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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
