I don't like cream of whatever Soups alone. Butternut squash Soup is divine, however.

Cream of chicken was my favorite too, but I did mix it with skim milk and added Protein. Tomato basil was good too.

I love this line:

http://www.imaginefoods.com/products

You can find it at Fresh Market or Whole Foods (or I imagine most other "gourmet" grocers), or you can order online. They have the 16 oz or 8 oz sizes and they keep for a week. The creamy Soups have no lumps at all and are delicious.

Just saw those when picking up chicken broth & SF popsicles. Maybe next week:) I have my 2 week f/u appt tomorrow.

When you say you can only have 2 oz, do you mean that's all you are ABLE to eat or that's all you're supposed to eat? Because I can already have way more than 2 oz of Soup in one sitting...

How far out are you? I am about 12 days and if I can get 1/4 cup in, I'm doing great!

I'll be a week out tomorrow. I can do about 4 oz. of Soup for a meal. Granted it takes me about 1/2 hour, but still :)

Don't worry. Some people's stomach swells more post-op than others. Just because you can down 4 oz. of soup now, it's no indicator of your final portion sizes when you get to solid food such as chicken or fish.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
