Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

Thanks for the recipe. What size pan did you use? And approximately how long did you bake it?

Rectangular cake pan - looks like 6x12, maybe 15 mins at 400 (I was in a rush) so 20 at 375? or until the toothpick is clean.

Those look beautiful!! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Protein brownies (for Breakfast subscriptions)

1 banana, 1 egg, 3tbsp chia seeds, 1tsp oil of your choice, 100g Protein Powder of your choice, 4 tbsp cacao powder, 2 tsp baking powder, dash of sugar sub of your choice, pinch of salt, *optional : nuts,1 tsp powdered psyllium husk (fiber)

the key to making this behave like there is flour in it is blending the egg banana Water mixture first, then add baking powder to the blender, lastly hand folding the rest of the ingredients in.

10 equal bars = 10 grams of protein (cals may vary depending on individual ingredients used)

(Please no lawsuits for uneven protein distribution ?)

@GreenTealael I set up to make these this morning but ... how much water in that first stage? Missing from ingredient list and I suspect the amount is critical to the recipe!

Oh no, sorry I just saw this! Water will vary depending upon batter consistency. Usually just enough to get it "loose" enough, ( adding tsp by tsp as needed) I don't know how else to describe it. The thinker the batter the fudgier , the thinner the more cake like...

Sorry for the late response

More B/A! LOL.

My low carb version of McGriddler Breakfast Sandwich. I threw some cheese on just cuz I could...but honestly it didn't need it.

Recipe stats for a full sandwich plus 1oz grape tomatoes -- so it was less, cuz I didn't finish:

Breakfast: 264 cals; 25g protein; 13g fat; 9g carbs; 1g fiber; 2g nat occ. sugar; 8g net carbs

Here's the recipe I used yesterday out of MFP. I made it up cuz we now think Mr. F. has a coconut allergy that makes his mouth swell. (BTW, the protein powder is the unflavored one).

But, honestly? The recipe for Mile High Silver Dollar Pancakes (and the Bake Mix I created) are the best ever and worth the time of making them up and keeping the biscuit mix made up. But they might need to be adjusted to make them more bariatric friendly. Here's the link to them. http://fluffychixcook.com/mile-high-silver-dollar-pancakes-low-carb-gluten-free-options/

Here's the link to the FCC Low Carb High Fiber Bake Mix: http://fluffychixcook.com/mile-high-keto-biscuit-mix-low-carb/

LOL, aren't you glad you asked? Ha. This is my old blog that I used to keep before my lymphedema got so bad. It was a low carb keto blog, but many recipes would have to be modified to make them lower fat and bariatric friendly...but truly some of the best "bready" stuff on the net IMHO that was rich in fiber (prebiotic fibers and soluble fibers).
