Share Your Soup, Stew, or Chili Recipe!



Recommended Posts

There will still be some hot days this year, but the weather is changing. The cooler days and chilly evenings can trigger cravings for comforting, hearty food, but it does not need to come at the expense of your weight loss surgery diet.

Soups, stew, and chili can be healthy and filling comfort foods. You can make big batches ahead of time and store the extras. I also like them because they are super flexible; you can change the recipe to make them with almost any ingredients you have on hand.

I like them all, but I think stews are my favorite. They are less watery than Soup, and more comforting to me than chili. I like just a simple stew with leftover cooked chicken, canned tomatoes, and diced veggies, all cooked in broth. You can make it thicker by adding Greek yogurt when you serve it.

What kind of Soup, stew, or chili do you like to make that fits into your weight loss surgery diet but also hits the spot in terms of satisfaction and taste?

I make recipes up as I go and love experimenting but anyone who likes this can make it to their taste. My husbands favorite is a crab bisque. It is loaded with lots of Fresh crabmeat, FF milk, white wine, Old Bay seasoning to taste, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, mild cheddar cheese and a little hot sauce for kick. I love winter foods.

I found a low-fat pumpkin Soup I plan to make tomorrow, in keeping with the season.

I'm Asian Pacific islander and almost always make a tamarind base Soup. Very tangy :). I add whatever vegetables I have but usually napa cabbage or bak choy, chopped eggplant, tomatoes, onions, garlic and/or ginger. The main recipe is called "Sinigang", and some put pork and others put fish in it. It's very versatile.

P.S. It's super low calorie/carb since it's tamarind fruit base broth.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
