bonbon85 8 Posted January 13, 2012 I am almost 18 months out, 151 down and 90 to go. I can eat almost a whole can of progresso Soup (16oz). Is that bad? I am talking about the ones that are mostly liquid like italian wedding, not like the high Fiber chili. How fast does Water run through the stomach anyway? When i drink water it does not take me long to down like a 20 oz glass. Am i alone in this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa :) 231 Posted January 13, 2012 I wouldn't say that's "bad"....it's mostly liquid. I can generally eat more Soup than I can solid meals. As for the water/liquid...I'm only two months out and I can guzzle water....it just goes right through me. Sounds to me like you're doing great!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MINI-Me 196 Posted January 13, 2012 I don't think it is bad ... lots of room for liquids to go down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wishes 125 Posted January 14, 2012 I can drink a 30 oz passion iced tea from Starbucks in less than 10 minutes. No worries, when I am eating solids, I barely get in more than 2 oz. I love it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soup-a-Woman 43 Posted January 14, 2012 Soup does go down easier for sure than other things. That's why when I make soup I include a strong Protein in it, and usually, my Soups have 2 Proteins in them. Maybe a meat as well as a plant-based Protein like a grain or a legume. I have several examples on my soup blog. I still can't eat a full cup of most Soups, if it's one of my own soups, at least. But I would probably be able to eat much more if it was a blended soup or one with not much substance to it. I make and eat a lot of soup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rosiegirl 6 Posted January 16, 2012 I'm almost 4 months out .. that's basically all I live on -- Soup SOUP SOUP ... I, too, can have a full can of soup, but usually blend it in my bullet so it's pureed since I try to have lentil soup a lot since it's full of Protein ... I usually buy Amy's vegetable lentil soup and puree it in the bullet and add some vegetable broth for more liquid and some added flavor, and then heat and have .. it's deiish! Sounds to me like you are on the right path ... keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
