I'd posted previously about my love of flatout bread. Last night I cut one in half and made buffalo chicken on one half (wing sauce, canned chicken, cheddar cheese, sprinkling of ranch dressing packet) and sausage/pepp on the other (prego pre made pizza sauce, leftover sausage, turkey pepperoni, and four cheese pizza blend). At 8 weeks I could only eat 1/6 of a flatout...now I can do about a quarter, but am stuffed (e.g., what you see in pic is four meals)

Which flat out do you use for the pizza? Isn't there several of those flatout breads?

I've been doing that too, making two different varieties on one. And I've been doing those same combinations! (Plus, a pesto/ricotta one I got an idea from Egg Face.)

However, I've been having an issue with using the Flatouts and regular tortillas for pizza... how do you get the bottom crispy? The edges get crispy but the bottom in the middle is soggy and doesn't do well when reheating. I had read somewhere about putting it on a cooling rack on top of a cookie sheet but that didn't work either. Any suggestions?

I spray the bottom of it with cooking spray and that seems to help a bit. I've seen other coat the top, put it in by itself, then flip it over and do toppings

I rub a little oil on the bottom of the Flatout bread and it makes it a little crisper. I also use a pizza pan with holes in it.

I'm response on getting the flat bread crispy try putting in the oven first by its self with some olive oil brushed on the bottom of it leave in oven till crispy then add toppings that won't make the pizza so soggy then finish it off in the broiler on high for about 3 min hope this helps

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
