Tips for flight to Mexico



Recommended Posts

Im flying from south Florida to San Diego with a stop over in Atlanta on Thursday 9/1. Anybody have suggestions for the clear liquid diet I will be on both ways? I will be traveling most of each day and am worried about how the heck I will stay nourished.

Any suggestions for making the trips more comfortable will be MUCH appreciated.

you will need to bring a shaker bottle, and nectar powder and bring your own bottled Water that you buy airside before you board. You can ask the flight attendant to fill your shaker bottle with Water when she passes with drinks (but don't depend on them to return). You can bring some powdered broth or cube and ask for hot water. If you decide to use your shaker bottle, make sure it doesn't leak when you shake it. Either test it at home, or shake it in the bathroom.

Thanks for the the great tips. I laughed at the thought of shaking my bottle on the plane and having it splash all over the person next to me. Ill be sure to test it prior to using it. Going to GNC tomorrow to check out Isopure.< /p>

With the shaker bottle. I had an "accident" in the office, thankfully in my own cubicle last time I was on a liquid diet. What a mess. I'm super careful after that. I fly alot and have seen many accident, mostly careless passengers with their coffee cups boarding.

I checked out the Isopure, but they won't allow you to bring it on the plane ... Do you mean purchase the big tub and put it in a shaker ? @@OKCPirate

They allowed it in my checked bag.

I bought Vitamin Water and found a restaurant that had chicken noodle Soup. I asked for just the broth and that I would gladly pay full price. No problem.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
