cream of chicken soup?



Recommended Posts

Would you consider that a full liquid? I was so sick of everything being so sweet, that I bought some and mixed with skim milk. Know I should have called NUT, but think I'll just stop as the gurgling and rumbling is insane. Anyone else try it?

My surgeon considers it a full liquid...I blend it, strain it and add unflavored Protein powder and skim milk.

Currently I am enjoying a blended, strained Black Bean Soup with added 0% Fat Fage and Protein Powder....I just can't do sweet all day!

Of course, your surgeon and nutritionist are the last word!

It was considered a full liquid for me and I enjoyed it during that stage. Like @@SparkleCat I would add a scoop of unflavored Protein Powder.< /p>

It was a full liquid for me too as long as I took the chunks out or blended them up. Drinking something like this really helps!

It was on my list of suggested foods on full liquids, but you mentioned gurgling. I had temporary lactose intolerance for about 3 months after surgery. I suggest trying a lactose free milk to add to Soups and shakes. That gurgling could be a reaction to lactose.

I was told If it passes through a straw it is a full liquid. I ate cream of asparagus, cream of mushroom, cream of shrimp, cream of spinach, cream of chicken, etc., etc.... I diluted with Water, strained out chunks, and mixed with Unjury unflavored Protein powder.< /p>

I have a list of things I can eat and only low sodium broth is in it as far as Soups. My Doc doesn't allow any Soup until the fourth week! : ( I can't complain though because I have lost about 13 lbs in the past 5 days!!

I am a newbie to this, and just started stage 2. How much unflavored Protein powder and skim milk do I need to add, and do I have to add it or can I just eat it plain?

I would think a scoop of powder is enough, add it to your portion not the whole pot, and make sure the temp is below 140 or the Protein will clump.

I don't add protein to mine right now because my stomach is still struggling with protein feeling too heavy. I just add a can of lactose free low carb milk to mine, strain it, and then thin it out a little more and sip it like that. Once I can stand the protein feeling I'll probably add it, but right now I'm focusing on getting my Fluid goal daily. So you CAN eat it without the protein, but most add the protein to try and meet their protein goals while still on liquids.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
