Clear liquids.....I hate broth



Recommended Posts

Good luck! It was rough. But I found ways to get thru. I found the broth I could eat best was just taking a can of Campbell’s chicken noodle or vegetable Soup and straining out the noodles or veggies and just eating that. Regular bouillon or broth Soups were way too salty!

I’m 3 days post op and doing fairly well with liquid intake ....about 35-42 oz a day. broth is disgusting to my taste buds now. I’ve done regular Swanson’s low sodium chicken, better than bullion and Bone Broth. Not sure why but I hate that taste now.

I would love to have something besides sweet liquids but not sure there is anything else out there. Any ideas?

You might like miso Soup better or different kinds of herbal tea. Post-op I couldn’t stand sweet so broth was my savior. Our taste changes are so unpredictable. Good luck.

My husband went to the store, where they have hot, prepared Soups and got chicken noodle Soup, heavy on the broth. I then strained it. It tasted 1000X better than canned broth. I actually enjoyed it. Try that.

Our local sandwich chain was a star. They always serve 3-4 Soups a day, and I would call ahead to check and see what they had. Vegetable beef for some reason was my favorite. They would pack me up a bowl of the broth to go that I could reheat for a few meals.

I’m so sick of broth too, so I’m not eating it. Today is my 4th day post op and I have had Soup twice. I’m living off of lots of herbal tea (peppermint), flavored waters (hint is my favorite), and ice chips. Also trying to get down some clear Protein Drinks but they’re way grosser now. As a treat my friend brought me a sugar free icee and it rocked my world.

peppermint can be rough on a healing stomach, look at the first half of the name, my gastroenterologist banned me from it because of ulcers . He and my godmother should have a mixed martial arts battle, bless her 💓, she gave it to me for tummy upsets.

I am 3 days post op.
I struggled as well with the clear broths. They just didn’t seem to have much flavour. That is until I tried Campbells Mushroom broth. Very tasty. Try it, see what you think.

I think I probably will have Cream of Mushroom breath until the day I die.

My suggestion is Rather Good if I say so. Sams Choice Organic & Vegan Protein broth, my Nutritionist groaned but it has stayed down for ME, and when you are entering 9 weeks post I'll take Stomach 💕where I can find IT!😇😛👼

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

      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! 😞
