Hey everyone! I'm getting pretty bored with my Protein shakes and Clear liquids...how soon post-op are people doing thickened Soups, like egg drop? It's protein, it's relatively clear, and it's delicious! Does it count as clear, though? Thank you for your responses!

That would be your doctors opinion but I had egg drop soup as soon as I was off clear liquids(4 days).

I did exactly that. I also added hot oil to give it an extra kick.

I had egg drop soup as soon as I could have thicker liquids.

Same here. It was the best tasting soup ever after all that horrible plain broth.

Egg Drop Soup was first thing I ate after having my band placed that was 4 days afterwards.

Good Luck on your new jounrney.

My surgeon hand-wrote egg drop soup on my instructions and I went for it -- to the point of making it myself. Delicious! And fun, too....
