Man, I'm so jealous! I can't have food or broth. But all I have "eaten" was one and a half protine shakes and one sf Jello cup. I'm drinking the second shake right now, so gross! Lol I don't know how I can do this for 2 weeks!

If this helps at all, I am drinking the EAS advantage shakes chocolate fudge and they r the best by far to me and no after taste! I'm not sure why different surgeons require different things. Weird! But u can do it! Powerade zero is good too! Can u have that?

I will try that, but I already spent 90$ on these so I don't want to waste them! Lol. I can have that, I have all kinds of crystal lights and Popsicles.

Ooh I need some Popsicles! That would be good! I am waiting on the hospital to call and pre register me but they haven't done it yet! Do u know if u have to pay anything up front or if the bill u?

I think I have to pay up front, in fact I think I have to pay 48 hours in advance. But all doctors are different.

Well I have to pay my surgeon up front but not sure about the hospital charges. Hopefully since my deductible is met I don't have to pay them up front which is what two ladies I spoke with at the hospital said. But u know how that goes it could vary from person to person lol
