Hello .... I am cleared but waiting on my surgery date. Just looking for recommendations for the good broths during the two week pre op diet. I have to do two weeks, full liquid (protein shakes and SF jello/popsicles only). I am seriously dreading this. Any recommendations for savory broths? TIA.

I found that the ramen noodle packets made a more flavorful broth. I just tossed the noodles and used the flavor packets.

This was a lifesaver. I actually saved mine as ice cube molds. It was delicious going down,

Has anyone had this bone broth?

Has anyone had this Bone Broth?

Yes, it's very good.

I use better than bullion chicken and put black pepper in it

Someone else reccomemdwd the Walmart deli soups on another thread and just straining them. I wish I had thought of that. Their soups are pretty good. Almost as good as the panara bread ones and much cheaper.you can also strain any soup from a restaurant if you have a favorite one and it’s just broth.

I found so many of the broths so gross! Especially bone broths. I live on pho and was very happy. Don’t dread liquids too
Much, one day at a time. It’s really not that bad. And it’s only a few weeks out of the whole process. You got this.

For me by day 4 or 5 I didnt even have hunger anymore. Stomach pretty much stopped grumbling. Only today and Monday left for me. Surgery Tues May 3rd. Its coming around fast lol

I know this thread is a couple of years old, but I wanted to offer some suggestions for your pre-op diet. When it comes to tasty broths, Healo Broth is a solid choice. They offer a range of flavors that can make those liquid days more enjoyable. Check out their website for more info. This Broth is packed with goodness, perfect for your full liquid diet. Whether you're craving savory chicken or flavorful beef, they've got options to satisfy your taste buds during this phase. Staying hydrated and getting that protein kick from their broths will help you sail through those two weeks before your surgery. Hang in there, and I hope your surgery went well and you had a smooth recovery.

I’m still throwing up every day. Is this normal ?
