Phase 2 diet ideas



Recommended Posts

So I got the ok from my doctor to begin the phase 2 "full" liquid diet for 2 weeks. The list I received of approved foods is pretty vague: -soups( blended and strained)

-milk/almond/soy

-cream of wheat

-protein shakes

Looking for a more specific list of foods, so please share what you had or what you are having while on phase 2!

Phase 2 is full liquid...no foods. That's why the options are so limited.

Full liquids are any Fluid you can't see through such as milk, shakes, gravies, juices with pulp, sherbet, etc. Also, processed cereals such as thinned-out oatmeal and cream of wheat count.

I'd stay away from the cereals and juices since the sugar content may or may not cause your weight loss to stall/plateau.

I have one more day of Phase 2 . . . most days I have a Protein Shake (yuk) and Protein Water, about a half a container of yogurt (Oikos triple zero), and some cream Soup. I may have slightly violated the plan by blending a non-cream soup, a beef vegetable one, but I was so thrilled to have something not sweet . . . Many people are happy with broth but I found I couldn't stand it. I also made some pudding with a couple scoops of Protein Powder added. I've made shakes with the powder and 1 percent milk, but today, on the advice of a friend, I bought some unsweetened coconut almond milk to try with the powder. Might be interesting? Oh, and also had an occasional popsicle or fudgesicle.

Oh of course! I should have clarified better, I'm looking more for reccomendations for different brands of Protein Drinks (I'm on premier protein), creamed Soups or Soup recipes that tasted decent, or even just an idea of what your daily liquid diet looks like (meal plan wise).

I had seen a recipe for combining Protein Drink and pudding mix that I was actually excited to try, but unfortunately I'm not allowed yogurts or puddings until phase 3 - at least according to my doctors guide :(

What cream Soups did you have? Just mushroom and Tomato? I was hoping to make different soups like cauliflower or roasted carrot and "creaming" it in the blender but not sure if that would be allowed lol

      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.
