Homemade Veggie soup



Recommended Posts

The weather changed here in Vegas again & it has been raining. And I had a horrible dental appt this past Monday that has decided to keep giving me heck.....so I thought it sounded like a good day for some homemade veggie Soup. I'm running out of things that sound good but also that I should be eating. Instead of all the stuff I could eat but shouldn't. :)

I loves me some veggie soup! There's is nothing (except lima beans) you can't throw in there. Love it.

Hi Shelley,

I'm from Vegas too. I had made a huge pot of chicken veggie Soup a while ago and froze the extras in quart size ziplock bags. It was perfect when I got home tonight :-)

I just froze a huge baggie for another night and still have some in the pot. Leftovers tomorrow night I guess. I'll probably take it for my lunch tomorrow too.

Are you one of Dr Umbach's patients??

I'm an Umbach'er. I though he did a great job. Not forthcoming with information on his own, but will answer any question asked thoroughly.

I have those mason jam jars. The 8oz ones. They are perfect for storing Soups in and putting them in the freezer. On my way off to work, I grab one and by lunch, it is ready for the microwave.

Ohhh, you guys are inspiring me. I don't think I've ever had so much sodium in my life and it feels like I can't even pee! Some home made veggie Soup would be so much better. I'm so bloated today I couldn't get my knee high boots on. I even have the low sodium broth, it's just that between it and the Protein Powder there's still way more than I normally consume. I was even up a pound over my pre op weight yesterday. today i have a headache and it's either the sorbitol sweetener or the sodium (rolling eyes).

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
