We all know Water and chicken broth, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to mix up the 2 weeks pre-surgery that involves Clear liquids???

I only had clear liquids the day before surgery and post-op. My surgeon's office recommended the ProtDiet liquid beverage concentrates which helped a lot. Also sugar-free Popsicles really helped early post-op to get in fluids.

My favorite clear was vegetable broth with Old Bay seasoning added in.

@ I really liked that idea about Old Bay seasoning, I use it with chicken broth myself and it is wonderful. I also really love miso Soup, so I make a packet of that and strain out all of the seaweed and tofu.

Vitamin Water Zero and Crystal Light Fruit Punch are my go-to drinks, SF popsicles and SF Jello are my Desserts.

Thanks. I'm a Maryland girl, Old Bay goes on everything! I haven't tried vitamin Water yet. Before surgery I drank a lot of Tangerine Mango Crystal Light, but since surgery, crystal light lemonade has been my go to. I find myself wanting sour and bolder favors.

_{Thank you guys for your replies! I have never tried old bay seasoning, so ill have to look into it! I loooove crystal light lemonade, though!}

My favorite is straining the Progresso chicken Noodle Soups, I just toss the noodles and veggies. If I do broth, I add a small amount of Caldo con Sabor de Pollo, it's the granulated version of Knorr's chicken bouillon cubes. It comes in a 35oz jar and can be found with the bouillon cubes or in the International aisle at the grocery store. sugar free Gelatin and SF popsicles have been a lifesaver! Just don't eat anything with red or purple dye 24 hours before surgery, it can look like blood to the surgeon.
