I came up with a couple ideas that I do. Pretty simple and depending on what I have on hand and what I am in the mood for I will do one of the two...

Go to your favorite deli, I usually so Wal Mart but whatever works. You will need...

A few slices of honey baked ham

Pepperoni

Provolone, mozzarella, and parm cheeses

Jar of sauce.

*** other option includes the Brownberry sandwich thins or the Italian Herb pockets*** I watch carbs pretty close so I only use these occasionally.

The ham slices become the crust in the low carb version. If I have been great on my carbs for the day I may use the sandwich thins, but to be honest I very rarely eat any sort of bread anymore. Tastes have changed. Now if you are watching fat intake, you can get low fat versions or turkey pepperoni or whatever you like.

Do the sandwich thins open face.

Check out the Flat Out bread website. I just found out about this product and the flat breads are high in Protein, low in calories, and they have whole grain products.

They have some cool pizza recipes:

Wow thanks everyone for the ideas. I showed my husband a picture of the cauliflower pizza. I think we will try that tomorrow and start looking for the flat out. Thank you also for the Ham crust idea. It will be fun experimenting!

Another supporter for the cauliflower pizza! Ive made it several times and it's awesome!

Another suggestion is to use portabello mushroom caps and make 'pizza' with them. Scoop out the ribbing, layer in some sauce ( you can add some ground turkey for extra Protein and make a meat sauce) top with low fat mozzarella cheese, and maybe some turkey pepperoni if you want even more Protein. Bake and voila! I saw a recipie like this on YouTube and I've been meaning to try it!

I would take a piece of ham, slice some onion. Then, down the middle of the ham, place onion, mozza, and some bottled pizza sauce. Roll up and sear in a non-stick frying pan (or microwave tell the cheese is melted. Tasted like pizza without all the fat. Good quick snack if you are craving the flavor.

I've made the cauliflower pizza. It was good enough for my 15 year old twins and super picky hubby. I love it too.

I take a mission low carb wheat tortilla and put some artichoke spread on it and build it with whatever you want. My favorite and sundried tomatoes, turkey meatballs, and provolone.

Eggface has numerous variations of this type of pizza.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
