Liquid phase question

[Caryn68 24]

I'm still a little while out from my December 22nd sleeve, but I'm thinking ahead. Lipton makes a dry Soup with noodles in it. Is it okay to strain out the noodles and keep only the powder to make my own broth with? I did this during a colonoscopy prep and they said it was fine but I want to know if that applies for pre/post diet.

I'm basically wanting to fill a container with the powder and use a teaspoon to make 8 0z of broth. It's not completely see through clear, but slightly cloudy.....any thoughts? I would say the same as a bouillon cube.

Also, is adding a Protein powder to this an option to reach daily goals?

I would think the Soup would be okay as long as the sodium isn't too high. Yes, you can add Protein Powder to this. I have tried every Protein Shake under the sun and found I can tolerate Premier the best. I am two weeks out and struggle to get two of those down a day. Plus my Water. Everything else I drink or eat is just for fun really.

I'm almost positive this is what the broth was that my hospital served me after the surgery. It certainly tasted like it.

What Protein Powder do you recommend? I'm overwhelmed with the choices and am starting to sample different shakes to see what I want to get for my 10 day preOP. Premier are okay, but even a little too sweet. I'm a fruity person.
