Craving Pizza?



Recommended Posts

Hmmm... I was dying for some pizza this weekend. I found this recipe http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/deep_dish_pizza.html and it turned out really well. It also reheated nicely. I froze some too, but haven't gotten to see how they will reheat yet.

I use a whole wheat tortilla, bake it in the oven for a few minutes until it's slightly crisp. I then put marinara sauce, shredded cheese, mini pepperoni, and veggies on it. I then bake until the cheese is melted. I slice in 4ths, eat one slice, then fridge for later. I put it bake in the oven to reheat.

This sounds interesting, but I'm a crust kind of person. One of my favorite things lately is CocoPops, a kind of cracker that has the texture of cheese puffs. It's multi-grain, has 1 gram of Protein, no fat and 16 calories for a 6" round. I buy these at ShopRite in New Jersey.

pizza would be pretty easy: just top each round with a thin slice or two of provolone (to keep it from getting soggy), spread with sauce, add other toppings as desired, top with more cheese if you like, then bake at 400 until the cheese is golden brown.

CocoPops are great for dipping, too. They add the perfect crunch to thick Soups and flavored yogurt, and are great with hummus. I hope you can find them!

I saw a recipe the other day regarding pizza, and they just sprayed a little pam or a little margarine in the bottom of a non stick frying pan and sprinkle low fat mozzerella cheese over the bottom and add toppings.

I would pre-cook some vegetables and then add to top of cheese and have your favorite homemade and or sugar free marinara to dip your pizza in.

I wish I did remember the site, but the recipe was so simple I decided not to save the site.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
