Ready2018 0 Posted February 1, 2018 Hi there! I’m going on 2 weeks post gastric bypass and I wanted to see if anyone else tried different foods. I know that there are many plans out there but right now I’m on the full liquid diet, next week is puréed foods. I was wondering if anyone tried Soups puréed them and thinned them out. My plan is the usualProtein Shakes, broths, carnation instant bfast, cream based soups. Has anyone tried a Soup from a supermarket that they make in house with chunks, puréed, thinned it out with broth and put through a strainer? I guess my question is, is any soup ok and not just cream based? As long as there are no chunks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess my question is, is any Soup ok and not just cream based? As long as there are no chunks? I have been on full liquids for a week. I made a cheesy cauliflower soup and it was amazing. The first time I made it I did not blend it enough so it was a little harder to eat. Second time I made sure to blend it a bunch. If the soup has chunks of meat I think that would be off limits. Besides that I think as long as you blend it a bunch or strain it you should be ok. Just remember it’s still a liquid diet not a purée diet. I have had cottage cheese and yogurt already. Technically soft foods but my dietician said it was ok. My dietician said recently someone came in with pain and nausea. Turned out a piece of Tomato skin got caught on a staple!! They had to go in and remove it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raffi 24 Posted February 1, 2018 I remember the rule was anything you can sip through a straw, BUT DON'T SIP ANYTHING THROUGH A STRAW!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve noticed most people have been told not to use straws but my doc says it can help with drinking slowly. 1 KMO1961 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
