I am starting my creamed Soups tomorrow... I am 7 days post op and wanted to see if anyone can give me more options besides Cream of Mushroom or Cream of chicken...

Thanks..

My favorite is Broccoli cheese Soup. When we go out I order it if they have it and Subway has the absolute best Broccoli cheese Soup that is just the right size for me. It fills me up perfectly. I also like Wendy's small Chili. It is the perfect size too. I have all of a sudden become a "soup" person.

I like Panera's Lobster Bisque. I get it at Target.

You can make just about any Soup into a cream soup. Get yourself an immersion blender and go to town. I'm just getting started myself and one of my faves so far is clam chowder. Yum! Also doing lentil soup and Tomato. Only problem so far is that the carb count starts getting pretty high. But I figure for Stage 2, being a little flexible in that area will work itself out. Add a little nonfat milk or broth if it's too thick after giving it the immersion blender treatment! Have fun!

Oh, I've always been curious about the Cream of Shrimp! I love seafood and love Soup, but for some reason have always been skeptical to try that one. Let me know what you think!!!

Zupppa Toscana from Olive Garden. Someone mentioned here and i made it last night. It was delicious. Can be done easily & healthier at home, if you wish.I used skim milk & cornstarch instead of cream. It was Recipe at allrecipes.com

does it blend up well for us "full liquid" folks?

Did you mean Zuppa Toscana?

I don't know. I certainly hope so because I don't like canned Soups and hope this is a keeper for my full liquid phase. Do certain Soups not blend well??? I haven't had surgery yet.

I have to say the sausage, bacon & potatoes settle at the bottom of the pot. The liquid on top is delicious. That alone (strained) would be worth it to me. :)

Here is the recipe I used. Make sure to read the reviews. There are lots of ideas there on how to make it healthier.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
