Any way to spice things up a bit lol. broth Jello and popsicles Are becoming very boring since that’s all I have had for 3 weeks almost.
I’m not even hungry honestly but the hot dogs my kids are eating are making my mouth drool, and I don’t even like hot dogs 🤢 lol

Aah ok. Some people like to have broths from pho places because it is so flavorable. Or the broth from egg drop Soup.

I feel your pain. We were busy and I told my wife to just grab a pizza for the kids. I drank beef broth. The liquids are not filling at all just move right through the sleeve. Like you I am not really hungry but I would like to eat something 😂

I’m suppose to start purée Tuesday I can’t wait! I never want to eat beef or chicken broth again lol.

I was thinking about making some pho broth and my own stocks so I can have a variety of tastes. But when I cut veggies for stock I tend to nibble on them.

Has anyone else come up with good homemade broths or Soups that are different than plain broth?

I am post op week 2 from the sleeve....I want something solid so bad, I could cry! I don’t know how much longer I stand Protein Shakes, Soups and water!!

Millie’s sipping broth (in Bariatric Pal Store and on amazon) are nice shortcuts to flavorful, interesting broths! They’re like teabags for “curry spice” “Thai lemongrass” and such. I like the spicy tortilla one a lot.

I also purchased several skinny syrups from skinnymixes.com to add into Protein Shakes and other liquids. Love the mint chocolate chip and raspberry especially! I also bought a sampler pack of Protein powders from BP site so I’d have variety there as well.

Edited to add:

I’m two weeks post-op and have been on liquids only since 7/16, so I feel your pain! I won’t be starting puréed foods until 8/20!
