salad is a slider for me. With or without dressing. I know others have said the same.

Just because it is a slider food for you it is not for everyone. I still have to eat salads slowly or they will get stuck. This is a great way for people to get in their vegetables. There are no vegetables that are bad for you even if you consider them sliders.

I am not able to eat salad at all. No matter how much I chew, it just doesn't work out well for me.

I ran across this site the other day and it reminded me of what cheryl2586 posted here, now mind you we can't eat all the stuff that they suggest on the site, but there is some really good ideas like the salad one: http://thedecoratedcookie.com/2010/10/a-mason-jar-meal-my-6th-pfb-challenge/

Here is a trick to eating salad everyday for lunch. Make a few jars on Sunday night and just grab one to bring to work every day. When you're ready to eat' date=' just shake it up. The key is to make sure the dressing and the Leafy greens don't touch.[/quote']

That looks good and its a great idea. What's in it.

Why couscous

Couscous is the only Pasta that is packed with Protein. Makes a great addition to any salad.< /p>

One more question too... Do you weigh the vegetables as you put them into the jar for Portion Control?

I would measure a cup and that is it.

What kind of dressing do you put in the jar? I love this idea! Thank you for sharing it!

I do not use fat free anything but if you want fat free that is okay too.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
