A lot of pt's like the mashed cauliflower...kinda like mased potatoes but not as many carbs...Here's a recipe for it

Mock Mashed Potatoes

• 2 cups cauliflower, finely chopped
  
• 1 tablespoon sour cream, or more to taste
  
• 1 tablespoon butter
  
• salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

1. Steam or microwave cauliflower until very soft. Put cauliflower in blender or food processor with butter and sour cream, blend.
   
2. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

I also really like steamed carrots and green beans until they were really mushy and put some of that spray on I Can't Believe it's not butter (seriously there's nothing in it...no calories, carbs, sodium, ...NOTHING) That gives it some buttery flavor without the guilt

Hope that helped!

Erin

Wow, I did horrible today, no wonder I am not dropping any weight. But now I have confessed and will do better tomorrow. Really think I am going to do better when I move to solid foods. Those eggs sat on my chest like a ton of bricks. Everything else just goes thru so smoothly.

Carbs are the devil...

To tell you the truth,I did think this band would be for a lifetime,at least that's what we are told at the orientation with the Dr.He probably forgot to mention,we will be paying to have new ones inserted every now and then through out our lifetime!

I'm not saying EVERYONE will have a complication, but there was a woman from India who had posted some information on another board. She says they've had the band there for quite some time now, and nearly everyone who's had it there for a significant amount of time has had some type of revision or removal of the band. Hey, maybe this is your complication and you're through!

But really, I didn't expect this to be permanent, to be honest with you. I just hoped it would last long enough for the next big medical miracle to come out. Heaven knows there's enough research being poured into it, with the new numbers on the lifespan of our children because of obesity.

Okay, I am back from my two week hiatus, where I have eaten anything and everying thing u can imagine!! I havent been posting and that been a part of my whole losing track situation. I need to stay motivated, I need to post my meals, I needs to be reminded that I need to walk and exercise and eat right and drink Water. I need U GALS!!

Teresita, please get on my asrh again about walking, smack me up a couple of times if ya have to... Lsasha, where u at gurl, lets get our walkity walk on. Ms. Skinny Stocky let me know what your doing so I can join in. Karen and Connie, come on lets jump rope in the parking lot, Lil Teresita, lets go to six flagssss.... I need motivation yall!!!! :faint: :faint:

I'm gaining weight back and I need to do something about it. I am gonna try my Protein train again since that is where I first started losing. But I just am not as gung-ho about it as I was in the beginning. :bored
