this is for a basic low-carb flax flatbread. i always make a half batch and store it in the fridge bc it can go rancid otherwise. its easy and if u use a little extra splenda is delicious toasted n buttered

its 6 or 7g fiber per slice ~

Hello there fellow Bandida.... I tried to PM you but it wouldnt go thru. I live in the Bay too and was curious where you were able to get your fills done in San Jose. Would you mind sharing info?

You can send me a PM if you'd like..

~thanks!

hey babe sorry youre having such a rough week. good thinking to postpone fill for now. keep me posted... and i hope you get to have a fun, relaxing, stress-free holiday weekend

~D

hey babe youre coming up on the 4th soon! woohoo! im soooo off track bc of all the feasting last week and this week (work luncheon tomorrow, gonna be another blockbuster) but i am getting back on track starting saturday morning, i promise!

whens our next mini-goal? i was thinking jan 15th maybe?

hey babe! i was thinking of u this morning. im still hovering at 185.. bah humbug. but i been hella lazy, zero zilch nada exercise. but still watching what i eat. balls!

we only have 13 more days!

hi ashley, im sorry to hear of your loss. and a breakup! wow you poor dear. i cant imagine how rough that is... hang in there.

i think im going to TJ next saturday for a fill, if you want to get together while im there let me know.

Hi Debbie yep I remember. The fill was a pain in the ass, I felt ok at first then got stuck on some bread (ok my fault) but that caused some inflamation, leaving me w/ a pill-stuck-in-throat feeling. did liquids for a few days, ok now. I do seem to be able to eat less, Im hoping the restriction stays and I dont have to go back!

Bummer ur loss is slowing but #2 is sposta get it going ag...

Hi Kat. Hang in there... Ive heard you dont really feel it until after at least your second fill, if not til after your third.

In the meanwhile, keep fighting the good fight and making good choices.

I keep a lo-carb diet and im losing quite a bit, maybe thats something to consider?

Anyway best of luck and keep your chin up

Hi Michelle. About breakfast, sausage wont really work unless I chew forever. I do eggs and flax bread. Its gluten free so it doesnt get stuck. Sometimes I just have flaxbread with cream cheese, peanut butter, or something else protein-y slathered on it. I always have tea 1st thing in the AM, otherwise I get the golfball-in-throat-feeling, no matter what I eat. Yuck.

Let me know if u need ...

Hi there! Heres a link to my tuna quiche recipe, let me know if it doesnt work and I'll PM it to you.

You can use egg beaters instead if ur watching calories or cholesterol.. Also, I take the easy way out for the bacon and buy Oscar Mayer Bacon Bits, and just use 1T for each slice of bacon.

Happy cooking
