Why can't I have SUGAR? (I am 7wks post op RNY)

Why not revise a recipe to fit your needs? You can have the best of both worlds. Just make it sugar free and add protein. That is what I plan to do when I get a sweet tooth. There is no reason why you can't have anything you want, if you revise it. Good luck to you!!  :))

Heatkli,
What a wonderful alternative you have offered me...
I really appreciate your advice and best wishes to you as well.

Anytime!! I found myself thinking "what have I done? I'll never eat again!" But after looking at some of the recipes on this site, I realized I can still have it, I just have to make it for me. I can't wait to try a revised version of the Romanburger lololol

Have you been on "EggFace's" site...
She has wonderful recipes for WLS patients... they are delicious and very inventive...

Again, thank you for understanding about how I might be feeling...
The "I'll never eat again!" comment has definitely come out of my mouth on more than one occassion during these past seven weeks...

Thanks again,
Lisa

Yes, I love her website, looks soooo good!!! Great ideas! Cleopatra_Nik also!!! She has "fried zucchini" for Heaven's sake!!!! YUM  No problem! We aren't always going to do what we should I'm sure, but with good recipes, it might be easier than we think. Cotton candy though, not sure if you can make it sugar free hehehehe

PLEASE, post here or send me the recipes you invent. Faux dessert with protein? Died and gone to heaven. Can't wait to hear about your successful experiments. Although I'll have to try not to overdo on good-for-me desserts too.

I'm not allowed to eat yet, I'm still pretty early out. However, check out theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com and also Cleopatra_Nik's recipes. They look awesome and people seem to think they are. I've been watching the cooking channel for ideas. As far as dessert goes, I just figure I'd replace the sugar with Truvia or Splenda. It may not work for all recipes but I'm sure there is a work around. Also, I found this website for post surgery recipes:

Eggface makes several desserts that are filled with protein! Ice cream, mini cakes, muffins....I highly recommend reading her blogs! 

your cute..but I have yet to find a weight loss friendly recipe for cotton candy

hehehehehehe well... me either.. almost anything, I stand corrected!
