Can someone pls recommend me a Soup in a can that we CAN have.... Low sodium low fat...

I'm desperado!!!!!

Google Low sodium low fat. Walmart has some and if you have a trader joe's by you, then they have some as well. Add plain Protein to it to get your protein count in. Good luck.

I bought Campbells light cream Soups, and added fat free milk instead of Water for more Protein.< /p>

Post surgery full liquids I was told I could have ANY strained cream Soup and not to worry about fat and calories since your intake is so minuscule. I have been having Campbell's or any generic cream of potato with a little pepper. Yummy!!

I loved (and still love) campbells beefy mushroom...minus the small chunks of beef. Added Isopure unflavored Protein Powder, tossed it in a blender and was good to go! Cream of potato to...cream of all most anything really. Campbells has a good selection of 98% fat free

Don't worry so much about the sodium unless you specifically have issues, or at least I should say you probably aren't going to need to worry about it much.

I liked to make my own, and it isn't hard to do - take chicken broth or beef broth (lamb is OMG) and make "trinity" combos - like chicken, celery, carrots, onion and then take the chicken out, blend it, strain it, and then food process the chicken, adding the blended veggies in that. If you have a vitamix or know someone who does that will make a pure out of a tire Iron if you were so inclined, they are EXPENSIVE but make amazing Soups and smoothies and such.

Also try things like she-crab soup and canned oysters, pureed with lemon...good, good, good!

Also you can take squash, mint, canned chicken, and currey and almond milk and make an amazing thai 'cheat'.

Be careful with your protien powders, over 130 degrees and you denature the protien.

      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.
