Question:
I had the LapBand surgery on May 23rd. I'm still on liquids can I use any type of ...

soup if I blend it up? I 'm starving and I don't like the creamy soups anymore since I had to eat them 2 weeks prio to my surgery.    — kbcelliott (posted on May 26, 2007)

You may need to contact your Doctor and ask these questions. Here is a website you may want to see to help answer your question. http://www.obesitylapbandsurgery.com/diet.html

Unfortunately, every doctor has different orders. You have to follow your doctor's orders. For me, even though mine was RNY, I was allowed any soup as long as blended and was not high in fat.

You are at the full liquid stage and anything you can blend up to go through a straw should be ok.

Hi... what I did was taking some of the lower fat soups, add some nonflavored protein powder to them and then blended them in the food processor... worked great and tasted wonderful.... good luck to you.

Rebecca took my answer. :) Be sure and contact your nutritionist; questions like these are what they're there for. If it helps, we've all been there. It is hard, and right now you have zero perspective on it, but the liquid stage is such a short period of your life. You can do this.
