Since I have been on full liquids, I have been starting to crave real food and creating my own creamy Soups with straining out the bits of food. I hope this helps some of you who want something tasty besides Protein.< br />
1 can Campbell’s 98% Broccoli and cheese Soup
1 package of Bear Creek Potato Soup Mix
1 quart of chicken stalk

I mixed the broccoli and cheese soup with 1 cup chicken stock for a creamy soup, then added 2 tbsp of the potato soup mix and brought all to a boil. Once it was done, I strained it and enjoyed my easy and tasty dinner. There should at least be a cup
Leftover for tomorrow. This was quick, easy and helped with craving home cooked meals.

Is this a post surgery meal?

Cuz if so, you guys need to realize that package of potato Soup has more bio-available sugars/starch available than a slice of white bread. So it will hit your gut like a punch or it could! And if you are pre-op it will absolutely stop you from shrinking your liver. It would absolutely send me to dumptown in about 30 minutes.

I love the idea of the soup, but using potato flakes = instant potatoes = highly bioavailable sugar is not the way to do it. You'd be better served using REAL butternut squash, or roasted cauliflower blended up to thicken it. Or simply use real broccoli (which could cause a crapton of gas).

@fluffychix honestly, I didn’t even think of that. I do like the butternut squash or cauliflower idea better. Thanks for the suggestion!

      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.
