My liquid diet after jaw surgery

Please help me think of liquid meals. I cannot chew food for a few weeks. Here are some meals that I currently use:
1. milk + egg-beaters + splenda + vanilla extract
2. blend tofu + grapefruit or banana
3. oatmeal blended with tofu and egg-beaters
4. split pea soup
5. tomato broth
6. blended mixed fruit
7. pudding
8. cream of wheat watered down
9. applesauce multi-packs for convenience
10. Met-Rx ready to drink shakes

Any more ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
 
My ex husband had jaw surgery and was wired shut for 4 weeks. He would have milk shakes with ice cream and peanut butter. Protein shakes made with ice cream. He had some broths, but not too many. He wasn't able to get the sucking action so everything had to be really thin. Peanut butter, ice cream and protein mix were about the only things that kept from not wasteing away.
 
I'm lucky in that I am not wired shut. Sucking is still out of the question, though. Yeah, this really sucks! Soup, blender drinks, porridge, protein shakes.... Sick of this shitty food! Only 6 weeks until I can chew anything, 4 weeks until I can chew soft stuff like scrambled eggs.
 
Beer, Jack Daniels, Vodca,...just joking. how about yogurt? If you need the calories you can do the good stuff, Breyers or Dannon, 210 calories with 9 grams protein and 2 1/2 grams fat. The fat free light stuff is 100 calories still with 9 grams of fat. You can also throw some protein powder in with it or small curd cottage cheese, blend if you have to-all excellent sources of protein. You can also add your own fruit to vanilla yogurt and some protein powder-not bad. Thats all I can think of right now. I guess it shows I love yogurt.
