I'm also post-op day 8- my doctor considers cream soups to be "full liquids" as well as pudding and yogurt. I have had some cream of tomato soup made with milk on Monday and it tasted SO GOOD compared to all the sweet protein shakes I've been forcing down, and I had some yogurt yesterday which tasted fine, but it was sweet to me. I haven't wanted to try pudding yet because of the sweetness. I've been drinking a lot of chicken broth that I made (way better than store bought) and really struggling to get in my protein these past few days. It seems I can get in my protein and not my liquids or my liquids and not my protein.

I took two weeks off- today is post-op day 7 for me, but I think I'll be up to going back to work next week. I do have a desk job though, an no little ones at home so I am getting plenty of rest and feel great.

I made this without the fruit for Memorial Day when I was doing my pre-op low-carb diet, and I thought it was wonderful. I used my mixer to mix it together because I do not like the chunky texture of cottage cheese, and whipped it for about 5 minutes, and it came out very smooth. Several people in my family are diabetics and they enjoyed this as well.
