Mayo, ketchup sweetener, butter does honey bother you? Etc. I'm starting second phase diet in Wednesday.

Gotta watch your sugars - some really hit people with rny

I use mustard and mayo. I put salsa on a lot of things to moisten and add flavor. Salsa is great on fish, hamburgers, in wraps w/cheese and sandwich meat, added to hummus, on eggs... I like it on almost anything. :-)

What kind of butter is used most?

I've stopped using anything but real butter....I don't use it much, but when I do, I go for the good stuff!!!

Yep I'm with soccermomma73. I only eat real butter but little amounts. Im the same way with other condiments too. I don't like all the processing that goes into making something taste like something else.

Organic sugar free bar b que sauce

Low Fat Mayo

Mustard

No added sugar ketchup

Chipolte tobasco sauce

Truvia sweetner

organic butter

Low fat sour cream

organic salsa

I havn't introduced honey yet. I really want to keep my glucose index and load down. So i'm careful with sweetners. Make sure to read labels for your total in sugars and watch for hidden sugars as in HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) that's a baddy. MSG is another baddy.

Keep up the great work your doing. I'm just a few weeks ahead of you. It definately is a learning experience.

Knowlege is power.

Does hot sauce bother any RNY folks?

I like spicy things. Especially in the early days when most things don't taste right. In the first weeks I ate spicy refried beans and spicy red pepper hummus. Even now I eat a lot of spicy chili and buffalo meatballs w/blue cheese. I chop jalapeños and add it to eggs, quinoa, and melted cheese (w/my bean crackers). I eat spicy things several times per week. :-)

I can't eat real butter. All I taste is grease and it tastes disgusting to me. I use Smart Balance spread usually, or plain margarine in small amounts.

I like the "I can't believe it's not butter" light with olive oil.

I use the same ones I used pre-op, the only difference now is I use a lot less at a time.

Same here. I do use light or fat free salad dressings and light mayo, though.

And in the door walks the extremist...lol..NO mayo, I use homemade Hummus in its place, I put chickpeas/garbanzo Beans in the food processer with minced garlic, lemon juice, Water and cumin..delish. Terry, Salsa is the bomb, love it, make it myself & slather it on whatever I can..lol. No condiments of any kind for me. I've replaced them all. Their all process sugar, to hard on my pouch. Sorry, Im no help here..lol..my past fat self doused all my food in condiments of every kind..rather disgraceful now that I think about it. Now my food tastes real and alive. I wonder if Im 'Paleo' and don't even know it? hmmm??

I make many of my own condiments so I can control the sugar and ingredients, they are as follows:

-bbq sauce

-ketchup

-hot sauce

-flavored mayo (sriracha, onion),

-all kinds of mustard

-salads I love best dressed in olive oil and balsamic, or homemade blue cheese

-hummus

-guacamole

If you can't tolerate butter than perhaps try Canola Harvest.
