I had shredded chicken, marinated in Italian dressing. and I'm about to have some Dannon Light and Fit yogurt to take my meds with. However, I take off for St Louis again tomorrow, which means I'm back in the territory of traveling and well meaning co-workers. Ya'll pray for me.

Just trying to tempt you with other things, Marie. You're not tempted by brussel sprouts??? How about some nice broccoli?

[New Hope 37]

I love those and most vegetables. I think I've eaten up all the junk food in the house by now. Is there a Betty Ford Clinic available for Bad Bandsters?

Actually, I'm very tempted by brussell sprouts. When I was originally banded, I craved asparagus. Now I'm dying for a steaming bowl of them combined... throw in some carrots & cabbage, too. When I was at my lowest weight, I was eating massive salads every night jammed with heaps of veggies. I can eat pounds and stay healthy. Then I married a man who cooks real food in huge amounts and gained 130 pounds.

Do any of you have problems with cabbage? Ive had it three times in the past month and each time I had problems with it going down. SLOWED my eating down fast!

Lisa, I love that stuff too. I can even eat it RAW.

Regarding cabbage; we have a very simple way of fixing it (if you like it uncooked too) shred the cabbage into a bowl and sprinkle vinager lightly then add some seasoning to it.... thats it.

Like you, years ago I dieted & ate tons of salad and lost weight. I kept a bowl of this cabbage stuff in the fridge and munched on it when I would have the munchies.

But ohhhh, the gas!!!!
