first week post op

What did you guys do for drinks your first week post op. Currently I am only drinking Water and eating bits of Jello. I can't stand the taste of crystal light or Powerade zero. Yesterday I was feeling ok but today I feel tired and lightheadedness.

Try some skim milk. You need Protein. I drank three cups a day when I was on liquids.

How about some chicken broth?

II became lactose intolerant so I stuck to jello , Popsicles , and water flavored with disani flavor enhancer , and chicken broth

I'm making my husband go buy me some popsicles, I can't do broth even thinking about it makes me almost throw up. I used to have an "Iron stomach" but now even there mere though of things will bring Jen to my knees. Oh well on day at a time. I did drink a small glass of milk and that helped with my lightheadedness.

I just found out I will be drinking 1/8 a cup of clear juice mixed with 1/8 a cup of water three times a day just to keep blood sugar levels from going bonkers.

I am pretty sure you can have any clear juice under 20 cals per serving. I have found minute maid has a couple of flavors in the refrigerator section at my Walmart. Also, ocean spray makes diet juices like cran-grape etc that were a nice change up.

The only broth I could make it through was the beef bullion cubes and after two weeks of that I will be glad to never see it again.

Crystal light lemonade is amazing. I wish I would have discovered it sooner. I also did pedialyte Popsicles to help with electrolytes.

The crystal light lemonade burned my pouch or at least that's how I felt.

Fuze slenderize is good, low fat milk, Motts Tots has a light apple juice that I've been drinking - only 50 cals and 12 g sugar in 8 oz serving. Plus the juice helps keep constipation away. Lol
