4 days out drinking cream of mushroom soup, too soon?



Recommended Posts

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.

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.

I was allowed strained creamed Soups day 3, as part of my full liquids.< /p>

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
