Can I count SF Popsicles as fluid?

[apple-saucy 17]

So I was sleeved on last friday this is my first full day home. I've been awake for about 6ish hours and have gotten in almost 32oz of Water (go me!) Plus an 8oz Protein Drink, my lunch is warming up now (potato Soup w/ Protein powder) I just ate a popscilcel and it occured to me. Do I count that as food or fluids? And how much fluids?

Thanks.

I thought I would feel incredibly different like something was missing after surgery but I feel pretty normal other than the occasional painful air bubble from not waiting for a sip of water to settle before taking another sip. And the surgical pains...

I believe that during the liquid stage, any liquid you get in is liquid. that includes broth too.

good luck to you!!

You can count them as Fluid but they r small, only like 1.5 ounces or so.

welcome home!! Glad to hear you are doing well!! I never really count the popcicles as Fluid, but I suppose if they melt they would turn to liguid and I was told that anything left sitting out that turns to liquid counts as liquid.

My dr. said ice pops = Water intake. I LOVE ice pops! You can even make your own

hmmm....I was told no potato Soup. Did your doctor give you clearance for that?

[apple-saucy 17]

Anything that passes through a seive is considered a full liquid...so yeah it passed through the sieve it's allowed.

Yeah, I'm 8 days out and just started full liquids today. I was given specific things to avoid on the full liquid phase and potato Soup was one of them..even strained. Gotta love how the diets are so different!
