elcee 3,341 Posted October 29, 2018 Why buy something you can make yourself. Homemade Soups are far tastier than any you can buy and they are so easy to make. All you need is stock, veggies , herbs and spices and a blender of some kind. pumpkin Cauliflower Broccolli Tomato let your imagination run riot 5 MargoCL, ProudGrammy, FreetheSkinnyGirlinMe and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MargoCL 677 Posted October 29, 2018 it is not only less expensive to make your own Soup it is healthier. I bought some Soups and not $100 worth, far less and I can tell you I still have more than 1/2 left 2 FluffyChix and Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnA92212 577 Posted October 29, 2018 I tend not to buy from the site. I make my own using my crock pot or Instant pot. The ones you can buy tend to have too much sodium or even soy. Soy is bad for me since I have PCOS. I make Soups and then freeze them in individual containers. I pop one out for lunch for work or even dinner. 4 Frustr8, CyndieRI, FluffyChix and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creekimp13 5,840 Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) Make your own Soup, AND put some BariatricPal soup on the shelf. Sometimes it's nice to have a variety of flavors in an on the go package. Homemade soup is a staple at my house. Loves it! Veggie, split pea, bean, crock pot leftover soup, chicken.... But it's awfully handy to have some Soups in the cupboard that are grab and go.

gabybab 696 Posted October 30, 2018 I'm not sure, but I have purchased a lot myself to tide myself over the first month. Surgery in a couple months. Hope someone comes along and has a review of them. I have heard that Unjury makes the best chicken Soup. Good luck! 1 %^& reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tracy1978 113 Posted October 30, 2018 I was forced to buy about 200 worth of food from my surgeon's office. I ended up throwing most of it away. Maybe its just me but I found the Soups and shakes to be gritty and bland. Huge waste of money in my opinion. If I were you, I would buy a container of Protein Powder and add it to homemade soups. 3 1 %^&, Beachladee3, gabybab and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vsgnewbie77 41 Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) Do you guys add Protein powder to your Soups? Or do you blend meat and other sources of protein in? I'm still in the full liquid stage (Stage 2) but I'm getting sick of the protein powder flavor if I add it to my Soup ( I use an unflavored one but it still has that aftertaste) Any tips would be appreciated!
