Got my Pancake Fix



Recommended Posts

I have tried recipes for Protein pancakes / waffles (even from Eggface website) and just never really found something I liked. I have never eaten pancakes or waffles very often, but now that I am eating Breakfast at home instead of drive through fast food :( I wanted to try real Breakfast food occasionally. Anyway, I found this package mix at Target - http://birchbenders.com/shop/protein/. They are really pretty good! I actually make mine in to waffle sticks (with a Baby Cakes waffle maker). I use sugar free maple Syrup and a couple of slices of bacon. Not something I would eat every day but nice for a change.

Just thought I would share....

Great info as I too was craving pancakes. I got the Heart Smart Bisquick and added powdered Protein. Nice to know I can get a pancake mix with Protein all ready in it. Will try this when the other is gone.

That's a nice find. Lately I've been using the Kodiak Cakes Protein pancake mix that I found at costco. Similar stats but made with whole grain wheat and oat flours which I prefer when I can find it, and I usually make it with milk or buttermilk to boost the Protein another 4-5g. Either would be a good thing to put into the Breakfast rotation. I usually add a couple of turkey bacon strips or chicken sausage links to get the protein load up around 30 g for the meal, or top them with a few berries and greek yogurt.

I bought the BirchBenders at Whole Foods a couple of months ago when it was on sale. I wasn't as fond of it for pancakes, but I enjoyed using it for pancake bites (using Eggface's recipe).

Wow.....I used to love pancakes.

These may come in handy when I overshoot my goal weight and am trying to maintain or add a couple pounds back on.

Right now the carb count in them is just not to my liking.

One day, however, I'll give these a try.

Have you ever tried pancake bites? They're great for when you're craving a bit of carbs but don't want to overdo. I like them plain, but the toppings she suggests won't rack up a lot of carbs.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
