Full Liquid Diet - so far

From February 10, 2011


I'm assuming my new tummy is pretty swollen because I'm definitely not getting in the ounces or calories I thought I would be. I was actually pretty nervous about following the post-op liquids only diet but it's been much better than I thought.
I am trying to stay hydrated and not be overly concerned with protein right now


My liquid diet so far is as follows:


Breakfast - 3 oz. of warm tea mixed with 1 spoonful of Unjury unflavored protein powder
Snack - 2-3 oz. of water or water mixed w/ crystal light
Lunch - 2-3 oz. of warm low sodium chicken broth mixed with 1 spoonful of Unjury
Snack - about 1/2 a container of Jell-O, 2-3 oz water
Dinner - 3 oz. of warm tea (or broth) mixed with 1 spoonful of Unjury unflavored protein powder
Water whenever I think of it. Sip, sip, sip!


Gas pains are getting better as I've been walking. I haven't walked outside yet because we 
are having nasty Santa Ana winds today. :(


I am following this liquid diet for another 9 days so hopefully it'll be this easy next week!
