georgia girl: thanks for your input..i'm going to "steal" your idea of shredded chicken and bbq. i bought one of those roasted chickens from the supermarket and that would taste great shredded with bbq!

I had to get rebanded yesterday, because mine had slipped, and was choking off the esophagus! It hurt much worse this time. Anyway I am on my SECOND week of clear fluids ONLY, and the doc said he might keep me on this for 2 more weeks. If I wasn't hurting from the surgery, I would kick his butt! HA! I hate chicken broth! Anyone got any good ideas for a clear liquid diet?? Thanks in advance!

Cathy

ps, Did I mention i was starving to death????

I usually buy a couple of traditional rotisserie chickens from walmart (only $4.99 per chicken) every couple of weeks. I used it to make spinach chicken salad the other day and it was soooo good. So much better than canned!

I like stealing ideas from this thread too!
