rcz1966 7 Posted October 24, 2011 I have yet to be banded but am wondering about whether I will still be able to eat mixed Soups, like vegetable Soup for instance. I know that a person is advised to avoid liquids at mealtimes so I am wondering if having a mixed soup is advisable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

garyb464 0 Posted October 24, 2011 my doctor said to avoid liquids like Soup as Soup will pass through your band and you will eat more than you should because you won't feel full.he advised me to stay clear of watery foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
THEgeorgiaPEACH 3 Posted October 24, 2011 Soup will go down perfectly fine! That's the problem. You'll still be able to eat it though, I just wouldn't recommend it in excess! Cause like the people above me stated, it passes right through the band, so you'll end up wanting/needing to eat more to stay satisfied for 3-4 hrs! Hope this makes sense & good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vickyd 24 Posted October 24, 2011 I eat Soup - I had some gumbo today - but I try to make it "chunky" with lost of Protein and veggies...that way it sticks with me longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bromo 17 Posted October 24, 2011 I love Soup. But have not had any since coming off mushies a few weeks ago. I would think that homemade soup would be a good one as it is more solid than soup, at least mine is. It is not something I plan on eating on a regular basis, but I am not excluding anything really from my diet other than processed carbs and sugars. So an occasional bowl a soup is in my future.

Your doctor is mistaken! Soup fills me up and keeps me full for hours! I usually eat less than a bowl...sometimes only a cup! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
