So as WLS patients this time of year can be so so so hard on the ones that LOVE everything pumpkin. But it doesn't have to be! This morning I dug out a can of pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling) and added three tablespoons to my protein shake. I also added pumpkin pie seasoning and two stevias. All with two scoops of baritatric advantage vanilla and a cup of almondmilk with 5 ice cubes. Heaven!! I will use the can for making my own Greek yogurt pumpkin as well, same premise! Happy Pumpkin Season everyone!!

How do you make your own yogurt?

what a great idea! I regret now that I just finished a pre-made premier protein shake! Should keep those for busy workday mornings.

I use plain Greek yogurt, add the pumpkin, spices, and stevia. The nice part about doing this is it doesn't add very many carbs. There is 3 grams to three scoops.

It sounds so good!! My band to sleeve revision surgery is Thursday. I can have yogurt thinned with fat free milk once I get home, so I will definitely have to try this [emoji5]

This looks like my house! I didn't know they had espresso powder. How is that? I bought the pumpkin spice syrup but haven't tried it yet. I will this week because it's going to be chilly.

It's great in the chocolate protein. I think it tastes like a mocha shake. I got a Chai tea syrup from daVinci and it tastes like a root beer float. I love it. I ordered more today along with a Eggnog one. It's on a site called websturantstore.com. Shipping is pricey but its worth it.

Thanks! Looking into it for sure

I love pumpkin too. So I will try some of these ideas after my surgery 9/11.

What a great idea, so many yummy things!
