My family and I will be traveling to upstate NY soon for vacation. Its about a 10 1/2 hour car ride. I was banded on June 25th so will just be starting the mushy stage when we go. I need help to know what to pack in the cooler. I plan on taking protein shakes and water....what else will I need?? Still in liquid phase and go back to dr on July 10th for 2 wk check. New to alot!!

You could pack some yogurt, applesauce, fruit cups. Jello, pudding, deli meats, shredded cheese and your Protein shakes. I was able to eat this stuff on mushie phase so I'm going off of that. Hope this helps. I'm sure there is more but that's all I could think of.

Thanks! Good luck to you.

I've heard that refried beans from Taco Bell is a good option, also fiesta potatoes from Taco Bell (I haven't try the potatoes).

Good Luck!

GNC makes a pretty good protein pudding, they are already made & in cans with pop tops so quite easy to travel with.
