I’m on a liquid diet for the first week. I did fine with protein shakes the first couple days but now I’m feeling I need more. I know of broth and Jello but what other ideas do you guys have for a liquid diet?

High protein milk? Protein water?

Sugar free popsicles!

Have you tried protein soups? That can be a good way to get protein. The BariatricPal store used to have a Southwest Chili flavored soup that I loved, but it doesn’t look like they have it anymore. They still have several other flavors, though.

i also love protein hot chocolate. It tastes like normal hot chocolate and it’s a nice change of pace from protein shakes. I make it with Fairlife milk instead of water for even more protein.

No I haven’t tried those!! I’m checking out the bariatric store now. I’m definitely in the mood for something with a different flavor. Thanks so much for the recommendations.

Do you have a specific brand or anything you like?

My favorite is the BariatricPal brand (the same thing is also sold on Amazon as Bariwise, New York Bariatric Group, etc.), but now I buy the Proti-Diet canister on Amazon because it’s cheaper per serving.

+1 on the Bariwise off of Amazon!

Plain broth is gross to me, instead I cook a can of chicken noodle soup and just strain it and toss the chicken and noodles out. So good.

Yes!!! I did end up doing that and it was so much better!!

I am in the last week of my full liquid diet and I have to say I'm struggling with it.. I am lactose intolerant so anything milk based is out of the question, so pretty much I've done sugar free jello, popsicles, pudding and broth... ugh going to try and struggle through the rest of this week to get into the pureed stage..
