Hi there! I’m going on 2 weeks post gastric bypass and I wanted to see if anyone else tried different foods. I know that there are many plans out there but right now I’m on the full liquid diet, next week is puréed foods. I was wondering if anyone tried soups puréed them and thinned them out. My plan is the usual

Protein shakes, broths, carnation instant bfast, cream based soups. Has anyone tried a soup from a supermarket that they make in house with chunks, puréed, thinned it out with broth and put through a strainer? I guess my question is, is any soup ok and not just cream based? As long as there are no chunks?

I have been on full liquids for a week. I made a cheesy cauliflower soup and it was amazing. The first time I made it I did not blend it enough so it was a little harder to eat. Second time I made sure to blend it a bunch. If the soup has chunks of meat I think that would be off limits. Besides that I think as long as you blend it a bunch or strain it you should be ok. Just remember it’s still a liquid diet not a purée diet. I have had cottage cheese and yogurt already. Technically soft foods but my dietician said it was ok. My dietician said recently someone came in with pain and nausea. Turned out a piece of tomato skin got caught on a staple!! They had to go in and remove it.

I remember the rule was anything you can sip through a straw, BUT DON'T SIP ANYTHING THROUGH A STRAW!!

I pureed vegetable soup and strained it - so yummy, also black bean soup.

My doctor encourages drinking with a straw! I’ve noticed most people have been told not to use straws but my doc says it can help with drinking slowly.
