Can you drink Isopure Fruit punch drink right after surgery?

 Wondering if this counts as clear liquid post-op.  I don't have my post op appointment yet and I am looking to stock the pantry, with my surgery date 8 days away.  I would like to use it the day before surgery, but is the dye a problem??

Any favorites for those first weeks after surgery (and before you can do shakes)?

I wouldn't think so....my surgeon told me to stick to reds and purples as far as dyes and such...

I agree with Thin Voyage.  It was actually listed as one of the items to consume on my program list pre and post op.  Also, you can buy by the case at Vitamine Shoppe as well as buy a single refrigerated bottle to sample the variety of flavors (about 8 or so differnt flavors).  I liked Alpine Punch before surgery, but post, I prefer the Mango Peach (and I hate peach drinks normally).

The Isopure ready made shakes are good too, when you are ready for full liquids.

Isopure was the first thing given to me out of surgery following my leak test.I had to drink two Isopures in one day to be discharged.  It is also the only protein drink I could have for the first two weeks.

Just make sure you are getting ISOPURE PLUS.  That stuff is actually pretty good.  Regular ISOPURE tastes like vomit.  No joke.
