Is it full liquids or clear liquids? For my full liquids phase I did protein shakes, strained cream soups, and drinkable yogurt. That was about it. The soups were nice.... went and bought pretty much every kind my grocery store sold and tried them all over the course of that phase. My favorites were Campbell's Cream of Shrimp made with 2% milk and Progresso's Chicken Cheese Enchilada.

Clear liquid diet I think but I'll read my information packet to verify

I'm on day 6 of the clear liquid diet! I will tell you that it does get pretty tricky because of the "head hunger" and cravings, but some of the best advice I was given was to just keep in mind that a craving is only a craving, it's not something you actually need! So if you can hold off long enough to just fight it, it will pass! Every single one! Another important thing is to just keep your hands busy with knitting, coloring, writing, etc. also just keep in mind that you can do this and nothing goes into your body unless you put it there and you are absolutely able to do it! It gets easier after like day 5 good luck!!

Sip, sip, sip. Take it slow and steady. I drank broth, mio flavored Water, etc. but only in tiny amounts so I had to stay on top of it not to become dehydrated.
