Ok, my surgery is tomorrow morning and I am on the final stretch of the Clear liquids diet of 48 hours. My question is, I'm sooo hungry for food right now and I know I can't eat anything, but is egg drop Soup ok for the clear liquids or no? I'm just tired of drinking Isopure RTD! Help please :-)

Ok, my surgery is tomorrow morning and I am on the final stretch of the clear liquids diet of 48 hours. My question is, I'm sooo hungry for food right now and I know I can't eat anything, but is egg drop soup ok for the clear liquids or no? I'm just tired of drinking Isopure RTD! Help please :-)

As long as you strain out the egg. Clear liquids must be anything you can sort of see through - coffee, tea, broth...no 'milky' stuff (so no Protein shakes) and definitely no solids.

Oh and good luck tomorrow!.

I think the 48 hours before surgery were some of the hardest hours for me! I had the worse headache-caffeine withdrawal! My point is-if you're gettin' through this then you're good to go! Great luck to you tomorrow and welcome to the world of being banded

I would stick with clear liquids. You made it this far!! Good Luck with surgery.....keep us posted on how you did when you feel up to posting here again....would love to hear first hand how someone did.

would clear liquids include dark liquids as well? such as cranberry juice, beef broth etc?
