April 30, 201412 yr K I'm a week out of surgery. I am still on liquids and getting bored. Any fantastic creations?
April 30, 201412 yr When do you move up? I'm full liquids with a little purée thrown in till Friday. Then full on purée. I bought Lipton noodle soup and drink that broth. It has a different flavor and the noodles sink so no worries there. Jello? My husband made some the other day for his son that has evaporated milk in it to make it creamy. I didn't have any but they thought it was good.
April 30, 201412 yr Author I can have anything that could be drank through a straw. So I can have purée I guess but not real sure what to make? I've had pudding and jello and broth lol. I'd like to expand my repertoire.
April 30, 201412 yr Author How's it going? I feel pretty good. Are you hungry at all? I'm not hungry but miss eating...I know it's mental.
May 1, 201412 yr I'm good. I made my family pizza for dinner so I took some ricotta cheese, sauce and a little mozzarella put it in a ramekin and baked it. It was so good. I could only eat half but a few hrs later I ate the rest. This is technically a purée, but I am moving up Friday anyway.

I'm on my pre op diet right now but will try this after surgery. Yum.
May 1, 201412 yr If ur on anything u can drink thru a straw, why r u limited to broth? I was on full liquids for 4 weeks. I had 1/2 cup of Progresso Tomato Basil soup (yummy, btw) or Andersons Split Pea about every 3-4 hrs. Warm stuff fills me up more than pudding or Jello. If I never see another cup of split pea soup, it'll be too soon! I was also allowed soupy cream of wheat/malt o meal and yogurt. Good luck to u!
May 1, 201412 yr That sounds delicious! I'm on my pre op diet right now but will try this after surgery. Yum. Im on 14days and I am always hungry, I want food so bad its not funny my doctor said when I moved two puree food I can have chicken salad egg salad tuna and things like that it's stressing me out so bad I feel like I have to go back to smoking
May 1, 201412 yr I had surgery on Tuesday the 29th, and I can only do liquids for 2 weeks. I've been having broth, popsicles, and hot chocolate that is specifically from my doctor's office. Everything still catches and hurts in my chest going down and I'm worried about getting my ounces in.
May 1, 201412 yr Surgery was the 23rd and I was on clear liquids for the first week and full liquids this week and next. Full liquids meant soups! Cream of anything soups :-) also I've had a few bites of yogurt and some cheddar cheese. I have the same problem with gas in my chest every single time I ingest anything. I'm losing my mind. Because of that I'm seriously struggling to get in 40oz a day of everything combined. -MM Edited May 1, 201412 yr by MammaMac
May 1, 201412 yr My surgery was the 25th and have been having the same problems. My friend said it will pass that the gas on your stomach causes it . She had the surgery and now snacks on meals all day and looks awesome.
