I can’t take it. I can’t consume one more chemical food-like substance! Protein shakes... blah! The thought of them make me nauseous. Creamed soup? Gross, SF pudding? Why? There is no nutritional value.

I’m 11 days post op. Feel fantastic! I’m getting in my water, and I can drink normally. I’m on full liquids but all I really want is plain water. I have had some Greek yogurt, but two bites and I’m full. I’m lucky to finish the single serving container in a day.

Just frustrated I guess... I just want some cheese, chicken salad, and green beans, lol

Hahaha you are the kinder gentler poster.

Mine goes more like...yep. It's hard. Super hard. The debil hard.

Now put on your big girl panties and the only way through it is through it.

It's a right of passage. You will be through it sooner than you know.

Options from @Orchids&Dragons are mix Fairlife milk FF with a spoon of yogurt, a scoop of unsweetened protein powder, some frozen fruit and maybe peanut butter powder and ice. Mix it up in the blender and if necessary strain it to get any fiber or seeds out. Enjoy.

Same thing with soups. Make homemade soup, blend it, thin it down with homemade broth, strain if necessary. Enjoy.

Also, mixing Premier Protein with coffee and ice or just black coffee makes it VERY palatable. I still love both hot and iced coffee!

I disagree about premier and coffee. It’s VERY unpalatable. Appreciate the suggestion though

Then rant away. And good luck to you.

But I do feel sorry for you.

I'm just thankful I'm not a purist and that I do realize I must make compromises on purists tastes/epicurean leanings in order to be happy and make food changes--enjoying semblances of my old life without totally tanking it with high calorie/high fat/high carb nonsense.
