I'm a big chip eater well former eater and I've been searching alternatives for like dips and such...would you say homemade baked tortilla chips is okay....everything else seems to be high in carbs

yes I use regular corn tortillas, and use a spritz of virgin oil. with sea salt, and bake them. I tried that low carb brand of tortilla and they sucked

Have you tried making cauliflower crackers instead of using chips? I use it for my Pizza Crust, but if you spread it thinner, you can cut the crust into chips and toast them until they are crisp. Almost zero carbs, still crunchy and they go great with dips and cheese.< /p>

My basic recipe is one cup cooked, chopped, and well-drained cauliflower mixed with one cup low fat cheddar cheese and one egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder and oregano. Spread really thinly on a sprayed sheet tray and bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes. Let cool. Cut into crackers and crisp under broiler or in toaster oven. So much healthier than tortillas.

Chicken fajitas on lettuce wraps rather than tortillas - grilled chicken breasts' date=' grilled onions and peppers, reduced fat cheddar cheese, guacamole and plain Greek yogurt (instead of sour cream)[/quote']

This sounds so awesome! I literally can't wait to have lettuce wraps! I've been craving them for weeks. By the end of the month I can. I will definitely be making this!! ;)

Yep. I use the same recipe. Last night I topped it with a couple tablespoons of homemade pesto, shredded rotisserie chicken breast, halved grape tomatoes and fat free mozzarella and stuck it under the broiler...chicken caprese pizza!

      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.
