Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted November 21, 2012 Hi Saddie I am also one that hates Soups. But ofter the surgery, I struggle with dehydration. So I learned to love Soup now. I do not like bland food so I would spice up the soup which really helped a lot. It also helped me with my dehydration too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Need-a-Sleeve 211 Posted November 21, 2012 When you say Fluid stage, I am assuming you mean full liquids, which means you can have things that aren't clear. My surgeon only allowed us to have things at that stage that could pass through a strainer. I love Soup so it was good for me. As for something that would taste more like a meal, that is going to be hard. I had a friend that drained all the liquid out of Bean & Bacon soup and heated that up to drink. I did that as well and even added some HIckory Bacon flavored salt. It was ok but not ideal. I stuck more to yogurts, puddings, Jello and SF popsicles in addition to my Protein drinks.
