Awesome Fall Soup!!



Recommended Posts

Hello,

Last week I did the 5 day pouch test just to get back on track and get rid of carb cravings!!! On the web site was a recipes tab which I found an awesome Lo-Carb pumpkin and Sausage Soup....!!! Before you say yuck... keep in mind it is lo-carb, it is rich in Vitamin A, Thiamin and B12..

1 cup has 15 grams of protien!!! I did play with the recipe: switched sausage for turkey sausage, switched heavy cream for fat free half & half and switched sour cream for fat free sour cream!! Does not impact Protein at all, just cuts some of the fat out.

Below is the link, this recipe is quick and easy and even my kids loved it!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this!!! I've been looking for a pumpkin Soup recipe with Protein to try. I think the sauges will go nicely becuase the seasoning in this recipe is not the more traditional nutmeg/cinnamon, sweeter type flavors. It's worth a try anyway. I also like your substitutions. I'll be doing that too. Thanks again!

Who did your surgery at the Barix Clinics in Ypsilanti, MI?

Thanks...I hadn't heard of the website. I am just a newbie still in the pre-op program with Kaiser - Southern California. I saved it as a favorite and the Soups mentioned sound awesome. I probably won't have my surgery until early next year, but I definately want to be prepared!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
