Hi Becky, Welcome home and happy healing! I had open RNY on June 15th. Sorry you had complications, but it sounds like you are doing better? Every program seems to be so different about what foods are allowed but on clear liquids, I am allowed Propel Fitness Water, Crystal Ligh****er, Soy Milk (diluted), 100% fruit juice (diluted), sugar free popsicles (melted in mouth first), clear or strained soup broth, Knox Nutra Joint (one scoop a day for protein)... They will add cream soups and Carnation Instant Breakfast in a few days. I don't think Sherbet is considered a clear liquid, plus its full of sugar and may set you up for cravings... Good luck! Jo
