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.

      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.
