Clear liquid diet and my feeling weak and sick

I'm having my surgery in 2 days and I'm on a clear liquid diet, I feel so weak and dizzy at times.. What are some good drinks or liquids that has some protein in it to help not feel weak or dizzy? I need ideas please!

I would add some unflavored Isopure protein powder to chicken broth or try the chicken broth flavored protein powder in water...Unjury has a good chicken flavored powder.

Okay I'll check it out and see if that will help.. Thanks!

I've been feeling the same. I'm on day 3 of the liquid diet...I have my surgery tomorrow.

I've been making sure I drink 2 Isopures a day (40 grams of Protein each). They are nasty (in my opinion lol)...so try to add some Mio, Crystal Light, etc to it. And maybe even put it with ice in a blender and make a smoothie. The broth is good (I like the beef broth too), and sugar free popsicles I have some of the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken stuff...but I noticed it has milk in it and my NUT and doc said no milk stuff until after surgery. So, I would check on that before :)

I tasted Isopure and it's nasty!! I'm drinking more broth today and eating more sugar free jello and ice pops too.. Flying out tomorrow and surgery on Tuesday... Good luck to you tomorrow!

Good luck to you as well! :) Keep us posted!

The Isopure actually mixes in really well IMO but you must be sure that the liquid is less than 140* degrees. I tried adding it to my fresh brewed coffee once a d would liked to have died. Had to pour it out. If the liquid is steaming and hot to the touch then the Iso just seems to curdle.
