What do you "eat" during liquid stage?



Recommended Posts

Trying to plan. Is Protein Shakes and broth all you have for liquid stage? Am I missing anything else that is nutritious? Thanks!

Is it full liquids? I could have thinned/strained Soups. So I would get a variety of soups and puree them, thin with milk or Water and strain if necessary. I also thinned SF pudding. I would thin anything to a cream of Soup type consistency and a little more if necessary.

Clear liquids: Water, sf Jello, Protein mixes with almond milk or soy, diluted apple juice, sf Popsicles, broth.

Full liquids: all above, Tomato Soup, strained soup... I tried to eat liquified (in my ninja) chilli tonight but my stomach didn't like because too spicy, yogurts, sf pudding thinned out etc

I only had one day of Clear Liquids, in the hospital. After that, four weeks of full liquids. Things I had:

Protein Shakes, broth (usually with added unflavored protein), Unjury chicken Soup Protein, skim milk, Hood Calorie Countdown nonfat milk, light juice or juice diluted 50/50 with Water (my favorite was Ocean Spray light cranberry - nice and tart, not too sweet), low sodium V-8, Decaf tea (usually I had chai tea and added a half scoop of vanilla Protein Powder and a splash of unsweetened vanilla almond milk for a vanilla chai protein latte), sugar free popsicles, G2 Natural, Powerade Zero, GNC Live Well Sport drink, Atkins Advantage shakes (I loved the Cafe Caramel - had to limit myself to small quantities of that as the numbers aren't very good), and of course, lots and lots of water.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
