Phase 2 clear liquid diet ideas...

[Marina Vela 6]

Just converted from sleeve to bypass 2 days ago and already losing my mind. The first time wasn't as difficult because it was for weight loss and I was pumped, this time is for GERD relief. I HATE sweets. I could go an entire lifetime without sweets but all the Protein Drinks are sweet. To combat that does anyone have any suggestions of some Soups they ate during phase 2? I was thinking strained chicken noodle Soup, strained top ramen, or strained minestrone because regular fat free low sodium broth made me vomit. My doctor just said Clear Liquids but did not specify or give me ideas. Tyia

Have you tried the BariWise Protein Soup? Isopure is also great, the lemonade flavor is tart not sweet. Tastes like flavored water. Good luck.

Unjury makes a chicken broth-flavored Protein Powder that a lot of people seem to like

What about Bone Broth? There are curry and chipotle and other flavors.

The others have good suggestions but I would add clear Protein Drink (they aren’t as sweet and can be watered down). Also, I have heard of people that just used ramen seasoning packets and tossed the noodle part.
