After weight loss surgery (WLS) such as Gastric Bypass, Lap Band, or Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG), you will be allowed to upgrade to full liquids sometime in the first week. You may start eating yogurts, blended soups, and protein shakes. I highly recommend that you consider clear chicken broth, since you will get 6 grams of protein for every cup. This will speed up the repair of the abdominal muscles and give you energy and nutrients. No more measuring, drink as much as you can.
I suggest a sip-walk-burp routine on a ten minute timer. Take a sip every ten minutes, and then walk to move the air.

What type of chicken broth do you use? Don’t most broths and soups have very high sodium content?
Also how long before you are allowed to drive after ru n y ?
There are some low-sodium brands, however I made my own from scratch before surgery. The driving question should be answered by your surgeon, as it is different for everyone.
