Pizza And Wings

[LapBandBarbie 5]

I've been banded 2 months now and everything's going great. I want to cheat on my diet tonight for only the 2nd time and eat pizza and wings.

pizza - is thin crust do-able? Anyone had trouble with this getting stuck?

Wings - anyone know how many oz of meat is on each wing on average?

would love any advice.

Thanks!

I was banded in January...I can eat thin crust pizza but usually have to eat is very slowly (small bites!!) and only one piece. I haven't tried wings. Good luck!

I LOVE wings!! But the skin is trouble going down, if at all. So I have to spit that out.

Yes, my dr told me to just eat the chicken - no skin at all

thin crust or just toppings for me, I love wings too , but tried buffalo nope, tried BBQ but I have sugarfree for so low it messed me up. I will eat a partial drumstick from KFC the grilled. and that works, there's just foods I still want, eventually in acouple years when things are more healed I will try again.

I can eat pizza if it's thin crust and well done. If it's doughy I'm in for trouble. I have problems with wings too, usually the skin. I guess it depends on the size of the wing, as to how much meat's on it.

pizza and wings ok for me. Although I would say that planning a walk after dinner would be wise. I can do 5 flat wings and maybe one slice of pizza was on a wing kick for about a month and actually lost weight eating wings.

If you are ok in kitchen, try baking flat wings. Mix 1/3 cup butter, 1/3 franks red hot thick sauce and one small capful of vinegar. Makes enough sauce for however many wings you want to cook up. Better than frying. If you can't resist crunchy skin, coat pan with olive oil and put under broiler for a few minutes. Yum.

Super crunchy thin crust is what I can handle. Breads and I are mortal enemies! The place we get it from can cook it "well done" which makes it easier for me get down.

We have a big salad that I use to help fill me up so I don't eat too much pizza. It's not a bad treat for dinner every so often.

chicken wings are my fav part of a chicken but I don't really care for buffalo wings. I haven't had any chicken wings (my fav is Popeyes!) since surgery. And I really don't miss them strangely enough.
