Hi all! I'm 2 days post op yay! And back home this afternoon, it was a rough first day, so glad I'm on the other side now, and it's my first post in the post op forum :) My question is this, I have today and tomorrow left of Clear Liquids what brands, favors, different kinds of broths have you all used. I haven't been able to consume much but now that I'm home and off IV I don't want to get dehydrated. I'm sipping Water, but want to get some broth in, any input helps thanks!!

My favorite was Campbell's condensed chicken both, mixed with water. I didn't like Swanson's or beef. ????

The packets of broth that you mix with hot Water are very good. I have hormel brand.

The packets that my Doctor's office sold me were very tasteless....I used Campbell's. I still can not eat an entire can.

I am pre-op but am trying to test some things out(even though my taste buds may change after getting sleeved)...I have found this to be one of my favorites as far as pure liquids go and it has 15 grams of Protein per packet!

I used the Campbell's chicken and noodle and poured it all through a strainer. Basically any broth instead of cream or marinara based Soup with the chunky parts removed is fine. broth saved me..I was so sick of drinking stuff without salt, and the heat and salt of the broth, oh it was heaven.

My surgeon allowed the ProtiDiet creamy chicken and Tomato basil for the clear liquid stage and I really liked them.

you didn't have any problems with acid reflux with the tomato? I'm onto full liquids on Sunday and am apprehensive about acidic foods

Thanks so much everyone, this helps greatly!!

Good morning. My surgeon suggested Swanson carton broth. I purchased the flavor infused broths Tuscany chicken, Louisiana Cajun, Thai Ginger, Chinese Hot and Sour, Mexican Tortilla. I'm 8days post op and can tolerate each one. I dilute them to limit the sodium intake, and mix them for my own liking. This morning I used the Mexican tortilla to cool my grits in(2nd week diet). They taste like cheese grits. :) I hope this helps all that are tired of t g e beef and chicken broth.

No, I didn't. But, ask your team because not everyone would allow these until full liquids.

My NUT also suggested Pacific Foods bone broth because it has more Protein than regular broth nut since the ProtiDiet Soups worked for me I didn't try the Bone Broth.< /p>

Yeah I will be on full liquids tomorrow! Yay lol I have been doing the pacific organic bone broth low sodium but it is quite flavorless, maybe I'll try regular and cut it with a little Water. Thanks for all the input!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
