Topic: RE: Nervous
I think it is very normal to be nervous, I still have a week to go, I am getting so excited again but as soon as the end of next week comes I will start to stress, and of course the day I go into the hospital I will ******vous wreak.

Everything will be fine, wishing you an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery

For me it will be clear liquid week 1, full liquid week 2, puree wk 3, mushie wk 4 and regular diet week five. So I guess that makes it four weeks to regular food.

Topic: RE: clear broth vs stock broth
I think the clear broth is strained and the stock broth has bits of stuff in it. Hope that helps.

Topic: RE: clear broth vs stock broth
I am not sure what the difference is I am on Full Liquids for 2 weeks with my pre-op diet.  I just have a limited amount of calories and carbs per day and need to have at least 90 grams of protein.    Now after surgery I am on CLEAR liquids for the first week.

This probably didn't help at all

Topic: clear broth vs stock broth

Does anyone know what the difference is and does it matter.  I had heard that the stock is more flavorful but not sure if it has something in it, I shouldn't have during my pre-op diet.
