Okay... so I am 5 days out from my second surgery (there were complications) and warm broth goes down VERY easy... like didn't even have surgery easy... is that okay???  Other than watching out for sodium... is it all clear?  I could probably do 16oz in an hour if I wanted!  (I haven't, but I just drank 6 oz in about 10 min!!!)

Help?

No help needed- it's normal!
You don't feel restriction with liquids.. wait till you have your first mushie food, then you'll feel it!

Liquids give very little restriction and can pass on through.  I say if you can drink 16oz in an hour that is fine.  I wouldn't drink broth all day because of the sodium, but in moderation...great!

Okay!  I actually do have restriction still with protien... I can't imagine mushies!  I was really struggling with any liquid for the first 5 days... but it is getting much better!

Thanks!

I was sleeved the same day and I can also sip a lot of  liquids. I stop at 4 or 5 oz and wait a while and drink more. You said you had complications ~ I hope that you are doing better and the you have a quick recovery.

I have a question about broth. What are you using? Is it chicken broth out of a can? That sound awful to me. I had my surgery last week and haven't had broth since I was in the hospital.
