Moving into phase 2 - thicker soups?

Hi!

Just wondering if you all had any suggestions?  What were you eating for the "thicker soup" phase?

Thanks.. Kelley

Kelley, I'm a Trader Joe's fan.  In the full liquids stage, I lived on Trader Joes Low Sodium Organic Creamy Tomato Soup and Trader Joe's Latin Black Bean Soup with a tsp of sour cream on top.  I also ate Fage Greek Yogurt because it's 20 grms of protein per cup.  By the end of the 14 days, I was able to eat 1/2 cup of soup as long as it was one of the above.  One day I tried a thicker soup by Campbells or someone and just couldn't tolerate it.  I tried to keep the sodium down as I wasn't drinking enough water to compensate.

Good luck!

Oh yeah!!  Glad you mentioned Trader Joes!  I haven't been there in years!  


Okay cool.. I was wondering about Bean Soups.. etc.. altho I never liked beans.. I'm craving them now!!  It's the oddest thing this surgery.. Beans!!

Okay.. and they sell the Greek Yogurt too?   I think that's the Yogurt I keep hearing about..


Cool!  Thanks!!

Ohhh cool!  I will!!   And, I love v-8!!  Hadn't thought that I could drink that!

TJ's carries both Fage and their own brand.  Very high in Protein and great during this stage. You got a great tip to use greek yogurt instead of sour cream.  I did that as well with some things.

Kell, safeway has good tomato bisque and creamy tomato and if you're going to use sour cream on top of any soupuse Greek yogurt(plain) insteAd. It tastes exactly the same! Love you sis!

Just a comment on the Fage yogurt - it tastes like sour cream and if you're looking for a less tart taste it doctor's up well with splenda and some sugar free syrups like torani. 

cream of mush or chicken or shirmp &. bean with bacon.
