Just had my first fill... don't feel any difference/ yummy soup recipe

[jingleboob 5]

6 more weeks until the 2nd fill... hope that one makes a difference!

Also... I don't remember who posted it, but I made the turkey taco Soup and it's friggin fantastic! I literally eat it EVERY DAY for lunch, and a lot of days for dinner. So easy, so delicious. You should give it a try!!!

Not my recipe... I got it from a post on this forum

1 lb ground turkey, browned with 1/2 chopped onion and 1/2 c chopped green pepper (I just got frozen... easy!)

Add to crock pot with :

-2 cans pinto Beans (drained)

-1 can black beans (drained)

-1 cup frozen corn (you can leave out if you're worried about the carbs but it's not very much corn in the whole pot)

-2 cans of Rotel tomatoes (they're diced with green chilis... the Rotel are actually better than the delmonte diced with chilis if you can get them)

-1 package of taco seasoning

-1 package of ranch dressing mix.

-I only added about 2 cups of Water and 2 cubes of beef bouillon for flavor... but if you want it soupy add more water

I put a spoonful of fat free sour cream in my bowl of soup and it's fantastic... even my picky family loves it. and EASY!!!!

I love that Soup but I make it with 93/7 lean ground beef. We just don't like ground turkey.

My dh hates ranch dressing but he LOVES this soup! I made it once on a camping trip. There were 4 couples and we picked a night for each of us to cook. I did this soup and they all LOVED it. There was none leftover.

How long do you cook it in the crock pot? I keep hearing about this soup and at first wasn't interested but now I think I need to try it.

Also is your doc strick on fills? My doc sayd 4 weeks between fills but if I go 2 weeks and still can eat whatever I want and as much, to call her and she will let me come in early for another fill. Maybe you should just call your doc and ask?

I left it in the crock pot for a few hours... it's all cooked by the time you put in the crock pot so as soon as it's all hot you can eat it, but I like Soups to really cook. A lot of people just put it in a pot on the stove for half an hour...

My doctor is fairly conservative with fills... slow and steady... I also have to pay for each fill so I couldn't afford to do it too often! I'll just be as good as I can and hope the next fill makes a difference... I've also read other people saying they couldn't feel their fill for up to a week and then the restriction hits so I'm optimistically waiting!!!

I just had my first fill too....and then I had my first unfill. The dixie cup of Water proved to be too much, the Dr took one look at me and said, Oops, I think that was a bit too much.

I, typically, don't know for sure how a fill is going to work for me until 2 weeks after. I don't know what it is, but exactly 2 weeks from the date that I had the fill, I either know I need another one, or know that I'm good. Right now, I'm almost 3 weeks since my last fill and am trying to decide if I need a slight unfill or if I should wait it out.
