Receipe Suggestions for Full Liquids

Hello Everyone, I have been on Full liquids and I am getting tired. I have run out of ideas. Does anyone have any receipes or suggestions. I have used crystal light, pudding, jello, protein shakes. Thanks, Natalie

Hi Natalie, I would try cream soups, broth, you can also strain the broth from normal soups. Hmm you are right this is difficult. Carly

I bought a hand blender and blended soup. This gave me much more variety. I even bought soup with meat chunks in it, and just blended it up. It was delicous and went down easy. Progresso also makes a low carb soup, chicken enchileda and it is delicious! Bridget

I just ended full liquids (all told I was on four weeks of a liquid diet). By that last week, my family members knew to stay away from me because I was one grumpy girl!! I was sad, angry, bitter and just plain mean at times. That said, I am on day three of my pureed/soft foods diet and much, much happier. It is so great to finally feel FULL! I pretty much did the same as you - I would also strain soups for the broth/juice, but my doctor specifically told me not to blend the soup and then strain (even though I wanted to soooooooo much), so check with your doctor about that. Other than that, just hang in there and know that it gets better!! I am only one month out, but it DOES get better. If someone told me I had to go back to full liquids right now, even for just one week, I think I might scream and tear my hair out because it's just horrible. Take it day by day and you'll get to the other side of it!! Good luck, and e-mail me if you're going crazy and need someone to talk to!!
