what else can I have on clear liquid diet



Recommended Posts

You need to drink low sodium broth. It is so much better.

I always check for low sodium ones because if I get regular,

they are way too salty for me.

If You have a GNC, you can get unflavored whey Protein Powder and mix it in crystal light or sf lemonaide, or anything sugar free that you like.

is there any way to get Protein into the broth? I was told if you mix protein powder in it, it will curdle or get lumpy.

I want to low calorie soups!

My doctor sells Healthwise Soups and broths packs. They have 15gms of protein, and you can put them into a regular Soup, or just mix them with hot Water.< /p>

I started Liver Shrinking diet on May 6th Surgery is set for May 14th. I have done well so far have lost 9 pounds. The Unjury Protein Drink is the best I have found so far. I go over the information just about everyday to try and understand the stages I will have to go through. I will be so glad when I can eat some solid foods LOL.

I believe that all doctors are different so I would say ask your doctor and follow his instructions. My liquid diet consist of sugar free beverages like crystal light and sugar free kool-aid, coffee, tea, Water with sugar substitute, broth all varieties, sugar free popsicles for the first and second day then I advance to Full liquid where I can add low fat strained cream Soups and vegetable juice. Good Luck on reaching your goal and please keep in touch as every post I get helps me on my journey as well.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
