Exactly what is included in full liquids



Recommended Posts

Just wondering what is included. I cannot seem to stomach the shakes anymore. All of a sudden they leave a terrible taste in my mouth. I tried cream of chicken and wasn't that impressed although I could tolerate if need be. Just wandering if there is anything else.

Most doctors provide a list of what they consider part of the "full liquid" phase. For my doctor, it included anything that was liquid at room temperature without chunks - so pudding and Jello (sugar-free) were included as well as greek yogurt. Any Soups without noodles or vegetables or other solid chunks, and all broths, bouillons, etc. and of course the Protein shakes and drinks.

When I got tired of the sweet, I found that I could add unflavored Protein to bouillon by mixing it with warm Water in my bullet blender before stirring it into the hot bouillon. That was a nice change from the sweet and cold stuff for me.

You should consult your surgeon or nutritionist if you weren't provided a list. For me full liquids included Protein Shakes, yogurt, and strained cream Soups. You need to tough it out with the Protein shakes or find one you can palate. They will be your primary source of protein until you are on solid foods and maybe even beyond that. It is critical for you to get all of your protein in. Especially while you are healing.

The coconut Isopure is my favorite. So far they've all been tolerable for me. Just, um, don't smell them.

Like you, I hit a point where eating the same old Protein was distasteful to me. So today I went to one of those cafeteria places with the good old fashioned food. I got a small container of the juice from the green Beans. Even watered down it tasted so darn good. I only had a few sips. Going to try adding Protein powder tomorrow.

Try Bariatric Choice liquid Protein fruit drink concentrate! I couldnt stomach the daily chalky Protein shakes, most of them made me nauseated. The Liquid Protein comes in berry, blue raspberry, pomegranate and some other flavor..its a liquid packet u mix with Water. The berry smells like a jolly rancher and tastes pretty good especially if u put a little fruit punch mio drops in it! I am definitely going to order more from Amazon. I think its 15 grams of protein per packet too

      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.
