Wonton Soup

[Jdege13 0]

Hello!

I had surgery on 4/22. Feeling great, but I cannot stand the thought of drinking another Protein shake!

So, I ordered wonton Soup a couple time, and the broth is so delicious. My only question is, could I eat the wontons? They're so soft and mushy so I feel like if I chew it until it's almost gone, I should be ok. Thoughts?

If you’re on full liquids then you should be drinking full liquids if you are allowed soft foods I would avoid it the wonton shell is all carbs and we are supposed to be low carb.

But every program is different maybe call your nutritionist and see

I've read on here about people chewing and chewing until it was puree consistency...and being okay... I wouldn't risk it personally. Can you puree them?

If you are still on liquids only stage then don’t eat the wontons. The stages are designed to benefit the healing of your tummy & digestive system. Eat too much or eat the wrong food you risk doing harm or delaying your healing.

I would maybe only eat the wonton filling in the soft food stage. Purées are that sloppy thick Soup consistency i.e. still with a high liquid content. Chewing & chewing something won’t get it to the right purée consistency.
