New liquid ideas ! Please



Recommended Posts

Alright so I know it's a mental thing but the past 2 nights I've cooked my husband dinner I've been on a liquid diet now for weeks and I wanted to eat !! Bad ! I took a small bite and chewed the crap out of it . Which really did nothing more then make me hangry . I convinced myself that I could have mashed potatoes (the instant kinds that normally I hate). What the hell is wrong with me ? I mean I've seen a post on here where people had grilled cheese 3 days post op which is super dangerous but I was ravenous last night . Guys I seriously need help what other foods have you guys had in the liquid phase of the diet ? Soup , pudding , Jello , oatmeal is what I've lived on for like 2 weeks . Any suggestions

Look for boxed Soups. I strolled into a Wegman's and found a bunch of Soup and broth cartons that made me weep with joy. Potato leek, Thai chicken Broth, Roasted Bone stock (I know that sounds awful, but oh my sweet baby Jesus, add a dash of hot sauce and it was MAGICAL), etc etc etc. Make sure it's smooth, not too loaded with sugar or carbs, and go to town!

My nutritionist recommended the boxed Soups at Trader Joe's, and I love them. They have a spicy black bean Soup that feels hearty and is absolutely delicious.

I'm a big fan of the Trader Joe's carton Soups, if you have one around you check it out. They usually have a pretty good assortment and some seasonal options to keep it interesting. Beyond that sugar free ice pops were my best friend. Good luck!

I had no problems with it, but I didn't touch it for like a week after surgery and then only used it sparingly until I was 4 weeks out.

I made a black bean Soup that was posted on BariatricEating and it counted as full liquid. Purée one can of drained black Beans, 1/2 salsa and 1 cup of chicken broth and heat. I have a Nutribullet and it was smooth as milk. It kept me full and made me feel like I was eating something.

Kim Kim sauce is one of my addictions. It's a Korean hot sauce that's sweet and spicy (like Sriracha but not as spicy). Enjoy!

I got off track when you said Wegman's. I love them so but there's no Wegman's where I live :*(

Trader Joe's was mentioned above as a good source. Honestly, most good grocery chains will have a solid selection

Celery, cilantro, small piece of chicken, ( skinless no fat) salt and pepper cook it then add the cream of chicken and milk is delicious!! Of course do not eat celery chicken and cilantro that is just for flavoring. You can just sifted

      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!!
