Surely your doctor must of given you dietary directions for after your surgery. FOLLOW THEM ......being as you have only been banded a few days .....you should be on Clear Liquids, this would mean NO Tomato Soup. Do not risk harm to yourself or your band by eating foods that are not allowed just yet, this is a healing time for you. Seriously don't push it, take it easy and let yourself heal and follow your after care instructions.

Do what your doctor told you. Each has a different post op plan! :) Tomato Soup is very acidic and salty and high in carbohydrates and sugars so it's not often a "go to" Soup in many surgeon's books. Follow your post op directions; your surgeon knows what works for HIS patients.

I was told to be on full liquids which included cream Soups if you blended them, so I had cream of mushroom, cream of potato, and cream of Tomato. It was wonderful. Just make sure that you blend everything so there is nothing that can get stuck. Hope that helps!

Follow YOUR post op plan and you'll be fine. Each person is different, and heals differently.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
