Saturday SuperkalifragelisticXPalladosish Stuff
Had 2 protein coffees this morning, thinking about making me another protein drink. Got behind on my protein for the past few days because of pre-op prep and will again on Monday/Tues.
QOTD: My pre-op comfort food was carbs - crackers, potato chips, etc - I haven't figured out how to make them WLS friendly - lol - I just don't indulge very often now, and measure out how many I can have versus sitting with the bag or box on my lap!

I haven't tried them post op because it's still early for me but..... they do kind of melt away so I'm thinking they could be eaten like a crispy cracker. Of course they are made from potatoes so maybe they wouldn't really work for a WLS food....

I was a real party food junky-chips and dip especially.
I tried this recipe this weekend. I had 3 of the chips and left the rest to the boys. The dip is great on veggies, or a small baked potato, or to dip the whole grain crackers in. I used no fat greek yogurt and light mayo and it still tasted just like the onion dip I used to eat a whole carton of pre-op!

Hey Jody-
Spend the weekend bending over and picking up everything in your house and moving it to waist-level LOL
Seriously, it was a little while before bending over was comfortable for me. Luckily, I have the guys at home who I constantly called and asked to pick stuff up!!
Tuesday will be here before you know it!!
This summer is going to be so great without that hangy bit there!
I'm staying with my daughter in Brighton - I'm sure there will be things I'll wish weren't low - or even high!

QOTD -- PIZZA!!! Instead of ordering a medium Hungry Howie's double pepperoni and mushroom pizza to eat myself like I did pre-op.... now I make a Tortilla Pizza. Low-carb tortilla shell with a pizza built on top -- turkey pepperoni, mushrooms, sliced tomatoes and mozz cheese -- baked in the oven at 400 until the crust is crispy. Yummm!!! I've got a "pizza basket" in the fridge so I can whip up a pie instantly and be enjoying it 20 minutes later.
My Recipe Index is packed full of yumminess!
