Hi Lucy! Glad it was a hit! I love this recipe but I recently stopped eating meat, so I need to make a vegetarian version. Thanks for the positive comments!

Hey luluc! Sorry it took so long to reply. I haven't checked this thread in sooo long. My veggie kick didn't last that long, lol. Well, it lasted a little over a month.

Even though I am eating some meat now, I don't eat near as much as I used to. I think all the years of low carbing and eating so much meat just turned me off from it for a while.

Well, did you and DH do the meat fast?

I had to search for this thread, anyone come up with more recipes?

I don't do low carb, but husband started Atkins a couple weeks ago (and he looooves pasta), and I'm tired of the traditional low-carb dinners I've been having to make (esp. since I'm not doing low carb). I bought a spaghetti squash for the first time, dun dun dun.

And for people not able to find it, I thought I wasn't finding it either, but it ends up they didn't have it where all the other squash and veggies were (in the refrigerator stuff).. it was out near the fruits at Publix here, so I found it after I gave up.

Anyway, going to make it tonight, going to try the spaghetti fake out-- but if we end up liking it, would like more recipes!! :))

Oh one more thing (I know this is a bit late in the game), they have EVOO cooking spray now, which is 0 calorie. It's like the PAM butter sprays and stuff, but it's EVOO.

I love spaghetti squash. I discovered it while doing a low carb diet. Get an alfredo sauce recipe...usually heavy cream, parmesan cheese, butter, some nutmeg, garlic powder and pepper. Add some ham and peas and pour over SS. It's very yummy and low carb. Take the peas out if you want less carbs.

      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... :(
