Post-Op - What Were Some of Your Favorite Liquids/Foods

[Angel76 0]

Hi All,

My surgeon requires Clear liquids Post-Op day 1, then:

Full liquids day 2-13

Soft/Pureed days 14-29

What were some of your favorite foods that got you through these stages?

I'm trying to make a food list for these stages so I am prepared ahead of time. I hope this will help curve the hunger and keep me from getting board.

Any insight is greatly appreciated!!

One of the best things I had was I took my chocolate Protein (Injury) added about 6ounces of milk (less milk the thicker it is if you want it like a shake) added ice and then the best of it all Jello Butterschotch flavor surgar free 0 calories to it! It was like eating a Butterfinger! Sometimes after having so many different Protein drinks in the two weeks you have to be on liquids you have to resort to trying new things! Hope this helps you!

The second best thing to have around the house is sugar free popsicles and they have sugar free fudgesicles too!

For some reason, I absolutely loved strained low fat/low sodium cream of chicken Soup. I think that may be my stand by full liquid once I start getting fills.

Bariatric Eating has a tasteless, odorless Protein Powder called PURE, and I think it's awesome. When I was on liquids, I lived off Soup and PURE powder. I'd make chunk-free Soups like Tomato or butternut squash, or I'd throw chunkier soups (like lentil or split pea) in a blender to remove the lumps.
