pre op liquid diet ideas and help

[aseret 9]

So I'm confused on the liquid diet, my paper work says I can puree canned Soup, can I make my own soup and puree it?

I know every doctor is different but I don't want to screw this up...and like everyone have an easy recovery after surgery.

HELP... I need drink ideas for pre op! I grow bored of the drink mixes quick, would like to hear about your more savory options. I'm not much for sweets.

It was very difficult to drink in the beginning, but it’s a little easier...yes you can make your own Soup, but it’s just broth you need, the Bone Broth they sell has much more Protein, I also was able to eat sugar free ice pops which I still eat...I hope I helped

For me it was broken down into Clear Liquids and full liquids. Clears was just that, any approved liquid that was see through. Soups were ok if clear but had to be strained. On the full liquid diet any Soup was ok but still had to be strained. Puree'd soups wasn't allowed until that stage, "Puree".

I was allowed Jello, and Jello pudding (sugar free). Mix that up with unflavored Protein mix......

Are you sure you can have pureed food? If I recall, that is a separate category than liquid. Post op, puree comes after liquid. But if it's a light Soup, maybe it can count and liquid when pureed
