Soups

i am thinking way ahead.

i had my VSG done on the 14th. It's been mostly good since the day after. When I get released to the next stage I would like to make my own soups. I have both a nicer blender and an immersion blender. I am hoping for recipes or sites if you have them. I just want to be prepared and I don't rally care for the cream soups that are canned.

oh and I'm officially on the losers bench, down 19 since Jan 5th. 7 since surgery. Yay!

Had mine on the 14th also feel good! Down 20lbs sense march 1st ! Keep up the good work

Yay!

Grats on joining us other "losers"! I had tomato soup and hot and sour soup with all of the usual solid ingredients strained out of it. Also, my grandmother would make stew for herself and vegetable soup and save the broth from those. I will say stew blended and lightly watered down was delicious, so was cheesy, broccoli soup.

Sounds yummy!

i have my eyes on a cream of carrots soup recipe I found!

I've gained since surgery, I've only had liquids I just don't understand this.

it'll come off, mine waited a few days to come off then bam. Don't give up:)

Some people do gain a bit of weight in the hospital, due to things like IV fluids and the gas that's used to inflate your abdomen during surgery. Stick to your doctor's plan, and it'll come off!

That's exactly what my doc said

I would go to chains like Panera and Zoup! and get something non-cream or noddle based (like turkey chili) and blend it to liquid with an immersion blender.
