Full liquid question



Recommended Posts

Hey.. I am 7 days postop and I'm on full liquids.. I am so tired of the cream Soups and broths from a can.. I love the taste of ramen noodles so I thought what if I took the seasoning pack and mixed that with Water and had that as broth? ? Anyone have suggestions if that's ok to do or not? Or do you have any other food choices for a full liquid diet? I'm new to this site and just trying feel this out .. Thx

I did the same thing last night. Regular broth wasn't cutting it. My husband made himself some ramen noodles and gave me the bowl first so I could have some of the broth. It was heavenly.

I did that for broth a lot. A case of ramen is cheap, tossed the noodles and didn't give it another thought, immensely tastier than plain old chicken broth.

I'm sure that should be fine. I just talked to my nut today and she said clear broths were fine. I have heard other people straining other types of Soup for the better flavored broth too. :)

We bought a ton of vegetables and Soup bones, put them in the electric roaster (for a lot, or crock pot for less). (We actually roasted the vegetables with some seasonings to bring out the flavor before we put the crock pot.) Covered with Water and cooked for 2 hours on high then 10 hours on low. Strained away all of the vegetables and have some wonderful broth. Have done with both chicken and beef. I was not a vegetable eater before starting this endeavor and am now loving the veggie flavored homemade broth. I am 5 days out from surgery and have been trying this with various other "liquified" strained Soups (with unflavored Protein powder) to supplement the sweet shakes.< /em>

If you like the taste of ramen noodles, I'd highly recommend getting some Unjury chicken Soup. I've always said that it tases like chicken ramen & you get some very high quality Protein too.

"Forget the Ramen packages...mix together a dry onion Soup mix envelope, a dry veggie soup mix and two or three chicken bullion cubes (smushed up) brew it like tea and he will drink it like it was Bourbon!! Much cheaper than those expensive ( ;) ) packages. "

Found that on another forum

OTR sleever.. Where can I buy the injury chicken Soup? I've read that on other threads but didn't know what it was? Thanks everyone for your thoughts :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
