Pizza I can eat!



Recommended Posts

I took an idea that I saw here in this forum and made it. It was so good I have to post this

One 6" flour tortilla (crust)

2tbls spaghetti sauce

2-3oz of low fat mozzarella

Other toppings

(I did pepperoni and olives)

I just broiled the tortilla till it was firm and slightly crisp pulled it from the oven and put my toppings on, then broiled it again till all the cheese was melted. It was so good I could believe it! So if any of you want pizza and can't handle even the crip crust try this!

Mine was approximately 500 cal (the cheese) so a little high, but on a day with a light lunch it's perfect :)

Just wondering, have you tried the lunchables pizzas? They have a tortilla like crust.. I don't like pizza or worry about wanting it after surgery, but this might be an option for those of you who love the pizza! :D

lunchables has processed cheese and meat that is loaded with sugar and chemicals. It is super high in sodium and because the meat is so highly processed it doesn't yield that great a protien amount either. To me stuff like that is serious junk food right up their with fast food. Now I do have things like that on occasion but not very often, certainly not as often as I crave pizza :)

There is also a crustless pizza you can make...

using ground beef as the crust at the bottom of a baking pan and put all your reg pizza toppings on it and bake. Very good & the only carbs come from the veggie toppings and sauce.

That crustless pizza actually sounds good.

Didn't know that about the lunchables, I've never had them but my fiance who I swear is addicted to pizza, eats it in all forms and I've seen those before.

      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.
