Full liquid diet

[denise08k 12]

I have 1 more week of the full liquid diet. How did you make it through. I am really wanting some else other than Protein Drink, yogurt, jell-o , popsicles and broth. Help please

Hang in there. It is definitely tough. It was the hardest part of the journey for me. But remember the “why”. It made it bearable for me.

Also, I added extracts to my Protein Shakes. Like vanilla. And almond. Lemon even. Mainly to add some variety.

Don’t give up. It makes a difference in more areas than just the pre-op IMO. For me, after surgery, when I was having a hard time getting enough Protein or even when I wanted a sweet, I always went back to the fact that I was able to go two weeks over Christmas on a liquid pre-op diet so I can do this!

Good luck! And stick with it, you’re almost there!!

Just saw your post-op! Congratulations! It will go by fast, that first week, mine was such small amounts of liquids, it got easier every day.
