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.

Premier protein chocolate shakes have like 1 carb, no sugar and taste like hot chocolate if you microwave them for like 40 seconds :)

Ooh also no chunk tomato soup is good too

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!???
