It's supposed to be 90% less carbs. Kinda like biscuick I'm thinking.

I have heard of it, bought some but can't have yet not far enough out. I was researching recipes: carbquik recipes....all kinds of things.

Please keep me informed when you do use ????

I did buy this but only used in one recipe so far...it seemed fine...the family ate it an said nothing.

Good to know thanks ???? I'm starting to think that I should hold off on trying it as it may be a trigger for me.

I used to buy it when I was doing Atkins. It is, basically low carb bisquick that you can use in anything. It was great. Haven't tried it since surgery though, so I can't speak to whether it would disagree with me like basically all breads do now. Sorry I don't have more recent info.

Thanks for responding ???? I'm still to nervous to try.... I don't want a Gummy type ball in my stomach, hurting for hours ????

I had some before surgery during the medically supervised weight loss my insurance required. I made biscuits and lemon muffins with it. I threw out the rest before surgery. It did have an 'off' taste to it compared to regular recipes, but nothing so bad that I didn't enjoy it.

Like others, however, I haven't tried it since my surgery (sleeve) 9 months ago. I have thought about picking some up recently, but it only comes in large packages and I would only want it very infrequently at this point since I still have weight to lose and really need to save the stomach room for more nutritious foods.

I definitely do miss my bread ???? but will survive..

Tried it under year when I was doing Adkins.

Worked okay but led to bad juju for me as it opened the door to breads in general.

I'd always done best to stay away altogether.

Same thing said about the Adkins Snacks for me. Their snack bars were the undoing of my discipline.

That was during a hardcore 8 month Adkins push.

Now, though, it may be a product I revisit.

      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.
