Clear Liquid Diet

  • Band Patients:  Non-carbonated clear liquids for the first 24 hours after surgery
  • Sleeve/RNY/Overstitch/SIPS/ESG:  Non-carbonated clear liquids for the first week after surgery

The ultimate goal of on clear liquids is to consume 48-64 ounces per day, from the recommended list below.

In order to prevent your blood sugar from going low and give you a little energy, you should be consuming diluted juices (2 oz juice/2 oz water) or diluted non-diet sports drinks (2 oz beverage/2 oz water) every 3 hours. (Total undiluted juice should be no more than 8 ounces in a day –  that equals 16 ounces of fluids once diluted.)

  • Diluted Fruit Juice (2 oz juice/2 oz water)
    • Grape, cranberry, or apple ONLY (100% juice or no added sugar)
  • Diluted regular Gatorade or Powerade (2 oz beverage/2 oz water)
