Pancakes
What does your meal plan from your doc or dietician say? Once you are on a regular diet, you can have them if you want to and if you tolerate them OK. I have had one pancake on a couple occasions with sugar free syrup. More than one would be too much for my pouch. Things like that feel very heavy to me.

I wanted a pancake too, at about 6 months out so I made one and I was really sorry I ate it. It was so filling and it made me feel like crap for about an hour or 2. I would avoid them, or just take 2 bites to relieve the crazing. Go to IHOP with the family and have one of them get some and just take one bite. Trust me any more and you might regret it.

Even at over 4 years post-op, a single small pancake completely fills me up, and since even if they are made with some protein powder, they are mostly carbs, they ally aren't a very good food choice. Perhaps if you just had one or two small bites...

I have a south beach mock french toast/pancake reciepe somewhere... it's made with ricotta cheese, and other stuff, and it does taste like french toast or pancake. Yum!
I'll see if I can find it.

If you find that recipe will you message it to me please? That sounds like something I would like. I admit that I made some french toast with that Protein bread, can't think of the name of it, but I won a case of it on Melting Mama's site and used 2 slices and froze the rest and can't remember to take it out of the freezer to have again.
