ideas for liquid diet

[Denee 1]

Hubby is wondering what you have had for your liquid diets during the first two weeks. He has been drinking slimfast, SF carnation Breakfast, (I've added sf ice cream to this). Also, Water of course...juices he has drank. Anything else?

hey there and welcome!!..

I got through my first two weeks by making different Soups and just drinking the broths... I made french onion Soup, chicken broth (and changed the herbs, one day with ginger, another with cilantro etc)..

It doesn't have to be boring!!..

I have also been having Jello, frozen fruit juice popcicles, beef broth, chicken broth, vegetable broth. I have also been having a bit of cream style Soups (since there is such variety) but I Water it WAY down to a broth type consistancy.

Vegetable juice is good as well. You could make a Virgin Bloody Mary.

You could also take pudding and add more milk and thin it down as well. You can get a variety of flavors that way as well.

I am six days post-op and have been watering the heck out of everything.

Today I made SF cheesecake pudding. I added extra milk and a little cherry juice to it. Was very thin but taked just like cherry cheesecake.

I don't have much of a sweet tooth so SF treats or protien drinks weren't/aren't in my diet. I lived off a lot of broth! I did make some SF Jello for the clear liquid stage. It's been in my fridge for a month now lol. Think I''ll toss that.

Trader Joe's makes some decent pureed Soups in the box. Campbells V-8 soups aren't bad either. I try to stick to low sodium and just use a salt substitute if it needs a kick though.

I don't know if it counts for liquid but I've read of people watering down mashed potatoes.

I'm not much of a cook I guess you can tell.
