YuMMy! Another recipe update

Hey all! I am starting my own cookbook, and I am starting to devote myself to WLS eating. Would it be okay if I put a "tip of the day" up about foods that I've discovered and such? I really like the way Amy does the question of the day and almost everyday I have found something new and yummy that my dietician says is okay for post-op as well as pre-op. (I imagine after my surgery I will find even more--the whole trial and error thing) Well, if no one would be opposed...I would like to volunteer for that! -Phoenix P.S. Here is one that I thought I would share=a really good protein drink! I bought the Wish Center's protein/vitamin drink, which you can get online at Wishcenter.org...go to the wish store and there they are (my dietician told me that 2 a day keeps the pills away ... Well, I also bought the Wish Center's shake cup--what an AWESOME contraption--It is perfect for "sipping" and has a little filter inside, all that good stuff. Well, today I discovered that I killed my blender, so I just poured the vanilla protein powder into the cup with 3 slices of frozen banana (i cut those up two nights ago and froze them in tupperware in my freezer), and then I added 8 oz. lactaid (i can't handle milk--even if i am preop) LOL. Then I put in a little bit of crushed ice and shook--this shake is GOOD!! Well, hope this helps--enjoy!

I say GO FOR IT! Anything to help keep the FL board active for all of us - old and new! Amy

Yup, be my guest on the recipe idea. I can always use some help. How about someone chiming in with some Thanksgiving ideas...I need one for the yams...or should I just use the brown sugar and eat very little? Hugs Rosey

Sounds like a great idea. I will be watching for new ideas in the food department.

Great Idea Phoenix. Looking forward to it. Wanda

Would love to have you do it. I am going to be banded one of these days and will need all the help I can get.

There is a brown sugar substitute like sugar twin that I use in cooking.
