It was my staple. Make sure you avoid any big Egg Clumps - you may want to strain it (which is what I did). It had so much flavor. By the third day into post-op liquids I wanted something flavorful. Egg Drop Soup was my savior.

Great question, and Leslie, thanks for the advice. I am not banded but saw this post and had to read it...I love egg drop! And surprisingly, I can make it myself and it's not so bad!

Does anyone know a good way to add the egg so the clumps aren't as big when you make it yourself? :cursing:

I am three months post op and it is funny you should mention it. I am eating some now. It still remains one of my favorite meals.

Don't get your broth TOO hot (not a rolling boil) and beat it like crazy with a fork as you add the beaten egg to the hot broth. You'll get minimal clumps. I lived on this in the beginning. You can use all manner of different flavored broths as well.

The wonton Soup is fine as well...just don't eat the wontons (Chinese). The Japanese chicken broth Soup is fine. Strain it though - it usually has chives and mushrooms.

I sent DH out to get Chinese some nights. He had the food and I drank the soup. I had the Japanese broth when we went out to eat about a week post-op...it was really good too.

After two days on broth, I was gagging. I survived by straining canned Soups, pea, lentil, chowder, stews and egg drop. It was fine, I wouldn't have made it otherwise.

Did egg drop Soup also, probably 3 days after surgery. Before that I didn't really want anything to eat/drink.

I still have it on the "after-fill" days.

I had egg drop Soup A LOT during my first week post-surgery all-liquid diet. I tried it from 3 different restaurants. It saved me during that time, but now even the thought of it makes me gag! Too much of a good thing I suppose.

      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.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
