Drinks !!

Mar 21, 2010

So, I've been finding my way through how to feed and nourish my body and to take in enough water to keep hydrated. 

I'm still on a full liquid diet and have another week or so to go on this so want to make the best of it particularly as I'm not feeling at all hungry.

I read an article a while back where the dietician had planned out 15 small drinks during the day to get in the protein and to ensure a balanced diet. 

I'm going to try this today as follows :

5 x 4oz Protein Shake Drinks
2 x 4oz Fruit Juice - NAS
2 x 4oz Veg Juice
4 x 4oz Regular Beverage - I'm having water with some NAS squash
2 x 4ox LF Milk

Basically you have one of these every hour whilst you are awake and should increase the Regular Beverage to the point where you can drink up to 8 oz's per hour.

This sounds a lot compared to what I have been managing but have put everything in pots and am going to try and get through this today.

I've prepped everything and it's all measured out and sitting in my fridge in small portions, so I can visually see how I am doing and there's no fuss.

I've done quick calculation and it comes out at about 70grams of protein and 550 cals so not too bad.

Will let you know how I get on.
Debbie
