Jess1982c 0 Posted November 22, 2008 So I am finishing up on the 5th day of my pre-op liquid diet. My doctor requires us to be on it for the 2 weeks before surgery. While I am doing well (have already lost 10lbs!), I am SO BORED with this food. I need recipes! I've got the shakes down, I would just love a good hot and healthy cream of something recipe! Any ideas??? I would love to hear from everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michee 2 Posted November 22, 2008 My pre op was Optifast shakes, and vegetables. I strongly discourage you to vary from what the doc has recommended. Soups etc are usually full of carbs and salt. The shakes I was on were "balanced" Meal Replacement, I suspect yours are as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jess1982c 0 Posted November 22, 2008 Well I can have soups.. as long as they are liquid/milk consistency... so I am not straying at all, I am just looking for some Soup recipes, so I can try something different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gentylwind 1 Posted November 23, 2008 Look on www.recipezaar.com. I made a lot of broths from there before my surgery and have had fantastic oxtail broth today (the day after my surgery). I am sure you will find good creamy Soups there that you can make with either skim milk or fat free evaporated milk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
