But, I won’t lie, after 4 days of no food or liquids, it was fucking amazing.

    Hoping for your recovery.

    I had surgery in December. 3 days clear liquids prior to surgery and nothing to eat day of surgery. That first tray of clear liquids the day after was like gold 🤩

    Ive had a couple stomach surgeries. When you see this, it’s like Heaven. Ask for the frozen treats next.

    that shitty orange juice in a pot hits different.

    I know from experience that the chicken broth tastes like the the water from an abandoned NY hot dog cart.

  7. KaleidoscopicColours

    I’m feeling hangry just looking at that

    I’m sick right now and this looks quite appetizing

    I been there multiple times, it sucks,, hope you got better

    Oof, my dad was on a “chicken broth and jello only” diet while he was in the hospital and he hated it.

    Hope you get to have real food again soon, and have a speedy recovery!

    For the doctors or GI enthusiasts here, why is it that a “clear liquid diet” that it’s the first meal you get after surgery? Or put another way, why not solid foods?

    Do they have you on prednisone? Because I found out that makes me RAVENOUS. Foods I hated I would devour. I can’t stand grits, I demolished grits. I hadn’t eaten pork in 4 years, but when they put a porkchop in front of me I didn’t hesitate for a moment. I almost wish I had gotten to try more foods while on it. I’m normally a pretty picky eater, it was pretty cool to want to try anything.

    And that liquid diet was fantastic! Could have downed a bucket of that broth.

    Had to do a lotta clear liquid recently. Pho broth is your friend

    I spent almost a week in the hospital with nothing to eat when i first started showing symptoms of crohns. seeing this was one of the best days of my life lol. Iykyk

    I spent four years in and out of the hospital I can’t even guess how many times, at least a dozen a year for days or weeks on end, and I became very familiar with this diet. Beef broth, apple juice, tea, jello, popsicles, Italian ice. Hope you feel better soon!

    Hope your tomorrow is brighter ✨️

  17. Ok_Steak6110

    Speedy recovery, OP. Clear liquid diets are rough!

  18. I_Love_Knotting

    i HATED my liquid diet when i was in for chron‘s. i hope it tastes better for you ;-;

  19. HamLiquor

    Ayy you and me both tonight and probably again tomorrow! Good luck!

    They always give those little plastic orange juice cups with the foil lids in hospital and it’s one of the few things that I can honestly say can be trusted on the tray, because it does taste just like OJ out of the carton. The jello though I have never tried.

    ​

    Problem is they never keep the fuckers in the fridge due to sensitive teeth patients.

    Diverticulitis? I’ve had it three time and ended up in the hospital in April, almost needed a chunk of my intestine removed.

  22. Maru_the_Red

    Feel better soon, OP. I’ve been there before and I tell ya, that first real meal is a godsend. Don’t over do it though. If you eat too much, too fast you’ll get sick.

  23. OMGCamCole

    Had a bowel obstruction last December and spent 3 days having my stomach pumped.

    No food for 3days and on the 4th when I could finally have liquid they forgot about me and I only got tea lmaooo

    Afterward was a week at home of only liquids and purées. After about 5days I was chewing food and spitting it out just to have something lmao. I feel for you

  24. intro_verite

    This is exactly what I had after an emergency appendectomy. That broth hit so hard. Hope you’re feeling better soon!

  25. I was on one of these last year, and that excitement when they came in the room with the tray….

    Unfortunately for me, it turns out that IV stuff screws up my sense of taste. Even water tasted like snot, and everything else tasted burned (and not in a good way).

    Fortunately, just the smell alone was nice, and I did recover enough for it to taste wonderful….after I’d left the hospital. 😀

  26. Sailorm0on27

    How I felt after a pancreatitis attack lol, no foods for 3 days once I saw the broth and other liquid diet entrees it was like a steak dinner in my eyes I was STARVED. I hope you heal up quick hun💗

  27. Tsukiyaki_Kid

    Hopefully you’re okay dude. Get better!

  28. cowboyflowerz

    Had this happen to me, it was a relief to eat something again even if it was broth. Hope you have a good recovery!!

  29. ArmaniChil

    Hang in there I was in the situation exactly a year ago. It takes time but it does get better. Take your meds! Don’t mess around!

  30. Edulseblaalsearht

    Hope you get well soon and get some good to treat yourself.

  31. Crunka19

    I’ve been there. Vegetable broth or chicken is where it’s at. Beef tastes awful. Don’t forget about popsicles too. Get well soon!

  32. MommaGuy

    I feel for you. I had to do two weeks of no iodine so no processed foods of any type. Worst two weeks ever.
