Liquid diet - Questions and sharing your diet!

[jessgnc 167]

It's time to buy my proteins! Huzzah!

This was discussed in my class, but I clearly didn't retain this information. I have two questions on the pre/post op liquid diets. As I recall, liquid was define as anything in a liquid state at room temperature. This included popsicles, broth, shakes, etc.

So question one: Does yogurt count? I'm not sure how I'd define that consistency! I've found a bunch of Greek yogurt flavors (without that I enjoy and would love to put them into rotation during this time if I'm allowed.

Secondly: How many of these per day am I supposed to have? Obviously there's the breakfast/lunch/dinner ones. Do I have a full shake for 2 Snacks a day as well?

For those of you in the pre/post op liquid diet or who remember theirs, I'd love to hear when and what you ate!

Yogurt, can count but it needs to be sugar and fat free or low fat.

Since I am lactose intolerant, I cannot have yogurt, however this is my following regime:

Breakfast: Protein Shake

Snack: 1 Cup of broth

Lunch: Protein shake

Snack: sugar free Popsicle

Dinner: Protein Shake

Snack: Sugar Free Jello

I am allowed cucumbers and non starchy vegetables. So every other day I will have cucumber.

Your Protein Shakes are your meals. The yogurts, jello and popsicles are considered your Snacks.

In between that time is a ton of Water. It takes me about 15 minutes to drink my shake which I do not mind.
