How much???

[Alivami@12 46]

Hello, I'm confused how much broth, pops, Jello should I consume in the days after surgery? I've read many source that recommend no more than 3oz and aim for 64 oz but is that 64 oz of broth & water/ice. How many jellos? Going nuts already but excited.

usually 4 oz per meal ...but 60 grams of Protein a must i found easiest drinking chocolate muscle milk it has 18 gram of protein in each 10 oz bottle, the fluids also 64 oz i find that hard havent been able to do this but trying....

dislike broth so i passed and just had some Jello and unlimited sugar free ice pops week 2 post op you get a few more choices

my found it easier to just have three Protein Shakes a day (at 20 grams) as i needed more then broth.. and Water in between at nite i had a icepop... in the first few days i had the broth n Jello but like i said i needed more

Day of surgery no more than 2oz every hour. To get both liquid and Protein I did Isopure drinks. I lived off those for 8 days.

Day 2/3 after you can eat/drink 4oz every hour. What I did to see how much I was eating/drinking was buy some dixie cups (3oz) and alternated Water and Protein. The serving size is perfect.
