I just ordered 4 different kinds of Soup from NASHAU Nutrition. They are pretty high in Protein, 12g and up and low calorie. Most have pretty good reviews and a package of 7 is between $12- $13. Usually shipping is free on a $99 order but they had a one day only deal with free shipping on a $49 order. Has anyone tried them? I will "review" them when they get here.

No, but thank you for the reminder - I got a sample with an order of Protein and forgot about it! We can try together :).

Thanks for the suggestion! My problem with Soups is they just don't stay with me, and I'm hungry quickly after consuming them. So I just don't have any. My NUT said it is because it is liquid, and just goes right through. I suggest adding lots of solids (when you're able to have them) like veggies, meat...so it stays with you longer.

Well, I have tried all 4 of the Soups I ordered and they weren't too bad tasting. Mainly liquid but with the addition of some cooked veggies, they were rather filling though I DO agree they don't stay with you for very long.

I have had to stop using them however, for a while at least. They have TONS of sodium in them and after several days of eating one or two a day, my feet swelled up like balloons! I am STILL trying to get rid of the Water in my ankles and feet! I don't want to waste $50 so I may be ok if I limit myself to one or so a week.

Well, I STILL have elephant feet but they are slowly improving day by day. Since I can't eat this expensive Soup as often as I had intended to and LOVE soup even if it doesn't stay with you, I decided to create my OWN!

I ordered some unsalted chicken broth and dehydrated veggies from Amazon.com and they will be here tomorrow. I must have 50 different herbs and spices in my pantry that I can play around with. I also just got a microwave pressure cooker thingie (I have an electric one I use too) so I should be able to soften the dried veggies (hope so anyhow). I just need to figure out what kind of noodles will work. This will be trial and error for a while but I am confident I will be able to come up with something at least as good as store bought (and probably better) with a fraction of the sodium.

I am not familiar with the Raman Noodle thingies. Are the noodles and seasonings separate? They might work and are really cheap.

      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.
