I was talking with some friends today who had the lap band they told me during their clear liquid phase they would use the packets from roman noodles and just use that as a broth (no noodles) I was thinking of trying this too?. I wanted to get some advice from some veterans :)

I'm newly banded but I would say that isn't a good idea. The sodium in those are usually sky high.

I got some low sodium instant broth packets that smell just like roman noodles, it tasted great by the way.

I'm also going crazy with my chicken broth!!! I waned to do the same with ramen noodles but the sodium as they said is way too high so right now I am drinking Swanson 50% less sodium and I'm so tired of it...it's starting to smell nasty and just gross to me...are there any other options out there for me? :( btw I was banded 10/3

I did beef and chicken broth, Jello, cranberry and grape juice during my clear liquid stage. It really does not last that long and I did do the lower sodium types during this stage. Full liquids is much easier, cream Soups, thin yogurt and some Protein Shakes makes it a little easier. do not expect to lose weight during this initial phase, you will lose some but you will be eating some foods that later will be considered sliders, cream soups, ice cream, etc I also ate a gew sugarfree popcycles during this stage..

The vegetable broth by Swanson is pretty good too, the beef not so much.

I also used the Lipton noodle Soup from the box and drained the noodles off.

Yes, I'm Using Campbell's Soup And Just Drained The Noodles, But I'm Also Having Complications With Gas. I Was Afraid The Soup Was Causing The Gas. Any Feedback?!

Try the single packets of broth sold at Trader Joe's. Very low in sodium and sugar and they taste good. The package is in liquid form so you just add hot Water to your cup

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
