I am post op day 7 and I am getting bored with my liquids. I am hungry but it is manageable. But I am not sure how I will make it through another week of eating liquids only if I don't get some new things in!

Help!

I had sugar free popsicles and Orange sherbert which save my life. I bought some crab soup and just drank the broth.

Definitely have had popsicles and fudgesicles (SF of course) and my fav soups strained...I even had some plain SF ice cream that I just let get really soft.

I made those instant mash potatoes (the flavored idahoan ones) and added extra extra water to make them reallllyy liquidy rather than normal thick mashed potatoes. I didn't over eat them though...just used as a separation from the normal plain liquids I was getting bored with. Kind of my treat Also, tomato soup was one of my favorites and still go back to it when I have one of those days where my band is reallllly tight. For me, tomato soup is usually thicker which fills me up more than regular soups.

Any soups, yogurts, jello, protein shakes are good!

My doctor did not consider yogurt or potatos a liquid. Those are mushies.

For full liquid I really liked Pacific brand sweet red pepper/tomato soup. I added Mrs Dash unsalted flavorings before heating. The herbs reconstituted and gave the soup a great taste.

As a nurse I can tell you yogurt and pudding are considered a full liquid. My doctor has them listed as full liquids as well. The yogurt cannot have any particles of fruit in it, so I found the toddler/baby yogurts to work. I also got creative with protein shakes that I still drink. My favorite one was 1/2 small banana, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, 1 cup skim milk and scoop protein. sweeten to taste and blend with mixer until all liquified.
