Hi Georgia Girl,

I found your spaghetti squash recipe a few weeks ago and have made it once a week since. I love it and so do my kids - they think it is just pasta!

Thanks for the great recipe!

Pam

You're certainly welcome. I have come to love spaghetti squash. I didn't discover it until after I was banded. I honestly would have used it instead of Pasta before being banded. I'm glad you and your kids like it!

i'm on mushies sooo....

yesterday

b: Protein shake- made with Water

l: mushroom Soup (campbell's select)

d: mashed potatoes & creamed spinach (2oz each)

s: Peanut Butter chocolate ricotta cream (SO GOOD).

in case you want to know how to make the snack..it's a cup of skim ricotta, a teaspoon of vanilla, 3 splenda, tablespoon of natural peanut butter, tablespoon of Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup (or coco). blend well (i used a food processor). chill. this makes a lot (for one). i had 2 oz for snack and i probably have at least 5 servings left. You can make this with any flavor if you're not down with peanut butter.

today (so far)

b: Protein Shake lol (but made with skim today)

l: will be butternut squash soup

Snack: Protein Bar (easy to do when busy). 150 cal, 15g Protein

      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.
