Hello...My surgery on 25th. You guys sound like you're doing well, congratulations! I can't wait to join you on the other side

I'm 4 days out and able to drink some cream of mushroom Soup. I sip slowly, but I have no problems drinking it. Is it too soon for me? Anyone else move this quickly? I feel hungry today for the first time. I am drinking my Protein shakes and Water as prescribed.

opinions?

Cream soups are part of a full liquid diet so that is no problem (unless there are chunks in it )

It's a full liquid so should be okay and a nice break from shakes! I was able to drink it then. Congrats on your progress!

Is it on your doctor's list of approved things to eat and drink? If so, then go ahead and have it with any little bits strained out. If it is not, I wouldn't

I ate cream of every kind of soup I could find in my full liquid stage. I diluted it with water or milk, strained out the chunks and added Unjury unflavored protein powder. My big thing was I never drank/ate anything that didn't have protein in it. Even made popsicles out of protein shakes. After I hit 60g each day I would add in some herbal decaf tea or juice or vitamin water if needed to make sure I hit 64oz fluids.

I think you are fine as long as you strained out the chucks. I did like @@Kindle did, I added unjury unflavored protein powered to it.

How about yogurt?

My surgeon's nut strongly encouraged drinkable yogurt starting day 4. Plain Siggi's and kefir were the only ones I found not loaded with sweeteners and a bunch of other extraneous ingredients. I used Protein powder to flavor. Regular Greek yogurt was allowed once I was in pureed stage.....3 weeks out.

But every dr has different postop diet plans, so I'd check with yours first.

Thanks, everyone

I was allowed strained creamed soups day 3, as part of my full liquids.
