pre op liquid diet

[Lisa00 14]

Does anyone know if you can have Soup on a liquid diet? Like Tomato Soup?

That's funny. I was just going to ask the same question. I was just wondering about broth? I bought the low-fat, low-sodium, but I think it may still have too much sodium. Good question!

My doctor told me YES, so I get to start my liquid diet tomorrow for surgery on 05/07/14. You may also have sugar free Jello, of couse this is as per my doctor. Good luck to you.

I will have my surgery on12 may 14 and will start my pre- op diet on the 28th of this month, going to be hard as I will be in Vegas. But I want a healthy life so I'm going to suck it up while I'm in Vegas and stick to the liquid diet.< /p>

Tomato Soup is fine. Your digestive system might react a bit differently to the acid in the Soup because you're eating fewer calories. Good luck!

Thanks for the answer, I instead of having Soup, had a small can of V8 juice, it was ok. Did get a bit of heartburn but quickly went away

I was wondering the same thing. My preop is 2 shakes and 1 sensable meal. I am scared I did not do well today, Shaked Breakfast, luncheon at work where I had a salad, some rot. chicken and a little dressing. Tonight I am shaking.
