Week 2 soups

[MichelleinWNY 0]

I am going into week 2 and I can start eating Soup. I am planning on making my own. I bought a cookbook for food but many of their Soups seem to have cheese added. Should I being consuming cheese at this stage? Or should I just subtract this ingredient?

All plans are different. When in doubt, contact your dietician or look at your bariatric food stage paperwork.

I’m in stage 2 now. Tonight i bought a Progresso low fat cheese chicken enchilada Soup. Heated it up then puréed it in blender. The best meal I’ve had yet. I had 1 cup and tolerated excellent. Converted to bypass 9/29 due to reflux.

Congrats on your surgery.

cheese can be a little rich for your tummy to digest at first so go slowly. I puréed or strained all the Soups I made or bought so no chunky or stringy bits. I also diluted it with extra stock or Water so it was easier to swallow/eat. Better to be gentle on your tummy to begin. Don’t be surprised if you can only consume a small amount at a time. I kept my Soup in a small thermos & would sip it over a couple of hours.
