Ideas for liquids first week out of surgery

I'm three days out but seem to have lack of variety for what I can have. Soup broth and optifast. Any ideas would be great.

Gas is finally starting to move out which is great

popcicles, various flavors of protein shakes, strained french onion soup (nice break from chicken broth) hot herbal teas of all flavors.. sometimes sweetened with splenda, sometimes not. Green tea, iced or hot (make sure your doctor allows it, I was drinking it in the hospital and my doctor has no restrictions on green tea, he only said to limit my black tea/coffee intake to two cups a day) jello, treat yourself to sugar free drinks you might not ordinarily buy.. I enjoyed some vitamin water zero in all flavors except citrus(not allowed) At first I didn't love water, so I did drink a lot of flavored drinks.. now I'm back with water and I'm enjoying it just as much as I used to.

If your allowed, the V8 Fusion drinks are quite delicious

For the first couple of weeks all that I could stand the taste of was homemade turkey broth! I literally lived on that alone!

First couple days SF Popsicles and orange Vitamin Water zero were my best friends. Had a hard time with anything else.
