I wonder if you could make something similar with the reusable k-cup pod and a powdered or partially liquified buillion? I buy Better than Buillion at costco and use it to flavor Soup stock. I bet you could pack a bit of it into the reusable k-cup and instantly brew a cup of broth.

Is that a powder form base from costco? If so, I'm definitely going to get some and doing exactly that post op!

It's not really a powder, it's kind of a moister substance -- like a concentrated liquid, if that makes sense. You scoop it by the tablespoonful to add to hot liquid for broth, so you could either run a cup of hot Water (open and close the Keurig with no coffee pod inside and brew) and stir in the buillion concentrate in by the teaspoonful, or you could pack the concentrate into a reusable k-cup. I personally think the buillion concentrate straight into the mug of Water (instead of into the k-cup) is the less messy option, but either way would likely work. This stuff is in the spice aisle at costco, usually a bit further down the aisle from the powders. It comes in chicken, beef, and vegetable flavors -- all delicious.

I've read on here about unflavored Protein powders (maybe at GNC?), and this concentrate could probably be used with that as the taste is more like authentic Bone Broth and less like chicken-flavored powder. That said, keep in mind a little goes a long way. Mix and taste. :)

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
