Answer 1

It's called broth diet, therefore you're only allowed broth just go with chicken it taste the best...too bad you're not on the liquid diet cause then you could have jello ;) good luck

Answer 2

Follow your doctor's instructions. There should be a list of what you can eat and what types of soup.

The broth probably needs to be clear to not add bulk to your bowels. You can buy beef or chicken broth at the store. Don't add anything to it (no veggies or chicken or pasta or rice).

Be careful after surgery. You need to make permanent changes to your food choices or you'll regain your lost weight.

I have several gastric bypass members at the Kimkins Diet website. What they found is even with a small stomach they could still eat a lot of mashed potatoes, soda, sugar cereal, milkshakes, candy, cake, ice cream, rice, gravy, french fries, beer, rum, vodka, mixers and many other high calorie high carb items because the food just slides through the small stomach opening.

The surgery is permanent so you want to make sure it works.

These are questions you should be asking your doctor or his nurse so that you get the correct information. Each doctor may have a little different set of rules so if he didn't give you any type of hand out or clear cut instructions on what you can and can't have then you need to call the office and speak with his nurse and clarify this. People on here could offer suggestions but what if they tell you something your doc doesn't want you to have? Call and clarify this with your doc.

I was on a similar diet for other reasons recently so i bought one of those hand-held blitzes. The soups you can make with these nifty little gadgets are endless. My favourite is a tin of peas with garlic and a soupcon of water (a pun was intended). Some will give you wind.

Answer 5

Lap Band is safer even though it particularly is quite new and maximum insurance won't pay for it yet. examine which incorporate your provider. some years in the past no insurance could pay for GB yet now approximately all of them do. attempt to be in a supervised foodstuff plan for six months first. the cost of Lap Band is around $15,000 in case you pay money and a few medical doctors will finance.
