I'm 4 days post op and so far everything had been great . A little heart burn but not too bad . But a few hours ago I started feeling a little light headed . I just feel like the clear liquids isn't enough for me . All I have been drinking is water and eating sugar free raspberry jello . Anything else makes me gag (juice/broths) I'm seeing my surgeon on Thursday but is there any recommendations ? Ill probably call him tomorrow .

What about 12 oz of gatorade? I was supposed to do this everyday while on liquids.

I drank G2 (low cal Gatorade) like crazy. It went down smooth and the electrolytes in it really helped me feel more together.

The gatorade helped me to get thu the leg cramps. I had some pretty nasty cramps for a few days and read up on runners cramps. Said I needed electrolytes and in a few days they were gone.....(actually I was drinking powerade at 15 for $10)

Sugar free Popsicles. Love them.

It could be your potassium that may low. Try coconut water

I am 1 week post-op and on pureed foods. I started to feel stronger when I moved to that phase. I also found that the sugar-free popsicles soothed my stomach. Now they are my best friend!
