Sonic ice ROCKS!!!

Getting a little burnt out on water' date=' beef broth & SF Popsicles. Need more clear liquid ideas for the next 5 days... Might try some Crystal Light or some Powerade Zero. Any other ideas????[/quote']

Jello sugar free, icee freeze the crystal light till slushy I use a can with lid like the monster energy kind so u can shake it really well after a couple hours in the freezer... my daughter had surgery last Monday and she got super creative ..added a bit of Tomato sauce in the chicken broth added oregano salt pepper and some lime ..and it was really tasty ...and see through so its considered clear liquid

Usually its liquid diet until u hit the last 24 hours before surgery then its clear liquid but u might want to check with your nut

Ankle and feet swelling is normal after surgery..thts why they want u to walk an all..I walked alot! Lolz feet didnt swell until next day cause I didnt walk as much an prob because I didnt keep feet elevated once I got home..

Sorry, I didn't realize you are post op ..my daughter is liking the sugar free fugcicle ..but she isn't clear liquid .and she had surgery on the 3 rd .its so weird how diets can be so different from Dr. To Dr. Well once u can have liquids non fat sugar free frozen yogurt with Protein Powder ..

And my nut says if it pours its yours ...my daughter had a gastric bypass and I'm having my sleeve on the 24th but our diets are the same before and after.

My next project once I get to the puree foods will be buying greek yogurt..an adding my Protein Powder into it to make a pudding type deal instead of buying sugar free pudding cups.so im gettin my Protein in as well..

I took as little as possible. Pack a gow n, robe, and slippers. You will have to walk around the hallways. Everything else, I got from the nurses: warm blankets, lip gel, etc. You migyt want to take a hair brush and any hair bands, and a tooth brush/paste. Yo u can take a shower before you leave, but I showered as soon as I got home since it wasnt a far drive. Also take a comfy going home outfit that is loose on the tummy. I recommend a suun dress.

Thats about it!
