Please help me out here. I have a lack of understanding about "cream soup". Does that mean like a can of Tomato Soup made with milk? Does it mean black bean Soup that has been puréed! What about pea soup or broccoli cheese soup that has been puréed?

Ok then what bought types and brands did you find to be most tasty when blended? I'm not much of a canned Soup lover. I could use some help on this subject. Thanks

Cream Soups to me were anything like Cream of chicken, Cream of Mushroom (blended), Cream of Cheddar, Creamy Carrot, Broccoli Cheddar (strained) or Tomato. I ate a lot of Cream of Chicken on my full liquid and pureed diet.

I've never liked Soup, but after the two week pre-op diet and a few days of Clear Liquids, I have really enjoyed the cream of chicken soup. My nut said to go with the healthy versions, but I've been alternating between the regular and lighter versions of cream of chicken soup. I've been doubling the milk, and blending it to make sure any chunks are pulverized.

That just means Soups that have more consistency than broth. Any Soup not broth (beef, chicken, veggie broth like you cook with) is a "cream". Tomato Soup, cream of chicken, mushroom, cheese, French onion, etc. My favorite is Tomato soup. When I get to the point of solid foods (I'm 6 days post-op) I will be making cauliflower "grilled cheese" and tomato soup so I feel like I'm indulging [emoji23].

The one I've used in the past is by Buzzfeed if you ever want to look directly at the recipe! The only thing I switch out is the cheese used for change and regular parmesan not vegan!

I am starting the cream Soup phase now. The issue is what you use to eat and what you can eat now has changed. I loved cream based can soup's but I am having a hard time with them now. I now make my own from scratch and they seem to taste and go down better.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
