Ideas for liquid diet?



Recommended Posts

So, I was banded on the 3rd, and am feeling much better. Had a couple of rough days... exhaustion, soreness, etc...but am now on the road to being 100%. I am trying to find some liquids that will satisfy me. I tried Carnation Instant Breakfast (with Splenda) and I love it. Have one around each meal time, and drink sips of Water and fruit juice in between; as well as a sugar free popsicle once a day. I really don't feel any really bad hunger yet.

Does anyone else out there have any other suggestions for good tasing liquid ideas? I have seen that some others here are already able to eat real food on their liquid diet phase...unfortunately, my doctor didn't say I could do that, so...liquids for 2 weeks for me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!:incazzato:

Sounds like you have it covered , except for broth. I also did applesauce after a few days. Check with your doc on that one tho. Donna

Check with your doc for specifics because some have different opinions as to what is considered a liquid. I think my doc was pretty easy going, not too strict, but during liquids I was allowed to have:

Yogurt

Yogurt smoothies

Jello

pudding

Cream of ----- Soups ( i loved the cream of potato...i would puree it so that the little chunks of potato became liquid)

Campbell's "Soup at hand"

juice

Popsicles

Low carb slim fast

That's all I can think of off the top of my head and I feel like I'm missing something.....but hope this helps.

      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.
