how many mg of sugar is too much right after surgery? i'm trying to buy what i need and i don't want to get too much sugar. please help!@!!

I was told no more than 15g of

Carbs and 6g of sugar in one serving.

wow, so the v-8 splash i bought won't work! what can i drink for clear liquid diet?

I was told by my dietician that 13 per serving. Hope that helps.

I was allowed Propel,

Crystal light, broth, sf jello and sf Popsicles. I was only on clear liquid 2 days Pre surgery...post surgery I was 2 weeks full

Liquid.

got plenty of broth, how about yogurt?

Nope, no yogurt until puree stage.

I can have Greek yogurt as long as it is less then 13g of sugar.

You may want to check with your doctor but I was allowed cream soups in my liquid phase. As long as they were the Healthy Request and I strained them.

My nutritionist told me only 2 grams of added sugar. She said if its more than 2 grams to check the first 5 ingredients on the label and if their are added sugars and syrups do not touch. But if it's sugars that are naturally in the food, I would be fine.

And also, in my liquid phase, I am allowed cream soups, yogurt & pudding as long as they're strained before eating.

thanks everybody!!!

You could ask your doctor about diet V-8 splash. Mine gave me the ok for it after 1 week along with cream soups, no sugar added fudgsicals, an tomato Soup. It had to be diluted but still nice to have a different variety!

What kind of creamy soups?

Mine said to stick with Campbell's or health smart because they have the most variety. I did a lot of cream of potato, mushroom, and cheddar broccoli. Mine just had to be strained and diluted. So it would be 1 cup milk 1/2 cup skim milk 1/2 cup water or all water. Campbell's offered all those soups in a "healthier" variety do it was less calories and what not and they went down well for me. I didn't try tomato cuz I wasn't really a fan before surgery

Lol I meant one cup soup to half cup skim milk 1/2 cup water.
