I made it to the full liquid phase of my post-op. Yay! I can have Soup. I was never so excited about soup. I made Tomato Soup and thinned it out. I had 4 oz, ate it at a glacial pace. 20 minutes later the gurgling started and my new tummy revolted.

Am I just not ready for full lipids yet?

You just have to try other options. I couldn't eat tomatoes for a long time. But pea Soup was fine and lentil soup (you can puree) was great. Bean soup was also a winner. Later, once advanced to soft foods, I would take refried Beans and mix them with broth to thin them down. This slides down really well. Make it even thinner and you can call it soup!

Andersen’s split pea Soup was delicious. Very flavorful. Ate it all the time. When I needed a little something else I added green Tabasco sauce and it was delish also.

And another thought, Tomato Soup and Campbell's is the worst, notoriously HIGH in carbs, I would soon run out of fingers if i counted all the people who had their first " dumping episode" from exactly That!

Tomatoes are quite acidic, I was told by my clinic not to have that one, but the other cream Soups are fine.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
