Default Check out your surgeon's diet instructions

I'm on clear liquids plus fat free milk for two weeks. I see my surgeon on July 5th and he'll clear me for mooshy food. I'm living on Propel mixed with water, chicken broth, SF jello and SF ice pops. I have snuck a few protein drinks in - I got Isopure from GNC because it is so close to clear liquid. I just was feeling so weak after walking, I needed a little more umph. And it was just 6 or 8 oz over an hour.

Anyway - you must find out what your surgeon wants you to eat. Mine requires 80 ounces a day of fluids. It is a full time job! And only warm broth is always easy. Sometimes even the water/Propel hurts a little.
