deemel420 got a reaction from Ninabnina77 in Coping with grief after WLSWow I'm so sorry. My dad passed April 28th last year. 1 week after my birthday, completely unexpected not knowing his heart was at 13% capacity. His death was followed by the loss of 6 more family members within the next 9 months. I leaned on food so much I gained 130lbs. I had my sleeve surgery on my 30th birthday last week and my follow up is this week on my dad's 1st anniversary.
Praying for God's strength and comfort as we continue to navigate grief [emoji178]

deemel420 reacted to HealthyLifeStyle in Chickpea "Pasta"Just here to let you know that I took some advice. I was craving pasta so badly. A few of you told me to try Chickpea Pasta. I was very unsure about it. I bought some, and it was in my cabinet for a couple of weeks. I kept saying that I would try it the next day for dinner, but then I would talk myself out of it. LOL
Well, I finally bit the bullet last night. I made chicken sausage, with peppers, and onions, then put it into low sugar spaghetti sauce. Boiled up some of the "pasta", and it was absolutely delicious! It was a little bit harder than regular pasta, but it took the craving away. Now I can experiment with it some more.
I love this site because a few of you have given me some great ideas to try. Thank You, and keep them coming. ☺️

I love ethnic foods, so I'm downing Ethiopian vegetables such as lentils, beets (chewed fully), collard greens, yellow split peas, etc. One restaurant serving lasts me for 3 - 4 meals. Will probably move to West African foods next week.

I steamed the heck out of cauliflower, mashed it and added a couple of table spoons of alfredo sauce.
Refried beans are great with a bit of cheese on top.
