All good advise above.  I lived on Popsicles, broth, and jello for the first two weeks!

Highest WGT-295, Surgery WGT-295, Goal WGT-215 - 80LB LOST in 8 months!

My doctor's office MADE us buy their stuff for the post-op liquid diet. But besides water, it's 4 servings per day of liquid protein stuff. Their chicken broth and beef broth, protein powder for protein shakes, and hot chocolate is what I chose off the menu. I'm really hoping I don't have that strong sweets aversion. That was my hang-up, I got the only flavors I liked, but the flavors I like are sweets. Who knows what I will want after surgery? I spent $100 on stuff I might not even be able to stomach. But to answer your question, they told us to eat 4 servings of protein liquid per day for two weeks.
