I couldn't do the broths either... It smelled soo bad! I was nauseated a lot of the time I was in the hospital. I could only do Water too. I tried the popsicles but couldn't eat much of that either. I think, at home, you will be able to drink broth because it will be something you choose and it will taste and smell better. The first few days are hard to get much in and that is ok. I couldn't do it either, but each day is easier. The day after (or maybe 2 days after) I came home, I really started taking the liquids seriously and started timing myself and drinking an ounce of Water every 10 minutes. Right now, the water is more important than anything else. I could NOT drink those Protein supplements that the hospital had.. just the smell alone made me want to be sick!

Sounds like you are right on track.... I'm sorry you can't get rid of the gas. That is the worst part, I think... but walking is supposed to help.
