Just wanted to get ideas for the clear liquid phase - what all can we have?

Today I start the four days of Protein Shakes & small salad w/protein for dinner - then on day five I start "clear" liquids only.

I'm on day 5 of my pre-op liquid diet and I've found the different brands of broth can vary in taste so I say find one u like it can live with just note our taste buds can change. Post-op during my week of Clear Liquids I plan to have the following:

broth

Crystal Light

SF Popsicles

SF Jello

Isopure fruity drink with 40grams of Protein. Not sure if I can stomach it because it taste pretty gross but has a ton of protein.

I have to do clears this coming up weekend and bought sf popsicles, crystal light, a variety of cubes to make broth but reading the label yesterday on day one of my liquid diet, it showed 800 mg of sodium! :o I can only do one cup with that much sodium! If I do more than I will retain every bit of liquid I take in. I will be going back to the store today or tomorrow to see if they have a low/no sodium variety. I want something hot at times and that was the only thing I didn't have to limit, but with that amount of sodium I will have to limit to once a day. :(

I lived on Water, broth, SF green or yellow Jello, clear low calorie juices, and SF lemonade juice BAR type popsicles.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
