potato leek, Thai chicken Broth, Roasted Bone stock (I know that sounds awful, but oh my sweet baby Jesus, add a dash of hot sauce and it was MAGICAL), etc etc etc. Make sure it's smooth, not too loaded with sugar or carbs, and go to town!

My nutritionist recommended the boxed Soups at Trader Joe's, and I love them. They have a spicy black bean Soup that feels hearty and is absolutely delicious.

I'm a big fan of the Trader Joe's carton Soups, if you have one around you check it out. They usually have a pretty good assortment and some seasonal options to keep it interesting. Beyond that sugar free ice pops were my best friend. Good luck!

I had no problems with it, but I didn't touch it for like a week after surgery and then only used it sparingly until I was 4 weeks out.

I made a black bean Soup that was posted on BariatricEating and it counted as full liquid. Purée one can of drained black Beans, 1/2 salsa and 1 cup of chicken broth and heat. I have a Nutribullet and it was smooth as milk. It kept me full and made me feel like I was eating something.

Kim Kim sauce is one of my addictions. It's a Korean hot sauce that's sweet and spicy (like Sriracha but not as spicy). Enjoy!

I got off track when you said Wegman's. I love them so but there's no Wegman's where I live :*(

Trader Joe's was mentioned above as a good source. Honestly, most good grocery chains will have a solid selection

Celery, cilantro, small piece of chicken, ( skinless no fat) salt and pepper cook it then add the cream of chicken and milk is delicious!! Of course do not eat celery chicken and cilantro that is just for flavoring. You can just sifted

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
