Post Op Liquid Diet

[BeaBea]

Hi there, as you know I'm newly post op and forgot to ask the dietician if it would be okay to have for example an oxo cube in hot water or spoon of bovril just for a change. Any advice?

I would have thought so .....becareful of the oxo as they quite high in fat....if ur still unsure wait and ask ur providers xx

yep totally fine. Anything liquidy and not too high in sugar/fat x

I had lots of Bovril straight after my op. Also Campbells beef consomme. Yummy.
Enjoy pet.

I too had Bovril and Oxo very soon post op and was fine....it makes a nice tasty change, especially when its so cold XX

This has made me very happy as I'll find it warming and comforting. Thank you, deep joy.

I also like my squashes warm. I recently discovered from Sainsburies: Spiced berry cordial, from the Green Bottle Company. 5g sugar per 100mls as diluted - I dilute it a little more as it's quite strong. It tastes very much like mulled wine!
Delicious!

I like their elderflower cordial too. Again I'd dilute it more than they say as it's very strong.

Avoid other similar cordials as they have 3 times as much sugar!

I had some chicken last time the family had fajitas, it was nice at the time but I think it was a bit too spicy for me I had tummy ache for a while and then "visited the facilities" several times over the next few hours lol XX

Yes I do tend to avoid spicey food, it doesn't yet agree with me. I was very upset earlier this week after a little bit of take-away curry. Shan't be having it again for a while. But my recipe has minimal spices, its just tangy and tasty.
