So Im 13 days post-op and I got a little hungry today and I got a ramen maruchan Soup pack and I only had the broth not the Pasta. Do you think Im fine? this is the only chicken broth I can handle. But I think it has a lot of calories in it. Dr said chicken broth was fine but he wanted me to buy the ones that come in a can. What do yall think?

Sodium is really high in those. I love them but since my op ....nope off limits. I would stick to popscicles and juices

Yea that wouldn't be really high in calories..just the sodium which is HORRIBLE as long as you don't eat too much every day. Everything in moderation! I actually have talked to someone on here that drank those post op b/c that is all she could hold down and it didn't kill her.

Anyway, Good luck with everything!

I don't think that's the best thing for you. I think homemade is the better option.

That is the BEST chicken broth you can have! I will probably end up doing that myself because I can't stand the taste of CANNED chicken broth! It just tastes AWFUL to me!

      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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
