Topic: Lemon Pie
Hi everyone!
I found this recipe for lemon pie that uses a premixed lemonade mix (like Country Time) and sugar. I'm going to substitute with SF lemonade and Splenda.
Now - it calls for putting it in a pie crust. What else could I use to reduce/eliminate the carbs? Its not going to set up enough to not have a crust of some sort.
Any ideas are appreciated!

Hi! I am Stephanie and I had my gastric banding surgery 11 months ago. I have plateaued of and on for the last 4 months and I do have restriction. I think I am at a point where I need to fine tune my food chemistry to lower carb/higher protein and am looking to this group for help with that.
With my current food regimen I struggle to get 60 grams of protein and to keep my carbs below 100...
I am 61 yrs old, married for 44 yrs, have two grown children and 7 teenaged grandchildren. My husband and I live with our daughter, SIL and 4 grandkids aged 13 (3) and 15. We are retired and enjoy an active social life and travel.
I still have co-morbidities, high cholesterol and borderline hbp and am looking to lose another 40-50 lbs by late fall to help manage both of those. My triglycerides are high too, so need some help with that.
I am thankful to have a resource like this to help me continue my efforts to regain my health!

Yesterday was brilliant, went into a local shop and bought a new waterproof fleece jacket in a LARGE!!!!!!! Janice is horrified as all my XLs will now have to be replaced (I love teasing her...). If only the vsg had been available 20 or 30 years ago, people in work are continually asking me if it was worth it, I find it hard not to become a bariatric surgery fundamentalist! Sorry for all the exclamation marks today!!
