Pre-OP Liquid diet recipes



Recommended Posts

Yes this is so nice. I got the Hot and Sour and strained all the stuff out and it was soooo yummy. I just finished my first week of three week pre-op diet and doing good. I'm down 8lb.
***My life saver is the sugar free Jello. I add 1 scoop of Unjury Unflavored Protein Powder to a cup of cold Water, mix real good and then add that to my already dissolved jello that is 1 cup hot water. I like firm firm jello so I do 2 pkgs jello to 2 cups water total. One hot to dissolve the jello and one cold for the Protein powder. Mix both and pour into single serve containers. I add the protein powder to make sure I get enough protein in for the day because I have trouble doing three premiere Protein Shakes a day. I really get sick of all the sweet. blah
I also use Unjury chicken flavor Soup protein mix too... this is so good. I'm going to experiment and had it in unflavored Gelatin see how that works. LOL - soup cubes *wink*
I do use broth cubes for convenience, but I don't want to much sodium so I also buy the organic premade broth from Walmart. These are good and less sodium. I am allowed cottage cheese on my pre-op diet so that helps too, cause I can sprinkle with seasonings.
I also am allowed Oikos triple zero yogurt once a day. Those are so yummy. Coffee flavor is my FaV!
For those of you just starting your pre-op. I'm already not feeling as hungry as I used too. I have to remind myself sometimes to make sure I get enough stuff in for the day. Its true once you get past the first four or five days it gets easier. I do miss a crunch now and then. LOL - I did have (bad bad) a few of those Quest protein chips. But just got right back on. This diet is to help us shrink our livers and drop a few pounds to help in lessen any complications during surgery. It also helps us detox and ready our body and minds for the changes its about to go through. Everybody's pre-op diet is different. Just depends on your program and doctors requirements and your current health. I'm scheduled July 12th and so excited and nervous.

Awesome post thanks for the Jello protein tip I had surgery on June 21st and I have been having trouble wanting to eat let alone drink so many sweet shakes. I add ice, nutmeg and cinnamon to the vanilla shake tastes just like eggnog, well almost. Lol. Thanks for the tips have anymore?

What you want to do is get that vanilla ice cream and chocolate cake blend it up real good and some Protein powder in there and there you have it your Protein Shake lol JK




I went ahead and had my Group meeting in person instead of online. So that's done!!! I meet with the nutritionist on the 20th July and I am going to get my surgery date also on the 20th!!!!!! So excited!!! So how many days pre surgery did you have to be on a high protein liquid diet?

Anyone have some pre-op liquid diet recipes they would like to share? I'm 4 days in and already bored with what I am drinking. Thanks in advance!

I'm on day 5, my favorite has been beef broth with a package of McCormick cheesy taco seasoning in it, the pack is like 10 cal per serve and 1 carb, which is ok with my doc and it tastes like liquid taco, I got it at Wal-Mart in the spice isle with all the other packages seasonings

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
