Pre op liquid diet

[pattycaketoo 133]

So I'm on day 2. Yesterday was rough not knowing what to really expect. One thing I did realize though is how much I ate out of being bored. I'm disabled so I stay at home most of my time. Any suggestions on passing time? Any ideas how to make this broth taste better?

I understand, I'm also disabled. I volunteer a few hrs a day to the local police to keep busy. I start my liquid diet and my surgery is set for Oct 19th. I can't wait to start my new journey. In regards to brother, how about chopping some cilantr. Good luck

Hi Pattycaketoo,

I made some homemade chicken broth over the weekend and it was absolutely delicious. So much better than store bought. I took a whole chicken, covered it with Water, threw in carrots, celery, onions and some poultry herbs that the grocery store sells. Let it cook for a few hours and then strain out everything except for the broth. Amazing. Good luck to you. I started my liquid diet last Tuesday and it does get easier, I promise. This coming from someone who thought there is no way I can do this.

Stay positive.

Thank you but sad news my insurance didn't approve it. My surgeon is planning on appealing it. Crossing my fingers. Good luck and keep us posted.
