Hi everyone,

Just a quick question - I'm on liquid/creamy strained soup diet and was wondering if Panera's Broccoli Cheddar Soup is acceptable at this stage.  

 

Thank you!

I was curious about that myself. I figured if I had to ask, it probably isn't, so I haven't touched it yet, but it is very good.

I suppose if you strain it. I'm not sure about the nutritional stats of their soup, I'd be worried about it not settling with me so early out. I wouldn't think it has any protein in it, at this early out if I was unable to eat at home I'd take a ready to drink protein shake with me or detour by a walmart/target/cvs/grocery store and pick one up instead of a panera bread.

Boy, I just don't know about it.  Wait until Monday to call and then in the meantime eat the strained soup you know you can have.  Many people will say it's ok, but that's a tricky one!  Now, remember everyone has a different plan and some will say yes, no, gee, hmmmmmm.........We weren't't allowed tomato soup even because of the acid.  Let us know what you find out.  Jane

I don't know if it's a taste thing or because I know this would make me feeldevil.    It looks really rich, which is one of the things that still makes me feel sick.   I'm sure there are plenty of people who are quite happy eating it - but I wouldn't even at 8.5 years out!!!

Of course it has a high fat, sodium and carb content (cheese sauce) and it's just not enough bang for the buck for me ...

Depends on your plan.  I was on full liquids, so I guess I could have had it if I strained it.  I wonder how much fat is in it, though?

I'm just thinking, since broccoli causes gas in most people, its not something I would've wanted to risk that early out. Ouch!

Thank you for all of your replies/advice. I will certainly ask when I am at my follow up appointment in Monday. For now I will stick to my protein shakes, jello and broth.
