Pre Op Questions

First post. I’m having surgery Monday 3/26. Just wondering what you all consumed when you returned home? I’d like to buy some of it beforehand.

I'm on the liquid diet until the 15th day post op. My list was chicken and turkey broth. Progreso Soup so I can strain it. Sugar less Jello and Popsicles. Tea, Water, crystal light, Vitamin water ZERO. Protein Shakes, and Vitamins.

It depends on your Surgeon's program. Most follow this program:

Week 1: Clear Liquids (Water, broth, sugar-free, Gatorade or Vitamin Water, Protein Shakes)

Week 2: Protein Shakes (Jello, Broth)

Week 3: pureed Foods (Us can mix in Protein Powder with Jello and broth)

Week 4: Soft Foods (Scrambled eggs, chicken soaked in broth)

Week 5: Foods (You start testing foods to see what will sit well with you and will not)

For 10 days I have a clear liquid diet- broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicle, Protein Shake (2 oz - 4 times a day). I also can have juice (100% real juice no sugar added) diluted half with Water. That is one of my favorites- 1/8 c cranberry juice 1/8 c water. No more than a half a cup of liquids each meal.
