I am posting for my mom as she is learning about the internet and message boards. I used to date someone who had had bariatric surgery and she talked extensively to Mom about the surgery and told us about this site.  Now Mom has had weight loss surgery but she is unable to get out of the house to attend support group meetings and I have been encouraging her to use the interent to find support.  I have had her look at all of the available forums and groups and have posted introductions on the ones she has chosen and this was one of them.  It might be just the hook to draw her in!  Thank you for having a recipe forum and I hope mom will soon be posting on her own.

Ok so do you only use the 1/4 cup boiling water to make the gelatin?

 Thanks for the review, Gail!!  I'm so glad you guys loved them - and the KIDS!  That IS amazing, sometimes!

I'm searching for dense vegetarian proteins as I'm supposed to be eating this first.  Does anyone know if Boca ground will do the same thing as dense meat? 

Also, looking for high protein / low fat / low carb / low calorie recipes (that I could use meat substitute in)... I've done a few internet searches and all the reviews on the cookbooks aren't good... just wondering if anyone has any info?

Thank you in advance!

My husband loves pumpkin & I bought soy flour  & pure pumkin puree thinking I could make pumkin bread/muffins/ or  cake that would be WLS friendly.  Any recipes?
