beli 20 Posted May 31, 2013 Today marks the beginning of my 2nd week post-op. I'm allowed to have thicker Soups as long as there's no chunks. Well I'm reading over the plan as I run the Campbell's Tomato Soup through a strainer and I realize that it says soups but then in parenthesis it says (water, not milk!). I'm so confused. I'm going to call the doctor (they're at lunch right now, grrr) but I just wanted to ask - the Soup contains cream which is milk. I assume most thicker soups do too. Unless there's other choices I'm not aware of? What in the world can I eat then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LadyDiva618 359 Posted May 31, 2013 I used Campbell Soups for during my 2 week post op. I used fat free milk in my soups. My surgeon reccommend me to use milk because of the protien. I also added fat free plain greek yogurt to the Soup for addictional protien. I hope this helps. 1 mrsto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsto 2,925 Posted May 31, 2013 Same for me... Full liquids included creamy soups; Campbell's cream of potato, mushroom, etc. As long as I strained out the solids. I love Campbell's creamy Tomato, but I was told to avoid tomato post-op because of the acid. Greek yogurt wasn't allowed at that point, but frozen yogurt was. I think because the frozen yogurt melts to a watery consistency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beli 20 Posted June 1, 2013 Thanks guys! Unfortunately my doctor wants Soups with NO milk or dairy of any kind. However, I have found some good soups. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
