Surg tomorrow clear liquid diet today

[Tx.Doll3 30]

I'm on my clear liquid diet today but I am having a Hard time with broth...it's grossing me out and I can't drink it without gagging today I've only managed Water, one sugar free frozen ice thing, and the magnesium citrate and i need ideas for the broth to get it down. I tried beef broth and chicken and I just can't. Help anyone?

What brand are you using? I know that sounds silly, but there is a difference. I grew up on Swansons, and bought Walmart brand to save money. the Walmart brand made me gag! It was tooooooo over-seasoned. Swansons is just broth, and is milder in taste. Watering down the Walmart stuff didnt help either.

That is all I can think to tell you.

I'm using the H-E-B brand I think I might just need Swanson or to make my own broth and let my family eat the fillings in the Soup.

Can you go get yourself some Isopure?

Hmmmm..... HEB brand is ok too. Just DON'T get Walmart brand!!! Just get a can of Swansons rather than the big box, in case you don't like it either. Some people on the forum seem to just not like plain broth. It's all about tastes, I suppose.

My NUT recommended the stock base. Like 'better than bouillon'. And reconstitute it. And my MIL is making me her vegetable beef Soup just for the broth upon my request.

woohoo i just found a solution to the clear liquid stage 1. surg 6/18. i have humapro 2 flavors but not a huge fan. finances are tight right now so that was going to have to be the solution. i bought sugar free Jello and mixed 2 scoops into it and mixed to directions. it is ok. so now 2 cups has turned into 50 grams of Protein. i have the peach mango and sour grape humapro. i bought peach and raspberry jellos to pair with the humapro.

No I was home Thursday night. I would have preferred to stay in the hospital because of the bed and the PCA pump lol
