Well, I don't know of any Giant grocery store here in So. Cal., but what is the nutritional information? What size is a serving, how many calories per serving, how much fat, how much carbs, how much Protein?

My wife gets a sugar free lemon loaf from our local market, and she thinks it is great. But when we look at the nutritional information, it might be sugar free but it is still loaded with calories, fat, and carbs. She hates it when I say it, but sugar free doesn't mean low calorie and healthy.

Yeah, I know I am a killjoy. Sorry.

BTW, for thanksgiving dessert I am making a crustless pumpkin ricotta bake (http://theworldaccor...cotta-bake.html). Serving Size: 1/2 cup, 137 calories, 5g carbs (1g sugar, 1g fiber), 9g fat, 9g Protein.< /p>

@@toasty I don't think you're a killjoy at all! Here's my own pumpkin pie recipe and it is oh so tasty, especially for only 77 calories and 9g of protein!!! ^_^

Crustless Protein Pumpkin Pie

1 - 15 oz can pumpkin (not pie filling)
½ cup egg whites
1½ cups Premier Protein vanilla shake
¾ cup Splenda
½ tsp salt
2 Tbs pumpkin pie spice

Preheat oven 400°. Beat all ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Pour in pie pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes, then turn down to 375° and bake for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. You can also pour into 16 (sprayed with non-stick cooking spray) cupcake tins. I like using silicone inserts.

It is best served cold and can even be frozen. Serving size is 3 minis or 1/6 slice of pie. Sometimes I'll top a slice with Greek yogurt (pic) but Nutrition info is for pie only.

@@shelleylester I am so sorry. I reread my post, and I think I was out of line. Absolutely having a piece of pie every once in a while is great, especially when you have been so successful in your weight loss. And finding one that is sugar free is awesome. Please accept my apologies for sounding so self righteous in my post.

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

      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! 😞
