Chicken Salad without Mayo



Recommended Posts

There is something called Nayonaise that you can get in a lot of stores that is a soy product and low calories. It's not bad.

Are you trying to stay away from mayo because of the calories? I was going to also, but my surgeon told me not to; the idea of the band is to eat smaller portions and the fat keeps you satisfied.

you could also mix the nayonaise with real mayo

If you like something a little spicier, I use buffalo wing sauce. I especially like Franks Hot Sauce Buffalo wing sacue. I think like 10 calories and very low fat. I also add in some ff ranch. Very good stuff.

I use fat free ranch or lite vidalia onion sometimes. It's pretty good, but not as good as mayo in my opinion. I've also done low-fat plain yogurt with a chutney of some kind like mango. That's yummy!

As previously suggested by Georgia Girl, I make my tuna and chicken salad with Tostitos Spinach Dip. 2 Tbsp has 50 calories, 4 g of fat, 1 g of fibre and 1 g of Protein. I don't have any regular mayo in my house, but this dip has 1/2 the calories of light mayo.

It is delicious and adds a bit of snap and crunch (it has tiny pieces of red pepper, Water chesnut and spinach) to the salads. The southwestern dip by tostitos is also delicious.

Mix it with plain yogurt, S&P, and relish.. in place of the mayo..

Mix with mustard, S&P, and relish..and leave out the mayo..

Ranch dressing would probably be good too.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
