Soup, anybody???



Recommended Posts

Ok so I'm having my surgery in 10 days. I've been thinking alot about what to do about lunch at work without letting ppl knwo my business and see me measuring stuff. So the idea of Soup just hit me!

does anybody know a recipe of a soup that includes Protein, good fat, and veggies?? I picture making a huge pot, measuring out my 1 cup in the morning, and just heating up at work.

lentis are a great source of Protein & very filling.

right now i'm making a chicken tortialla Soup w/avocado & habaneros....

google lentils - there are a many good recps... it's one of my go to's and always have a batch frozen.

chicken is a good source of protien too, I made a chicken veggie Soup, and even had it during my creamy period, just put it in my blender and whirled it till smooth was pretty good, better than protien powder that is for sure. The other thing I am doing is I bought some small containers, 4 oz and 6 oz and 8 oz, so that I could use those for lunch items. That way I am always getting the right amount. But you will figure it out.

      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.
