Soup Concoctions?



Recommended Posts

Okay..... That's good for me, i'm on full-liquids. I'll be trying the broccoli Soup today.

Thanks!

I hope you enjoy it. I love it and so does my DH. We have a 14 year old and she thinks she is allergic to anything green, but she loves the potato cheese soup.

Be sure to use the broccoli florettes as they have no stems and will blend better, without leaving fibers. And cook them until they are mushy tender.

OK I'm from the UK and not the most keen cook but like to experiment and your Chili sounds gorgeous Charlene!

Could you tell me wh at a Crock Pot is?

Would it be like a casserole dish?

A crock pot is like a casserole dish that plugs in and you leave it all day long to cook. It cooks slowly.

I hope this helps.

Thanks so much, Carlene. They look absolutely scrumptious! Maybe my new band will encourage me to cook more band friendly foods. Also thanks for uploading them. They worked like a charm! Hey, how about adopting me? I'm old and gainfully employed, so you would only have to keep me around dinner time..... :biggrin1: :hungry:

Kaylee's Mom...

I have an 86 year old MIL and a 14 year old granddaughter living with me, plus the DH and a Shih Tzu with issues. Would you like to withdraw your request?

LOL! Carlene, you'd be amazed at what I could put up with for a home cooked meal. Good one, dear....

Okay, Carlene, would you please come to Malawi and make some of these for me? Of course, its hot, hot,hot and dry, dry, dry right now so Soup may not be the best answer. Can you just come and cook?

I decided to have a Protein shake and smoked almonds for dinner tonight. Gosh, maybe I need to hire a cook - and I just fired my complete staff!!

Wow! You must be one homecookin' deprived woman!

Too bad you didn't know me pre-band. I used to cook Southern, and that means comfort food. I make fried chicken that is to die for, homemade peach cobbler, yeast rolls, cheesecake, the most wonderful Peanut Butter fudge in the world, German chocolate cake, a pineapple pie that is legendary around here, and coconut meringue pie - all from scratch, of course. Plus more.

My middle son claims there is a cooking gene and I got mine from his grandmother. His wife, he says, did not get the gene. To his everlasting sorrow. So he really looks forward to holiday and birthday meals at my house.

WOW....:faint: My mouth just fell open reading that list. Not much makes me happier than Southern cooking. Some of the ladies at work take pity on me. One brought me chicken and dumplings last week!!! Threw all the chicken in the magic bullet and I was good to go. I don't mind cooking for someone else, I just have a hard time doing it for me. I find it hard to cook for 1, even more so now that the portions are so much smaller. I'm pretty sure I'm missing that cooking gene also. :think

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
