As I wait around, counting the days until surgery, I have become a master researcher of blogs. Blogs of those who had the Gastric Band, those who have the vertical sleeve, Gastric Bypass, waiting for approval, etc. I have found out some interesting things. I have been scouring the sites for recipes....stage 2, stage 3, etc. (The liquid and pureed stages do not seem fun.) I found out about the DaVinci and Torini Sugar Free syrups to perk up protein drinks and Greek yogurt. And who knew there was "Peanut or Almond Flour or PB2? " Apparently these are like nut dust that you can add to things for flavor and added protein. Hmmmm. A whole new world of things for me to explore.
Do you have any favorite product to make "banded life" a little easier or more palatable?
Is there a hazelnut powder to add to a chocolate protein drink?
