The woes of soup

I don't think this affects bandsters but it does RnYers. I love soup, always have but I have notice since surgery that I dump on both Campbells and Our compiments soups. I couldn't figure out why. Now I know. Heinz and Alymers soups contain much less sugar than does campbells and Our compliments. I did not think there was that much of a difference but there is. There is I think 26 grams of sugar in campbells tomato soup but only 12 grams in Alymers. I dump on too much sugar and apparently there is too much in those soups. Just thought I post this for other RnYers.I dump on milk too so the combination of campbells tomato soup and milk is a certain dump.

I mildly dumped today on whole wheat crackers. I need to be more careful. By God it keeps you honest though. Not really always in a good way either. LOL I eat at home.

Hi Maggie

I am not a big soup fan and really got sick of it after the puree and liquid stage- so I dont do it - its a slider food where it is a liquid you can just keep on sippin and not get full further out.

I guess the closest I do is chilli but its chalk full of protein and complex carbs so its a good bang for my healthy buck.

What are you doing to get in your protein each day - are you tracking how many grams of protein you are getting- it is so important -  your body/health will kick ya in the butt bigtime if you are not getting in enough protein - I learned the hard way!

Are you able to tolerate protein shakes ? I have started making mine very icy and quite similiar to a Tims Ice Cap - make all different flavours but it sure makes sure I have one or two a day - they have no protein taste so they are like yummy milkshakes !

Keep in touch
