Full Liquid Stage



Recommended Posts

Hi there! I’m going on 2 weeks post gastric bypass and I wanted to see if anyone else tried different foods. I know that there are many plans out there but right now I’m on the full liquid diet, next week is puréed foods. I was wondering if anyone tried Soups puréed them and thinned them out. My plan is the usual

Protein Shakes, broths, carnation instant bfast, cream based soups. Has anyone tried a Soup from a supermarket that they make in house with chunks, puréed, thinned it out with broth and put through a strainer? I guess my question is, is any soup ok and not just cream based? As long as there are no chunks?

I have been on full liquids for a week. I made a cheesy cauliflower soup and it was amazing. The first time I made it I did not blend it enough so it was a little harder to eat. Second time I made sure to blend it a bunch. If the soup has chunks of meat I think that would be off limits. Besides that I think as long as you blend it a bunch or strain it you should be ok. Just remember it’s still a liquid diet not a purée diet. I have had cottage cheese and yogurt already. Technically soft foods but my dietician said it was ok. My dietician said recently someone came in with pain and nausea. Turned out a piece of Tomato skin got caught on a staple!! They had to go in and remove it.

I remember the rule was anything you can sip through a straw, BUT DON'T SIP ANYTHING THROUGH A STRAW!!

I pureed vegetable Soup and strained it - so yummy, also black bean soup.

My doctor encourages drinking with a straw! I’ve noticed most people have been told not to use straws but my doc says it can help with drinking slowly.

      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.
