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

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

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.

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.

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!

I’ve tried the Unjury chicken Soup. It’s ok. Not the best I’ve ever had. I just ordered the cream of broccoli from BP.

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.

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! :)

Hi vsgnewbie. I did blend a can of chicken noodle Soup in the blender. It tasted pretty good!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
