So for my surgery I have to go on a two week liquid diet. This consist of sugar free jello, broth, sugar free popsicles (which who doesn't want these in the middle of winter), protein shakes, and 1 protein bar a day. My first protein shake I made was vanilla. The consistency and smell made me gag, no gonna lie. So I doubled the water and I think it is watered down enough for me to handle. I am taking a sip of it and chasing it with water. I am on my second sugar free jello which (oddly enough) not that filling. I know it sounds like I am whining...because I am. BUT I feel like venting it out on my blog is better than taking it out of someone else around me. I have chopped my protein bar into three pieces so I can have one with breakfast lunch and dinner. I feel like this way I can "eat" something with each meal. It is only 10:30 but I am already looking forward to my broth.
Well day 1 was fun..... So I ended up trying a hot chocolate protein drink and it was really good. The vanilla shakes are from the devil I swear.. I have also tried a chocolate and a mocha protein drink and they are really good. I added bouillon to my broth and it makes it taste even better. I am still loving my jello! I did end up have a couple bites of a steak tip. I was so friggen hungry. But now that I have found the right protein drinks and the right way to eat the little that I can I feel much better. I got this!!
