Exactly what is included in full liquids



Recommended Posts

Just wondering what is included. I cannot seem to stomach the shakes anymore. All of a sudden they leave a terrible taste in my mouth. I tried cream of chicken and wasn't that impressed although I could tolerate if need be. Just wandering if there is anything else.

Most doctors provide a list of what they consider part of the "full liquid" phase. For my doctor, it included anything that was liquid at room temperature without chunks - so pudding and Jello (sugar-free) were included as well as greek yogurt. Any Soups without noodles or vegetables or other solid chunks, and all broths, bouillons, etc. and of course the Protein shakes and drinks.

When I got tired of the sweet, I found that I could add unflavored Protein to bouillon by mixing it with warm Water in my bullet blender before stirring it into the hot bouillon. That was a nice change from the sweet and cold stuff for me.

You should consult your surgeon or nutritionist if you weren't provided a list. For me full liquids included Protein Shakes, yogurt, and strained cream Soups. You need to tough it out with the Protein shakes or find one you can palate. They will be your primary source of protein until you are on solid foods and maybe even beyond that. It is critical for you to get all of your protein in. Especially while you are healing.

The coconut Isopure is my favorite. So far they've all been tolerable for me. Just, um, don't smell them.

Like you, I hit a point where eating the same old Protein was distasteful to me. So today I went to one of those cafeteria places with the good old fashioned food. I got a small container of the juice from the green Beans. Even watered down it tasted so darn good. I only had a few sips. Going to try adding Protein powder tomorrow.

Try Bariatric Choice liquid Protein fruit drink concentrate! I couldnt stomach the daily chalky Protein shakes, most of them made me nauseated. The Liquid Protein comes in berry, blue raspberry, pomegranate and some other flavor..its a liquid packet u mix with Water. The berry smells like a jolly rancher and tastes pretty good especially if u put a little fruit punch mio drops in it! I am definitely going to order more from Amazon. I think its 15 grams of protein per packet too

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
