Clear liquids - question



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 days post op and on Clear Liquids. Do you think it would be okay to cut a few chives into my broth? It is getting a little bland for my taste buds. I would call the nutritionist but its Saturday. Thanks for any help. Celeste

If it were me and I was 2 days post op I would not put anything otherthen Clear Liquids in my body...You do not want to jeopardize anything so soon after surgery. This is just my opinion

okay, I will tough it out. The nutritionist said I could try the liquid diet tonight so I will have potato leek Soup.

I lost 9.4 pounds on the pre-op diet but gained some back from the ivs. As of this morning, I have lost some of that so I am down 7 from the start.

I am hoping to get out and start walking more but it is so cold. I know I need to have a little more patience.

I didn't have alot of pain and I am a wimp. Today, I am sore - like I did too many situps (of course I haven't done 1 in 10 years). But there really hasn't been pain.

      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.
