Choices of liquids



Recommended Posts

I'm have a time with the choices of Soups that will help me through my 2 weeks PO sleeve. I have been drinking low sodium chicken broth, no sugar popsicles and Jello, Gatorade, Water, and Protein Shakes. I was wondering if I added Tomato Soup, in there to give myself a different choice, would it be wise? Another thing how do you take down the 64 ozs without feeling too full. #POSLEEVEDAY5 #DOWN9LBS

8 days PO... Tomato Soup is awesome but not according to my new gut. I can't keep it in. Everyone is different. Just try them all until you find what works.

Hey Ed! That Tomato Soup didn't work for me either after taking in 3-4 tablespoons! So I stopped and got me a 1/2 Water 1/2 Protein Shake. Egg drop Soup holds down pretty well. I' PO day 7 today.

Hey Zombie! I spoke with my surgeon's nurse and explained to her that the most I was able to get down was 40+/- and she explained to me that I should strive for the 64, but if 35-45 was all I could tolerate, just to work it in little at a time and slow sips of course. I'm PO 7 days today. I did my 1st-mile walk today, and I have been able to get down 54 ozs on yesterday, shooting for the 64 today, still working, but I might not make the 64 oz marker today, but I am working on it. Keep striving. Use the drink reminder so you can at least try every 15 minutes or so. Keep pushing!! We are all in this together! 💪

Well, guys after diluting the Campbell's Tomato Soup, my belly did not like it after the 3rd or 4th tablespoon, so yeah, I discarded it as well. I will just stick and duke out this next 7 days like a "G"! I got some egg drop Soup, and I made veggie soup today for the family, but I will still hold off on taking any of the juices in. I am still trying to get the 64 ozs completed. I did complete my 1-mile walk today, as my goal was set for today. 11 oz Protein Shake, and Water for the rest of the day for me!!

Tomato Soup may be to acidic for your new stomach. High in carbs and sugar. Try low sodium chicken Soup and strain out the broth to drink and give the rest to the family or dog.

I did Campbell’s Tomato, I cooked it with milk instead of Water and then strained it. Drank 4oz per day and no dumping

A Minor Miracle, Campbell's Tomato Soup is legendary for its HIGH carb content! Most people seem to dump like a 🚚 Truck.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
