I had bypass on December 26th and later this week will be able to transition to full liquids.....not a moment too soon! Anyway, I'm looking for recipes for this phase. Any website suggestions? Thank you!

Pinterest has some good recipes.

I second the pinterest idea! I really craved salty food by the time I progressed to full liquids. I was tired of sweet protein drinks. I relied pretty heavily on blended soups for this stage but watch out - some things are really gross blended up. A particularly nasty minestrone comes to mind.

The absolute best soups to blend are Vietnamese pho (minus the noodles - I also removed the meat initially); japanese ramen (remove the noodles) and miso soup. I think they work so well because they are clear broth soups with a touch of meat, tofu and veggies. I found heavier broth soups containing beans, etc. to be less appetizing when blended. Whatever you do, don't blend any soups with the pasta in it unless you're into meat pudding ? In a pinch, you could make any of these on your own but I really loved getting my favorite soups as takeout, blending them and then freezing in a silicone mini muffin pan. I popped them out in labeled baggies and just popped them into the microwave one at a time as needed. Then, I could eat 3 or 4 different soups a day without wasting any.

If you can tolerate adding some unflavored protein powder to it as well it's even more nutritious.

There are also tons of easy full liquids that are sweet like sugar free yogurt, pudding, jello, etc.
