Recipes
Hi Kathie, most of us have had the gastric, there is a site for lapbanders that might be able to help you. This will be my first Thanksgiving as a loser and I cook the dinner every year, my sons come over here from Nashville that Saturday and we have out dinner, then I go there for Christmas.
Go to the top of the page and click on forums. Go all the way down and click on show all forums. Click on the layband site. I think you will find some really good ideas from them. There is also a forum for recipes, I may check them out regarding cooking food that I can also eat. Let me know what you find out. Love Kathy
Hey Kathie, check the cooking and baking board as well. Go to "show all forums" and then go to the one on the bottom left, it is about halfway down the first column if I remember right. I am not a pumpkin fan but it is a Thanksgiving tradition and the messageboard has several really good recipes. I have made the one that is like a pumpkin pie but made with a kind of pumpkin fluff instead and everyone loves it and I even tolerate it okay. Good luck!
