 i am 12 days out and stuck on this liquid diet. but i dont feel anything, i don't feel full or hungry  but i cant seem to finish more than 2 protien drinks. i drink water , but it like i am numb  until that third drink when all i then want to do is throw up.

I am 6 days out and simply confused on what "FOOD" is?  I eat a protein drink 4oz for breakfast, soup or mashed potatoes for lunch and protein drink at night.  Is a protein drink food or liquid?  I have had jello and pudding.  Not doing well with fluids.  Everything tastes bad.  I love tea with equal. 

I am not sure what your dr orders are.  But I am trying anything that I do not have to chew.

I don’t think liquids count as food at all they are liquids... Soups are also liquids in my book.

If you’re like me I was on a liquid diet before surgery so by the time my two weeks post op came around I had been on liquids 3 weeks, personally I think I lost my taste buds during that time. 
Now I am allowed to eat solid to semi solid foods not my favorite- I would rather drink protein shakes because I know I won’t get sick or hurt for hours.
