skinnyfate1004 21 Posted November 29, 2012 Hi everyone, I'm new to this and surgery is around the corner!!!! I'm mostly excited but hoping it all works out! I did some pre- shopping to have things at home such as: Isopure drink and Protein shake... Jello , Popsicles , pudding, broth..... Any other suggestions??? I keep hearing egg whites... 1 deeriggs reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deeriggs 28 Posted November 29, 2012 I have Surgery tuesday also. I am also stocking up. A good thing I got for the Clear Liquids is the chicken broth little tubs that you mix with Water it is actually very tasty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MSinNJ 6 Posted November 29, 2012 I lived on Tomato Soup during the liquid stage. Not everyone's doctor allows it, so i would ask first. It was nice to have something with some taste. I am 3 weeks out, down 22 lbs since surgery and just cleared today for regular food after 2 weeks of puree. You'll do great. Good luck with the surgery. 1 skinnyfate1004 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
