NTR-will drinking non-set jello make me feel full?

mistresscox

I had my tonsils out last week and am still really hurting.  Anything but ice chips kills me to swallow, but I am HUNGRY and my sugar is low.  Do you think if I drank un-set jello I would feel full?  I'm getting kind of desperate and otterpops are starting to make me nauseated.

i doubt it. if you eat it before the gelatin has a chance to solidify it, you're basically just drinking it which means it will pass through your system like juice.

what about sipping something like chicken broth? it will have a bit of fat in it and might make your stomach feel more full.

I tried that-the salt in it burns like a mo-fo.  Had me in tears.

Jell-o does have protein in it so maybe?

I'm not sure about the unset jello....have you tried a thin milkshake?  I had my tonsils out a couple years ago and I lived on popsicles, fudge bars and thin milkshakes.  The milkshakes really made me feel full.  Even now if I drink a glass of milk I feel full for a little while.  Hope you start feeling better soon.

What about ice cream with carnation instant breakfast mixed in?

You should drink something like Ensure. those will fill you right up

Ensure shakes or milk work.

plain or vanilla yogurt, banana, ground flax seed and ice chips.  grind it all up in the mixer and drink up.

My mom used to give us unset Jello when we were kids if we were sick and couldn't eat much. I don't remember if it filled me up, but I loved it!

I've been eating milkshakes.  I can get about 2 "bites" in before it hurts too much.  Same with Slim Fast.  I ate some jello earlier that made me feel a bit better, but DH thoughtfully finished it without making more.  Guess I'll go back to the freezer for milkshake again.

This for me, too.  Drinking jello was always so yummy!
