Recommended Posts

:thumbup: This is going to save me! As many of you...I assume...I love love love Pasta. I found a recipe on Rachel Ray's website that called for spaghetti squash, ricotta cheese, peas (you can substitute) and a jar of sauce. OOOOOH my....can I say it was delish....and "low" in carb....and almost just as good as my old plate of pasta. I didn't get that carb overload/coma afterward either. I had never tried spaghetti squash before....I don't know why...but now I need to research other recipes for when I have a spaghetti/carb craving! Just had to share.....yum!

I've always wanted to try it but I don't care for squash. Is it really that good?

I love spagetti squash to! I tried it for the first time last year after me and my VERY picky 10 year old saw it on Emeril we made a regular meat spagetti sause to top it with and we both loved it. Its even good alone with salt and pepper

you can usuallyget it at any local grocery store when its in season. Just cut in half length wise take seeds out ; rub with olive oil,salt and pepper. put in in a shallow dish cut side down in about 1/4 inch Water and bake at 350 untill soft then just use a fork or spoon to scoop it out.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
