I just made the most delish low carb zucchini lasagna! You just use strips if zucchini instead of noodles! It was so good and my family loved it!!!

Brown up a pound of ground beef. Add onion and garlic and sauté for a bit. Add can of spaghetti sauce and season with salt pepper oregano basil and bay leaves. Simmer as you prepare the rest.

Peel and slice thinly your zucchini and set aside. Use a container of ricotta cheese and mix it with an egg and the same seasonings as above minus the bay leaves.

Get a rectangle baking dish and scoop some of the meat sauce on and spread it around and the layer with zucchini. Spread the zucchini with the ricotta cheese and then layer with meat sauce. Add another layer of zucchini and repeat. I did three layers. On the last layer top it with mozzelrella cheese and bake. 400 for 15 min and broil for 5min.

Yum, I love zucchini lasagna - I add mushrooms and I use ground turkey mixed with ground turkey sausage sometimes. You can also do something similar with eggplant, you just need to salt and drain the sliced eggplant first.

      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.
