liquid v mush



Recommended Posts

I'm confused. How come creamy Soups blenderized are liquids and not mush when other stuff blended is mush? I'm doing fine with liquids but can I have egg drop Soup blenderized? Is that a liquid or do I need to wait until day 7? It says milkshakes are ok but that seems like "food" to me! I'm confused. For now I guess I'll stick with Protein Shake and Water and just have some of the egg drop soup broth.< /p>

Hey lovecats.

I am exactly where you are with this. Our Protein shakes are thicker than egg drop Soup, right? I was banded last Mon. (9/26) and I will admit that last Friday I put some beaten egg whites in my clear chicken broth and nuked it for a minute, thus making a weak version of egg drop soup. I felt fine. I care for my disabled mom and I have been taking the campbell Soups, straining it, puree the veggies/noodles for her and having the broth myself. Last night there were a few tiny pieces of carrot in it and I just blended it up.

Another member on our site was banded the same day as I and she said she is allowed yogurt, pudding, etc. I think it depends on the doctor. My doctor put me on liquids because 1) gives things time to heal 2) makes sure I'm getting all the nutrients needed 3) gives me a psychological "break" from dysfunctional eating habits so that I may begin "anew" with my new lifestyle and relationship to food.

Bottom line, it's probably best to call you Dr. tomorrow and ask his opinion as to how liquid the liquids should be.

Hell, I'm a compulsive eater, I can make a frickin' brownie liquid if I wanted to, LOL!!!

Keep smilin', we are on the bandwagon finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!
