Hi All,

I noticed that broth is the only non-sweet thing I'll be able to eat for a spell post-op. My question is this supposed to regular broth that I can buy from the grocery or is it a special kind of broth?

TIA,

Pennie

Hey Pennie,

This probably sounds crazy, but I bought the chicken and veggie flavor boullion cubes. The other broths just didn't appeal to me. Plus, I was able to dillute it for my tastes.

Hi Pennie,

I did the same as Tiffy & bought the chicken bouillion (sp.?), but the granules. I think I got the lower-sodium kind because I drank so much of it in the beginning. If you are looking to get Protein, I think unjury has a chicken broth flavored powder that you could mix with Water. You might want to check out that "rate your proteins" thread somewhere around here. I know others on here have tried that flavor & had good things to say about it.

As the body's metabolism requires a steady intake of water in order to function effectively, dieters should always be drinking water or taking in water-rich foods to keep the body's metabolism running at optimal speed. With its high water content, vegetable broth is an excellent natural source of hydration.

I LOVED the unjury chicken broth!!

I still use it!

More protein than the 'cans' and less sodium.

I was doing a google search for bariatric post op food and came across a website that had different flavors of Soup that had 12-15g protein in them. I don't remember the name brand...sounds good though! Y'all keep up the good work ...your journey is beginning!!! Mine will be mid feb... I can't wait!

Chancie,

Our tastebuds are all so different! I tried the unjury chicken Soup yesterday. I liked the flavor, hated the 780 mg of sodium and felt a little nauseated after drinking it. I decided to go with the Trader Joe's low sodium broth and add some unflavored Protein powder to it. Not sure how that will work as I haven't tried it yet.
