Welcome to Bandfriendlyrecipes.com! Here is a collection of my favorite band-friendly meals. Not only are they great for those who have a gastric band, but they are also family-friendly and sometimes even kid-friendly. Most of all, they are healthy, low calorie, low carb recipes that anyone can enjoy.
Got a fabulous Band Friendly recipe you would like to share or any ideas that you think will make this site better? Send it here : megan@bandfriendlyrecipes.com

Megan, it's a great site and the photography is really good too. I posted a link to my surgical team's yahoo group (I'm a patient). It is a great resource! I know how much work this can be, keep it up!
Hi Meagan! This is a great site! I was recently banded on August 31,2009. I am still adjusting and trying new foods, so that I won't get tired and bored with eating the same things. Do you know if there are some other websites also that give out band friendly recipes?
Low Carb Gourmet- http://www.thelow-carbgourmet.com/... It isn't 100% band friendly, but they have some great recipes.
The world according to Eggface- http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/ Again, It isn't 100% band friendly. But she did have a gastric bypass. She has a lot of recipes using protein powder.
Jean M- http://jeanslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/- She has some great band friendly recipes on her site.
How do many of you measure your food. I am seeking the easiest way. With a scale or measuring cup. And do you measure and then store for easy reddiness.
In the beginning I did both. I would weigh my meat and measured anything thing else. I would also divided food up into containers. Now that I that I have more experience, I don't measure...I just eyeball it. Every once in a while I will measure my food, just to check that I am not over or under eating. I still divide up my left overs in glad ware containers that holds about a cup.

This site is great. I've had my band just over a year and just found out about it! Oh well, better late than never! Thanks for all the great ideas!
