Shopping list?
Hello all,
I am starting to get myself prepped for my surgery which is in a few weeks. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a basic shopping list that I would be able to use to get the important stuff for the first few weeks (clear liquid, puree, full liquid, etc.). I am trying to get a head start on everything now so I can focus on the surgery and not the shopping. Any advice or recipes is also appreciated. Thank you!

Clear Liquids:
-chicken/beef broth
-sf popcicles-less than 15 calories
-whey protein (grape) from Wal Mart
-sf jello
-Vitafusion gummy vitamins
-crystal light, sugar free kool aid
-cammomile tea
This will get you started until you move on to Phase 2. I don't think I would buy anything for this phase just yet except your protein shake powder.
A good website for recipes is theworldaccordingtoeggface
Good luck!

I got some of those sugar free snack pack puddings and jello. They are 4oz and ready to go. I also got the instant pudding too, but I didn't feel like making too much when I got home so the snack packs were really easy to grab and eat. Make sure you have your protein shakes. Again, it was easier the first few days to get the ones that are ready to drink.

The protein shakes can't have milk though, right? Most of them seem thick, not water based.
