Ok, here goes with the results. I used lemon cake mix with sprite. It doesn't rise as much as it would with the eggs and oil. The texture is more dense. It isn't quite brownie texture, but it isn't regular cake texture either. The taste is good. I would say it is sweeter than regular cake mix alone. I don't usually frost my cakes, so that works out. My almost teenage son likes it. My very picky husband likes it too. I would make it again.

Thanks for letting me know. I will have to try it. The Protein muffins I was talking about turned out dense too. It was VERY filling though.

I had never heard of such a thing! I am going out to buy a cake and some diet soda. What a great idea!

I'm envious...my band cannot tolerate any kind of soft starchy products...i.e. bread, muffins, cake, tortillas, etc. :)

I had a fill a few days ago, so I'm back on soft foods.

B - Fiber One lime yogurt

L - 1/2 cup blended bean Soup

D - 1/2 cup cottage cheese with 1/4 cup applesauce

S - 42 g. Protein shot

Question: you use a box cake mix and diet soda only (and the carob chocolate chips)? No eggs or oil? How much diet soda?

This is all that I used, nothing else that the box asked for and my cakes came out moist, full size and delicious.

I used a full can of soda too. I also heard that you can do this to box brownies too. (haven't tried that one yet)

Georgia girl: I hope you're feeling better.

Slim: I too have been on and off my game. I start out good and then....But it's not that bad and we are way ahead of the game because we know how to get back on track.

Please keep us posted on how your cakes, cupcakes or muffins turn out!

I didn't like how my lemon cake turned out yesterday (although DS and DH ate it up). I decided to try it again. This time I used a devil's food cake mix and diet cola. I didn't use my mixer this time. I hand mixed it with a spatula. It turned out really nice. DS and DH ate it warm with sf whipped topping. Not bad for them to not know that it was at least somewhat healthier for them without all of the eggs and oil. Thanks for posting about your cake and reminding me that I wanted to try that!

      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... :(
