question bout the full liquid diet

Ok... I had my surgery 5/10/06 im on the full liquid diet and the jello is already getting old as well as broth... i know i have to eat it and thats no big deal... but I need a bit of a change. Do u guys have any ideas of other foods on the full liq. diet that I can eat? well drink/sip? Thanks --Sarah

I am also in the same boat. I started eating cream of wheat, the broth was just too annoying as well as the jello. Also I started eating pudding sugar free. Its holding me over I have 1 more day till puree.

let me tell ya sugar free pudding was better than... well almost better than some other things i can think of. I am havin yogurt right now. I am just running out of ideas. I think i still have a little while to go b4 I can have pureed foods.

I'm excited about moving to pureed foods (this Friday.) This liquid diet is starting to get to me. But what's been holding me over for most of the week is soup. Strained soup.

I was all about the SF popcicles. They were my life. They count as liquids. I did milk to break things up a bit with the full liquids too. I was getting SF skim vanilla lattes at Starbucks too. Those are yummy. Variety was the spice of life. Lots of soups. You'll make it. You don't have that much time to go yet before you can move on to the next phase.

hello from the familiar side ...yes jello and malt o meal just doesn't cut it so moved to cream of potato soup with silk soy milk and yum also did the potato buds for mashed potatoes and what a wonderful change. this will be the hardest part just mixing it up enough for the variety. thanks for letting me know i am not the only one with this problem old in colorado won't be able to move on unitl may 27th to pureed will be a long time but will make it chat later norma

Its great to talk to someone that knows exactly how it is. I have started experimenting with some ideas others have given me. I went to o'charleys for dinner tonight... I had their loaded potato soup... but I ordered it without the potatoes and without the cheese on top. omg what a wonderful meal. Actually I ran into my doc there and he said that it was totally fine! I was thrilled. I have also tried tomato soup... I will be able to start my pureed stuff next tuesday!!!!! and I CANT WAIT!!!! im so excited about it. Good luck hon if you want to chat more... feel free to email me.
