@@QueenBx how are you? I'm post op day 1 and the pain, dry mouth and dry lips are insane. I had a swallow study earlier and my surgeon cleared me for thin liquids but all I want to do is use the PCA and sleep. I have walked the halls a little but I need to walk more. Hope all the post-ops are doing well.

@@QueenBx I'm glad you doing fine. The worst part is over! I was discharged today and headed home now. I've been looking up different ideas for thin liquids. How long will you be on thin liqiuds?

[QueenBx 63]

@@dmw0621 I will be on thin liquids for 2 weeks. I need to look up some things as well let me know what you come up with! So glad your home, I was released today as well.

@@QueenBx I am drinking the optisource for 10 days, crystal lite, broth, sugar free Jello, sf popsicles and sf fudge pops. My broth is not usually the box. I buy Soup and strain the liquids because to me the liqiuds from the soup tastes better than the broth. Oh and sip lots of Water I keep a tumbler with ice water next to me at all times.

[QueenBx 63]

I used that idea today and bought Soups and strained them. Much better than broth! Thank you!

[dmw0621 23]

I'm glad you like it. And if you want to get more Protein you can add unflavored protein to your Soup. It takes some tweeking because it does change the appearance and consistency of your soup. But at least you're getting more protein right. Oh and the same if you use crystal light you can add unflavored protein to it as well.

[QueenBx 63]

Yes thank you. I just ordered unflavored Protein, soon as it gets here I will be on it!
