Yuck! Fat free ranch dressing



Recommended Posts

Just tried ff Hidden Valley ranch dressing while vacationing in Kauai and it was disgusting! I like their light dressing but their FF didn't even really taste like ranch and had some sort of chemical aftertaste. Where is Bolthouse farms dressing when I need it? A good alternative was tzatziki sauce...soo flavorful on a steak salad! Thank you Costco! It's been fun trying to eat on the cheap and healthfully while in paradise and my husband and I have been successful for the most part!

I never really liked their ff ranch either. I will definitely have to try the tzaiki sauce. That sounds really good.

Good idea! The powder stuff I like....it would make a good dip and is heaven coated on grilled or broiled chicken. Yum!

I don't eat any ff dressings. Was told by many different nutritionists that I have worked with that having some fats in the dressing actually help you to absorb nutrients in the veggies in the salad.< /p>

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
