Straight liquid soup...Meal or Beverage?
So I guess i am trying to wrap my mind around this....The first week I did nothing but clear liquids. Second week I did clear liquids plus creamed soups....and so on. At this point I can eat soft foods according to my meal plan but....is a soup like say Cream of Tomato soup considered a meal at this point or a beverage? I mean you are told to drink all day....you pretty much drink soup since there is nothing to chew.
I think it can be a meal AND a beverage. For instance, if something has calories and protein, like a protein shake, I consider that a meal. But it's still a liquid, too.
