2nd week liquid ideas

thughes113 · 07-04-2008, 07:33 AM

Entering the 2nd week. Struggling a little with hunger. Ideas for 2nd week liquids would be so welcome. As I understand it (correct me if I'm wrong), I can have skim milk. Can I have these things: V-8 Juice, Yogurt Smoothies (store bought), the smoothies from the recipes on this site, campbells soup at hand, other soups put through a blender (?), milkshakes (made with skim milk and sugar free ice cream). Any ideas would be so appreciated.

NSV - Put on a pair of pants yesterday that fit me before surgery...but yesterday, they were just too big! I had to keep hiking them up!

Happy July 4th Everyone

You have a great list. I have already done the soups and blended them in the blender and they were great. I am still full of gas I don't have that I lost and can tell yet. I mean 19lbs was alot but most of my clothes were cotton and stretch so maybe that's why I can't tell.

Good luck hope people come along and give great ideas!!!

Good for about your pants--what a nice feeling!
I was banded June 23rd and I also ate applesauce(I bought the ready to eat in cups,and they also have different flavors summer stawberry and harvest peach) and mashed potatoes (I bought instant Idahoian 4 cheese--yummy). 1 cup filled me up for dinner/the evening. They both worked fine. I also got some Italian Ice cups & sugar free popscicles. Good Luck & Happy 4th!

Cream of Wheat has been a help for me. It has a fair amount of iron, and I cook it in milk for the extra protein.
