First off I have to give kudos to sophia for coming up with such a great topic header
and I was definately saying that the first few days!! Then I figured that I needed to get tough and suck it up... ha or at least i was thinking that-
I visited the site bariatriceating.com and ordered some things to make protein and liquid diet easier
I ordered the new whey protein shots (i ordered the orange) they arent that bad- compared to other things. They come in flavors like grape, cherry, orange and now blue razzberry. they have a bit of an after taste but its 42 grams of protein in 3oz and no carbs or sugar. easy to just down and get it over with
I also ordered nectar- its a protein that can be mixed with water or along with crystal light. I ordered roadside lemonade- pretty decent I was able to drink almost 96 oz of water combined with this through the day. I'm sure that will change after surgery but for now at least im hydrated.
I also bought the sugar free jello and sugar free pudding cups (perfect for portion sizing and you can mix in a tasteless protein packet into the pudding) I used anywhey protein powder
Tomato soup with skinny cow milk (1 cup of skinny cow has 11 grams of protein)
I used the zero carb isopure but mixed it with frozen strawberries (1/4 cup) and blended it. I also tried peanut butter, banana and cocoa- (my fave so far), blueberries were good too.
The best idea is to be creative and remember that nothing beats the taste of being thin. They have some great information on the website I listed before. There are plenty of options on there also Nicolette Pace has some great shakes at her office that taste like vanilla pudding if you into that kinda thing. I think they are called Bariatrix
I hope this is helpful I'll try to keep posting different ideas I come up with. feel free to find me anytime
