Raynbolite 302 Posted October 17, 2016 I tend to be able to eat a bit more Soup than any regular food, during meals. I'm not over doing it by any means and I'm staying with the calories,carbs, and Protein counts. I eat slowly with baby spoons. I eat my 1/2 cup portion with solid food meals and am quite full, but with Soups I tend to go a little over to feel that full feeling. Do you think soup is a slider food? Just wondered.

trekker954 421 Posted October 17, 2016 Soup isn't even approved by my plan, I'm not sure why since its so easy to eat. There are a couple of things not on my approved list, but I've seen on others list, that I have eaten on occasion once I passed two months post op. I don't find it a slider at all, and homemade, I make sure there is more shredded chicken than typical, so it fills me up fast. I know not to try the creamed Soups.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzzzzz 1,005 Posted October 17, 2016 Since Soup is liquid you and won't stay in stomach long, it will take more to feel full. And it won't last as long. Most folks say liquids go right thru, but they fill me up, even Water. A different full than with solid food. I love soup but mostly eat solids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raynbolite 302 Posted October 17, 2016 I make my own Soups usually in a crock pot...mostly so I can shred the chicken for my hubby who can struggle with it. Maybe I'll make it thicker, extra chicken to increase Protein and fill me up faster. I was just wondering, thanks for the responses!!

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted October 18, 2016 Eating Soup is the same thing as drinking with your meal, so if you are supposed to avoid that, you may want to switch to straining the soup, drinking the broth, then eating the solids from the soup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PorkChopExpress 821 Posted October 18, 2016 Chili has proven to be, for me. I really have to measure that out and be careful, because it goes down so quickly (not a lot of need for chewing) and the fullness sneaks up on me fast. I like it for mixing with the Protein Powder, but I just have to be even more aware of my speed when I eat it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
