Pre-Op Liquid Diet ...hitting a wall. Any words of encouragement/ experience or suggestions?

Hey, Everyone!

Happy Monday!

I am currently on day 8 of a two-week full liquid diet and I am hitting a wall. For starters, I am a picky eater and I have been working on that throughout this whole process so I have not been able to dive into all the different broths. I have been drinking about 3-4 protein shakes and day, chicken broth (store bought which is gross), sugar free jello, vitamin water zero, and diet Snapple. I think about drinking my protein shakes and I get nauseous. I am aware part of it is just sucking it up and doing what I have to do but it's so hard. My family is not all that supportive, they are still eating junk food around me all the time, which makes it all that much harder. Do you have any recipe suggestions or something new I should try for the remainder of my pre-op liquid diet? Thanks!

I added pb2 to either chocolate or vanilla protein shakes.
Also peppermint.
Another option I liked was cinnamon.
I didn't care for broth either so I just bought soups and strained them for their broth.
I never found a good yogurt. I was allowed SF pudding.
I also bought some of the protein drinks you can buy on some websites. My favorites were the cran grape and the pink lemonade.
Adding ice to some if the shakes and blending them gave me some small chunks I could chew on [emoji3]
