Hey guys, for all you looking to eat pizza, I found one. The company name is EAT RITE. They make mini chicago style deep dish pizzas. They are around 200-300 calories, 3-5 carbs, and 20-35 grams of Protein depending on the flavor. I am 9 months out and still can not tolerate breads, pizza etc but I can tolerate these. Half of one pizza is enough for me, so I get two meals out of one pizza. The have tried the Breakfast pizza and just bought the Tres, Quattro and Cinco to try.

Half of one pizza is enough for me, so I get two meals out of one pizza. The have tried the breakfast pizza and just bought the Tres, Quattro and Cinco to try.

OK guys, I was so excited about this that I immediately Googled it to find out where to go with my wheel barrow and load up. Unfortunately, there are some concerns.

In the Google results I noticed this - http://www.myfoxny.com/story/18071984/false-nut - from Fox News. The article is dated May 2, 2012 and states in part:

  • "We took the pizza and some other Eat-Rite products to a certified laboratory and had them tested. The tests found the Chicago Deep Dish Pizza Uno, which the label claims is 210 Calories really has 583 calories. The claim of 6 grams of fat is also bogus. Tests found 29 grams of fat. Instead of 7 grams of carbohydrates, there are 53 grams. We also tested Eat-Rite's Pizza Duo and got almost identical results, 577 calories, 28 grams of fat, and 53 grams of carbohydrates."

The article mentions Lisa Lillian, author of the "Hungry Girl" series of cookbooks. I have a number of her bestselling books and they are nothing short of outstanding. The Fox article states that "She [Lillian] heard from a lot of people that they were suspicious of this pizza." So I did a little more checking and found this - http://www.hungry-girl.com/newsletters/raw/965. Lillian states in part:

  • Eat Rite = Eat WRONG?!

    Just a friendly neighborhood HG warning -- if you happen to stumble upon pizzas or other frozen foods made by a brand called Eat Rite, be afraid. Be VERY afraid. We've heard LOTS of buzz from subscribers who are extremely skeptical of the accuracy of their nutrition labels.

She goes on to say:

  • "Consider yourself warned. We were lured in by the personal pizzas years ago but ditched them when we finally admitted to ourselves that the buttery-tasting crust and puddles of oil that formed on top of 'em meant they probably had more than the 210 - 245 calories and 3 - 5g fat printed on the labels."

No one is sorrier than I am guys. Please don't shoot the messenger!

Ok I know the eat rite pizza are bad for you. But I got an email today from a company called VITALICOUS. They make muffins and muffin tops that are 90 calories, sugar free, have about 4-5 grs of Protein, 3-5 carbs and are full of Vitamins. The muffins are delicious. Well now they are making pizzas. Haven't checked them out nutrition wise but they looked and sounded good.

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
