Hello all you lovely people! I just had periodontal (gum graft) surgery and am on a liquid diet for the next week. I've had soup for two meals and I'm already sick of it. I have purchased a new blender so I'd like some ideas for food that actually tastes good and requires absolutely no chewing. Thanks in advance!

    Is it just me or do protein shakes make me constipated? Sorry about the TMI

    Hi there, I feel your pain. In the past 2 months I have had 5 teeth extracted and two bone spurs removed. Here are a few things I ate/drank.

    1. In a blender, chocolate slim fast, 1 banana and 1 tablespoon peanut butter. This is really yummy and my fav
    2. In a blender, vanilla slim fast and 1-2 peeled oranges, taste like an orange creamsicle.
    3. In a blender, any green smoothie that you like. I used spinach, kale, apples, carrots, kiwi, not the best tating buy I was able to do a week of it.
    4. Basically any fruit and veggies in the blender.

    Apple sauce, mashed potatoes, yougurt, soft boiled eggs, pudding

    Number 2 sounds really good! I should give that a try. As for slim fast, I've never tried it but it won't hurt to try. Thanks for the tips!

    Hello :D
    My best option is juicing fruits and veggies. You get in a lot of nutrients and it's very healthy! But if you have a blender instead of a juicer then try some smoothies. Some of my favs are

    - Almond milk, mango, peach and strawberry
    or
    - Spinach, orange juice and strawberries
    and
    - Cold green tea, honey, and mixed berries.
