Great Tip For Those On Pre Op Diets!

My Aunt told me to make up a small box of sugar free jello, and drink it while its warm! Its very satisfying for those inbetween meal hunger pangs..20 Cal and 4 grams of protien! I bought the store brand jello for Like 50¢ a piece. Also will be good for when you are on your clear liquid phase! Make up the jello, pour a few ounces of the warm mix in a glass and refrigerate the rest for a classic.jello snack later! Enjoy :)

    @Benjamin- I will keep that in mind when I am post op and at the full foods stage. I was sharing this for those who are pre op and on a liquid diet for a length of time, & finding themself hungry

  • Somewhat off topic but related to drinking jello as a liquid form, it also is very good for hair and nail health. Not sure if anyone knew that or cares. Just throwing it out there that it's super help

  • I agree, if you can find even more positive things for a reason to do something then it may make it even more "enticing" so to speak and help be a motivator

Nice! If you want to up the protein, you can add a bit of unflavored protein powder...so long as it's not too hot (or it will clump). I bought unjury and I noticed it was one of their recipes!

Ive seen about adding the unflavored protein to jello and such, but I have never heard of drinking it before it sets! Its a Nice change from broth and protein shakes, and the like. :) good advice, thanks!

Agreed...never thought of that either. Always fun to find something new to try!

Absolutely! Thanks for mentioning it for those who may not know! All the more reason to eat/drink jello!
