Finally!! I can move past the clear liquid stage. So, anyone have suggestions for some high Protein, full liquids? I do have premier, im going to try that today. Cheers to the next 11 days being in full liquids. Who else?

I was cleared for full liquids after leaving the hospital, my surgeon allows cream Soups strained of all lumps and bumps, cream cereals such as malt-o-meal, and cream of wheat, sf pudding, thick Protein shakes (like premier) and that's about it. I did try to drink premier 1 day post op and it didn't taste the same I hated it, and was extremely too thick to get down. Haven't tried again, let me know how it goes for you! How are you feeling in terms of pain and all that?

I still have the pain in my chest when I drink. My stomach (incision area) only hurts when I go from sitting to standing and standing to sitting. Also when I'm trying to move in bed. How about you?

I'm doing pretty good, I also have a little pain when moving around in bed, coughing, and especially sneezing, but I try to apply pressure while doing these things and it makes it a little better. I don't get pain from drinking just what feels like gas in my chest if I drink too much or too fast, I don't really have much restriction as some I've seen here with getting my liquids. I'm able to finish 20 oz of Water in a little over an hour which I think is odd.

Yay! My mood and energy really improved when I graduated from clear to full liquids. I suggest you find an unflavored protein powder to add it to strained soups. Mix a scoopful of powder with just enough water to make it smooth, then add it to hot liquids (that way it won't get those awful clumps).
