My surgery is scheduled for the 30th and I just got done grocery shopping for items for discharge I'm super pumped!!

First part of my plan is to be on a liquid diet for 3weeks. The first 10 days is Clear liquids only. On the 10th day I can move to other liquids as tolerated by my body. This is what I got:

- chicken broth stock low sodium

- tomato Soup to be diluted

- creamy Soups to be strained

- sugar free target brand fruit punch mix packets

- 100% Vegetable juice for the Vitamins

- sf propel drink mix packets

- inst. carnation Breakfast

- body fortress Protein shots <--- these are awesome. It's Liquid Protein 27grams in a small little 3oz. Tube

Anyone else find liquids that worked well and want to share? I'm looking for items to mix up. I have a few protein choices, a vegetable choice. I wanted to get diet v8 splash however the target near me doesn't sell the diet brand anymore.

I was cautioned by the nurses at the hospital to go easy on tomato soup in the beginning. Due to the acid in tomatoes, it may not set to well with your new baby tummy. You might try that one a little but at a time just to be sure you can tolerate it.

I would read the ingredients on the Protein shot. My nut said we are to look for whey protein isolate or soy protein isolate as these are higher quality protein and best absorbed.

Anyway, always great to be prepared! Sounds like you are ready :-)

Lol I loved tomato soup presurgery and now I will NEVER eat it again. It didn't make me sick or anything but I got so sick of it and one day I tried some that had been in the fridge two days and it was horrible. Never again.
