[lesleyjean]

Have any of you had low fat soup on the milk diet?? If so did you make it or buy ?? xx

 

[Neeta]

Weight Watchers soups without any root veg in them are the best.

Good luck with the Milk Diet. XX

Knorr packet soups like super chicken noodle aren't bad nor are some of the ones foud in the fresh aisle chillers

well carrots are a root veg so i guess not

 

[Tatiana]

If it's a prepack soup then, depending on what your diet sheet says about veggies you may be allowed carrots!

My diet sheet says low calorie, low fat soup and also gives a total daily allowance for calories, protein and carbs so I make sure that I stick within that as ell.

Isn't the milk diet just drinking milk then? I did the low calorie diet which was proper food just not very much, but I thought the milk diet was just 3 pints of milk a day?

 

[Tatiana]

Karlos,

It all depends where you are treated as it is for all things we go through during this process!

My trust offer 4 options for the diet
-5 pints of milk only
-2 pints of milk plus 4 pots of yoghurt
-4 pots yoghurt, 4 cans soup and 200mls milk
-900 cals low fat/low protein/low carbs solid food diet

[Karlos]

Oh right. Well I reckon I'd stick to canned soups rather than home made as you can easily see what the nutritional values are on the labels

 

[lesleyjean]

No its 2/3 pints milk, 2 low fat yogurts and low fat vegetable soup in moderation??? Plus 3/4 portions fruit. All that said apparently I cant have root vegetables ?????

 

[lesleyjean]

ha ha ha ......I think I'm confusd already !!!!

 

[Tatiana]

Check with your dietician as if I choose the food option then almost all veggies are banned except leafy greens and cauliflower!

Karlos, I do use 'made' soups as it's easier to pull a can out of the cupboard and I've already worked out all the ones I like and don't !
