I am new to the group and just popping in to say "Hi". I am in the process of getting sleeved and am meeting with the psychologist this week. I look forward to this journey. I am looking for others who have had or are having the surgery for support and guidance. Please friend me if you are looking for support on this…

Foods weigh less after being cooked, and that is exactly what you eat, so I would weigh it when it's cooked then do the calorie count.... The reason they put the raw weight is because that is what you pay for by the pound/ounces when you buy it at the store.

Make sure you whip it really good to incorporate the eggs in completely with the other ingredients... The custard is formed and there is a little liquid at the bottom but it doesn't make the custard watery....

It's custard, only since its eggs and milk, it's good for breakfast :)

Your kidding us right? Don't you know when you skip meals and don't eat right (1200 calories minimum), you shut your system down... It goes into starvation mode AND you won't lose weight.. You can't be this naive!!! Eat right and you won't have bowel issues, and your body will thank you for it!

How many servings does this make?

You can lower the calories and fat by using Fage 0% Greek Yogurt instead of the sour cream, and making your own bread crumbs with a low calorie bread. I would use what I usually use Nature's Own - 100% Whole Grain Wheat Bread Sugar Free (50 calories a slice)

This is the way I make it and it comes out great... If you bake it in the oven make sure you put your glass dish in a water bath up to about half way. I would bake it at 350 and it will probably take an hour to an hr 15 minutes... Insert knife in middle to test for doneness if you make it in the oven. It takes about 45-60…

More like a baked custard... Not a pudding

Welcome aboard! Add me and we can take this journey together!

For those of you worried I am not getting enough fat, trust me, I am LOL... I need to watch my fats, hence the request for some good fat free or light dressings... With what I eat with my salads I always have fat, so everything is absorbed as well... Thank you for all the ideas!!

Today I had 1 5 oz. can white tuna with 1 cup lettuce, 1 slice onion, 2 T olives, 1 tsp Cains mayonnaise, 2 tsp FF Hellman's mayonnaise, and 1/3 of a European cucumber.... Calories are low and I feel full... You can add FF cottage cheese if you like for a little added protein... I love it and have it quite often and it's…

Thank you to those that actually answered my question :)

Light is good too :)

Add me... I have over 100 lbs to lose!

Do you think I could make it with Almond milk? I have a milk allergy, and am lactose intolerant so I have to be careful how much milk I drink or ingest in other foods... Seems like I tolerate milk cooked in items better than drinking milk.... I haven't had a drink of milk in probably 40 years, but I do make pudding, have…

Mmmm They all sound so good! Thanks for all your ideas... Now I just have to figure out what ones have 5 or less grams of sugar... I appreciate your imput so much everyone!

I too just started and have to lose 100 pounds, so I will be here right along with you... You CAN DO this and hopefully you WILL :) Please add me as a friend and…

What is protein pudding?

I usually save calories to have something that I like for a snack every day.... Depending on my sugar readings (diabetic) I try to incorporate my favorite snacks into my eating plan. That way I don't feel like I am depriving myself, which has always been a big thing with me losing weight. I do it for awhile, then lose my…

Climbing Tree, Is that the name of it? It sounds like what I would need if I wanted to make a Pad Thai dish and use instead of peanut butter... Trying to cut out the fat and sugar...

How about some laughing cow cheese stuffed in celery stalks, or some whole grain crackers and peanut butter.. If it's sweets your craving, how about Nature Valley Granola Thins... They have them in Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter and Dark Chocolate. They are 80-90 calories, 4-4.5 grams fat, 10 carbs, 6 sugars…

Go to www.recipezazz.com and put vegan in the search window... Lots of vegan recipes and thousands of other recipes you can adapt to vegan.

Splenda is teaspoon for teaspoon the same as sugar ,so you would use the same amount of sugar... Just taste it as you go.. You can always add, but you can't take it out if you put too much to begin with

These noodles are an answer to a pasta lovers dream. Make sure you rinse them well, then dry them with a paper towel really well. I use a hot cast iron frying pan and get it hot , then throw them in... They bounce around the pan and dry out a little so they aren't slimy, then I take them out, and proceed with how I am…

Feel free to add me.... Anyone can add me... I sent a few requests from here...
