I'm 6 weeks out and I had the worst craving for wonton soup and I haven't had cravings at all, this would be my first... So is wonton soup not a good choice so soon after the surgery?

I had egg drop soup and then hot and sour soups 3 1/2 weeks out I are slow and had no problems it was awesome especially after all the cre soups I endured

I know those cream and broth soups can get a little boring... Thank you I will definitely get one tomorrow ????

A wonton wrapper is made of bleached flour..... I would say maybe drink the broth but no wontons :-/

I usually ask the server to hold the wontons and just bring the broth. I'm 2 1/2 years out, so I could eat the wonton, but then I don't have enough room for any of my entrée, and the broth satisfies my craving for the wonton soup.

Chinese food is my weakness although I don't have it often anymore I feel like I could eat it every day

@luv2plum : I was in Google looking for gastric friendly restaurants and coincidently "Panda Express" showed up, apparently they carry several items that are low carb, high protein, I also am learning to stir fry and use my new Wok, after doing research u found it is a healthy way to cook and u can omit negative items like corn starch, sugar, and not sacrifice taste, last night was my first attempt at Stir Fry Cashew Chicken and it was awesome , surprisingly it is very simple ingredients and only took 15 min between prep and cooking, I also made enough for 3 servings since my wife is very healthy and wanted some, and had 1 serving left for today

OMG ! Your a genius! Chinese food that we can eat and not feel terrible about it later ! Please keep posting cause that looks delicious ! Thanks

Lol it's not that easy, you have to be very careful and learn to identify nutritional amounts in items, and try to memorize in what amounts, this is where my wife comes in, she's a genius in math, you need a good kitchen scale (Walmart $10.00) and measuring tools ( cups, scoops etc..), and make Google and Siri your friend, the drawback is that you can't have things like Sweet and Sour, and breaded stuff, but good luck......

Laguur, please share that recipe. Looks amazing!

I had wonton soup in my clear liquid phase.... but without eating the wontons, of course.

These diets we go home with from our NUTS are guides but not etched in stone, it is intended for people who have no idea what liquid, puréed, soft really is, but once we get the hang of it we need to think outside the box, just in fluid alone I have over 9 choices of what I can drink and the worse one only has 1g of carbs, and none are sort drinks, if your gonna make a life changing commitment then you need to have a great inventory to work from, good luck all

@@laguerr13 Awesome please post more recipes.... I love cooking with my wok????☺️
