Week 1: Liquid Diet

The list of foods and kitchen wares will make surviving a 6 week liquid diet managable:

1. Always, Always, Always keep your surenges for eating on hand.

2. If you don’t already have a blender, bur one. Having an extra one on hand is great for cooking food in bulk.

3. Cream of Wheat will be your best friend

4. Ramen noodles (week 1/ broth only) will be very satisfying.

5. Jello - Cold, chilled jello feels great on your acing mouth..purchase allot and eat often

6. Applesauce - soothes the throat and tastes great!

7. Ensure - Provides all the vitamins and minerals you need. Especially when on the go

8. Thin based soups - my favorite, Zuppa Toscana from Olive Garden (broth only) and homemade chicken soup.

9. WATER…H2O!!..4-6 bottles a day depending on your weight and size.

10. Strainer, clear containers for labeling food and a recipe book for smoothies.
