Is gatorade ok right after surgery?

[PlzCoolerMe 23]

Just sleeve'd 2 days ago. I thought I had read somewhere that Gatorade was fine and included as a "Clear liquid", but, now I can't seem to find it. I can call my doctor tomorrow morning, but, just thought I'd see if any of you knew for sure since I have a purple G2 on hand and it's sounding pretty good. Thanks.

My nutrition plan allows for G2 during the clears phase post-op, but that doesn't mean your surgeon/nutritionist would approve.

I drank it but then realized it had more sugar than I thought. I switched to Powerade zero and propel. Much better in my opinion.

G2 or regular? I don't drink the regular, but, I thought G2 was supposed to be minimal sugar to none?

I def didn't drink regular but G2 had more sugar than other drinks (no wonder why it was so good lol)...I don't have one in front of me but yes I stopped drinking it for that reason.

I drank regular Gatorade, but I diluted it a little to cut how sweet it tasted. (My doctor's post op plan was Clear Liquids for nine days after surgery, and not to use sugar free ones until we got to where we could eat regular food again.)

I could not tolerate Water in the weeks right after surgery so at recommendation of nutritionist, diluted regular Gatorade and diet snapple with water. It saved me from dehydration.

Artificial sweeteners really upset my sleeve between 1 and 4 months postop. So I was drinking regular Vitamin Water, regular Lifewater, regular Powerade and 100% no sugar added juice. Since everything also tasted too sweet to me, I cut all of these 1/2 and 1/2 with water. Even after my sleeve could tolerate the artificial sweeteners, I developed a strong distaste for the artificial flavor. So I really don't drink "diet" or "zero" anything. Plain water, Flavored Decaf iced tea and dilute fruit juices are my goto drinks.< /p>

I was allowed g2, but it had to be diluted.
