Lena24 2 Posted May 12, 2015 Just wondering what type of clear liquid diets everyone did I'm seening so many different things even something that says do not drinks red or purple liquid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellohealthy 32 Posted May 12, 2015 My Clear Liquids were Water, juice, broth, sugar free Popsicles and Gatorade. I think they say no red or purple so it's not mistaken for blood during the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SusanDavenporr2015 20 Posted May 12, 2015 Hi, I'm new at this too. I see my psych June 8. I weigh 350 and when I got my letter telling me that my insurance was going to pay I danced around the house singing, "I'm gonna lose a person!". My kids thought I'd lost my mind till I showed them the letter. Then they laughed with me. They wouldn't sing and dance with me though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellohealthy 32 Posted May 12, 2015 I wouldn't do clear liquids for 5 days. Liquids sure but clear liquid usually means no Protein which is what your body needs! I was only on clear liquids for a day, which was the day before my surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
