I am so bored of my broth, Popsicles, jello, protein shakes. I feel weak like I need more. What else can I have?? Dr said anything that fits through a straw, just don't use a straw

on my full liquid diet I can have cream of chicken Soup, cream of mushroom, tomato soup, and yougurt. plus i've been making Protein Shakes. My favorite one is vanilla with a banana. hope this helps.

Boil some chicken and veggies together, then strain them for a very delicious soup.

Diet Hot Chocolate has only 25 calories.

Almond and vanilla soy milk are very good.

Boil fresh fruit to make a compote, strain and enjoy.

I mainly stuck to greek yogurt and protein shakes.

Thanks! What type of Greek yogurt did you eat? With fruit? I have chobanis here with fruit on the bottom. I've eaten Fage before too with fruit on the side

I know exactly how you feel. I put my favorite soups in the blender and made sure they were well blended and ate them that way. I may not have been able to chew any thing but I was able to get all the flavor I wanted.

I am currently on full liquids and just starting to feel a bit bored and hungry. The broth really doesn't do it for me, too salty and no taste. So I

bought Campbells and Progressive chicken soups and then strained them. The broth had much more flavor for me that way. I can eat creamed soups but have not tried any yet. My Jello sugar free pudding cup was a great treat! other than that its popsicles, Protein drinks, low calorie gator aide. Oh and after 5 days I finally tonight had a cup of coffee, i have been a coffee freak for 30 years so didn't want to give it up. However I know it dehydrates you, so I am taking a sip of coffee and then a sip of Water.....

I wanted to use the blender but my doctor specifically said no blender he felt it adds air pockets or whatever..so that was out for

me.

I was eating plain Fage but recently I discovered Chobani Champions. It's made for kids but its AWESOME. It's blended which is great because I not supposed to have fruit chunks.

I am so bored of my broth' date=' Popsicles, Jello, Protein shakes. I feel weak like I need more. What else can I have?? Dr said anything that fits through a straw, just don't use a straw [/quote']

I think my date was the same as yours... Dec 3? I can start full liquids tomorrow... We are aloud pudding and yogurt? They don't fit through a straw but that would be so nice:)

Yay for chobani champions! I have those here for my 2yo!! And yup, my full liquid list does say yogurt and pudding. I think I'll try yogurt first!! Yay for some real food And my surgery was dec 3!

*sigh* I just had my surgery Dec 6 and I am absolutely miserable. I'm so tired of yogurt, pudding, jello, & broth. There has got to be something more filling and appetizing out there that still qualifies as a "full liquid". Please Help! :-(

I went and bought an immersion blender just for my liquid diet phase.

I had my surgery on Dec. 4th. I have done the light progresso soup strained to take out the chicken and noodles (which I fed my dog) then put carrots and cellery in mini blender. It made a broth but oh so tasty! :tongue2: Doc said I can have soft meats and very cooked veggies and such on day 15 which is on the 19th! Can't wait!!

However I do like the greek yogurt and I can have low fat cottage cheese now. So that's something different. Also my creamy soups have done very well. I just don't do creamy potatoe and starchy stuff. And I watch to make sure the calories aren't over 500. My personal goal..I usually hit 250-450. Depending on the day.

Hang in there, you are going to be a totally different looking n no time and you will be so proud of yourself!!
