This is the first time I've tried some "food". So here's what I'm eating right now:

1/3 cup Tomato Soup pureed with 2 tbsp medium salsa, then heated. On top I added 1/2 once finely shredded cheese (which is melting in the soup) and 1 tsp sour cream. Also added some ground pepper.

I never thought I'd be so freaking happy to eat some generic condensed Tomato Soup but this is actually pretty good. Oh, and the Soup is warm, not hot. Not sure I could do an extreme hot or cold yet.

Just thought I'd share

I'm not allowed tomatoes or Tomato Soup for the first month, but my first month is considered 'modified solids/full liquids' so I can have cottage cheese, soft cheese, yogurt, strained cream Soups, refried Beans, etc. Today was my first day for full liquids rather than Clear Liquids.

I did well at b-fast with 1 oz cottage cheese/1 oz unsweetened applesauce. However, I tried a string cheese at lunch and couldn't finish it - I'm not sure if the feeling was "full" or if it was just too much too soon on my baby sleeve, but I was able to finish 1/2 oz of it and 1 oz of sugar-free chocolate pudding. I'm going to try strained cream of mushroom Soup for dinner - an oz of that and probably another oz of applesauce.

Did you have your sleeve tues? You don't have to stay on clear liquids?

I was sleeved Weds - I only had to be on Clear Liquids for 3 days but now I have to be on full liquids for the rest of the month. My nut's definition of 'full liquids' seems a little more broad than others, though. I can't have tomatoes for 2 months because of the acidity.

I'm on clear liquids until my first followup, the 23rd. Honestly not sure if I could eat anything, Protein Shake is the only non clear I can have and it sis like a brick! Some clears do too.

Sounds yummy but I couldn't even think of having anything that spicy! Even black pepper bothered me. I"m 6 weeks out now though and still haven't had Tomato Soup. I guess it's time to give it a try! Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Also, my first two weeks I was on clear liquids and the 2nd two weeks full liquids....my surgeon is really tough! lol

The Tomato Soup was especially yummy but I've moved on to better things now. Currently I'm eating greek yogurt, applesauce and drinking Protein Drinks. I have tried pureed chicken but it's not one of my favorites. I only had to be on liquids after surgery for 48 hours. Sooooo happy to be eating!
