Clear broth = broth that you can see through, with no bits of meat, veggies, rice, etc. in it. You can find it in boxes or cans at the market.

Ugh, I don't like hearing that you are hungry! I thought the surgery removes the 'hunger enzymes'? My husband is going to be sleeved May 2 and hopefully I will be approved a bit later. I have heard some people are not at all hungry post sleeve and others are.

If you have boullion you can make some broth with that. Good luck to you. I hope it gets easier for you!

I think food has played an important role in all of our lives. Too important! Someone recommended this book to me and it's been helpful. You got this! Think about how good you'll look and feel on the other side!

They also sell packets of broth that you can mix with hot Water (easier at work, etc).

Clear broth you can usually buy in the grocery store ......it's usually either chicken, or beef.....your surgeon's office should have given you something with a list of items you can have......when is your surgery?

I'm so glad my surgeon doesn't require a pre-op diet.

No love I haven't had it yet but my surgeon requires that we do a two week pre op diet before surgery !

I totally cheated, I ate a piece of grilled chicken and baked salmon a couple of days. I'm down 13 lbs still. I couldn't do the all liquid for 2 weeks. I was so hungry, make that HANGRY! Ugh. Tomorrow is all clear broth!

I get sleeved on 28 April and am required to do a two week pre-op diet which consists of 4 shakes, two Protein bars, and 1 banana or a cup of skim milk per day. I can have up to 3 servings of sugar free Jello and sugar free Popsicles. I am on day 5. So far it has not been to bad. I must admit the best part of my day is when I eat the banana. Good luck to everyone on their journeys!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
