I am kinda confused, I know we are suposed to have clear liquids after surgery, but can you have like

chocholate flavored protein drink, and if so can you put like a banana in it and blend it??

Now Im saying the 1st 2 weeks after surgery.

Thanks,Lisa

What does your doctor say? If he said to be on clear liquids for 2 weeks, then no banana. Clear liquids don't necessarily have to be completely clear, but they are somewhat see through. Isopure is a clear liquid.

You can put unflavored Protein powder into crystal light, gatoraide, poweraide, etc. It will be cloudy from the Protein Powder, but it's still a clear liquid.

I am on the Southern Coast! Nice to meet you!

clear protein shakes, broths, jello, lite juices. No bananas until you move to the next stage.

I ate jello yesterday and didn't properly chew it, I let it slide down in a lump and was uncomfortable all night. I'm only 3 days out and am hating the clear liquids. I know how you feel, I think we all do, but if we follow instructions in the beginning, then perhaps we'll be able to change our life long habits of eating the wrong foods. I want to change those habits now.

I was told the same, diluted juices, broths, Water, and sugar free crystal light ice pops...they were a saving grace and are only sold at walmart. no dark Protein shakes or anything like that. I feel for u because I just started mushies, it's so hard but try and find the popsicles.

Good luck
