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.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
