Is egg drop soup okay during the 2 week liquid phase?

I'm struggling to make it through these two weeks. I am sooo hungry. I do not want to break the rules though. Is egg drop soup okay during the 2 week liquid phase?

    If you are on clear liquids, then probably not. If on full liquids, take the egg drop soup and eat broth, or mix in blender. Ma

    Call your NUT or Dr's office. I had a coordinating Nurse from the hospital who I could call whenever I had a question. She was quite helpful. I would think that egg drop would be ok if you are transioning from clear to full/smooth as soft eggs were one my early list.

    My nutritionist said during week 2 post op, as long as I strained out most of the big chunks of eggs I can have egg drop soup. It's the chunks that you need to be concerned about.

    You should definitely contact your NUT or doctor to make sure. Every program is different and should be followed to the best of your ability.

    I was also advised to strain the soup and then it was allowed on my plan. Good luck!

    Thanks everyone. I drank the broth and avoided the egg. It was filling and helped me immensely. This two week liquid diet is the hardest part of this entire process in my opinion. I'm grateful I didn't have to do the liquid diet before the surgery.
