any ideas

Alot of you guys are experts at this , i know i am on the liquid diet for 2 weeks ,,,i am wondering if you guys have any good ideas of things i can eat/drink to add some variety , i am wondering about the protein drinks , i am learning how careful you have to be about how much sugar these things have ,,,,i am also open to soup ideas etc... thanks ...Lu

The health food store on I 240 and Penn has some great organic soups that are soybased-things like corn chowder, etc, that are completely pureed.  You might want to add some non flavored protein powder to those while you are on liquids only.  My favorite is the ginger carrot cashew.  The red curry is pretty high cal/high fat, so go easy on that one.

thanks deb, i sent my brother to the health food store out here on Memorial , he didnt find those flavors but he did get me 2 to try ,,,( he wants to help , so it was good for both of us!!)  thanks again!!  Lu

I'll be on the northside on Wednesday-so let me know if you'd like for me to pick you up a couple of cartons of the soups and I can bring them by. 

That's why it so important for these things to be done pre-surgery!  You can be our spokesperson on that subject!!! tonja

you are so right , i learned a lesson i can pass on to  others !!!  that is a great feeling  too

But don't OVERSTOCK....it would be really overwhelming for me to have a case of soup or drinks on hand-and I'd get tired of it that much faster.  Just keep sending that brother to the health food store-it will be good for him, until you can go yourself!
