Egg Drop Soup Today

So.....I tried egg drop soup today, homemade even, hubby made it for me. And it actually went really well. Ate about half a cup of it and was full! :thumbup: Now this is not only a feat in and of itself, but chinese food? Half a cup of chinese food and I'm full?!?! :blush::angry:(PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!) Never ever happened before in my whole life!

I'm also right now spening the days building a cookbook for me and mom from various websites of bariatric friendly recipes and other things we can eat. Everything from snacks, meals, desserts and even holiday dishes. Now, since I'm getting all of this off the internet, some of you are probably wondering why my mom isn't getting them for herself. Well, there are a couple of answers to that question: 1) she's my mama and I love her, so I'm doing it for both of us, and we'll both benefit, and 2) she's not very computer savvy. She can turn it on, play games, check her email, and that's about it. God love her. I hope to have the cookbook finished by the time I go back to work. That's the plan anyway. But we all know how plans turn out sometimes don't we? :thumbup:

Well, I guess that's all I have for now. Just mainly wanted to let you all know that I had my first resemblance of "solid" food today and it felt and went down great. Love you all my bandster family. Talk to you soon.

me too! I lived off egg drop soup after surgery and still eat it a lot after fills! I get it from my local Chinese restaurant and would love the recipe! Could you post it?

Dirttrackdiva...could you please share your husband's recipe for Egg Drop Soup? I'd like something "good" that I can have after fills, or for when I want something different. I also feel that the Chinese resstaurant version of the soup is most likely filled with sodium and/or MSG....neither of which I want.

Thanks so much!
