Hi Chris-

I saw the same ad on TV for the low carb/high protein pasta made from soy

flour. It sounded so intrigued that I ordered it yesterday. I will let you

know if it passes the taste/texture test!

Also, what level of carb intake do you think is okay - in terms of grams per

day?

Best -

I can't do pasta yet--my butt was an airhorn all night long after

some Speghettios!!

I bought some noodles in the oriental section -- one was rice

noodles, another was called Bean Threads--look like shredded plastic

wrap. I have yet to try them.

Nick,

When I was on the Atkins diet I was restricted to 15 grams/day, but

that is probably too extreame for us post-ops. I tend to foucs on

protien per unit " eatability " . I suppose up to 60 grams/day of carbs

is fine for us. The main thing to aviod is too much carbs (esp.

sugar) with a lack of protien. That could cause one to go into

a " catabolic " state where the protien is taken from the muscle. It

is actually better to starve then to eat sugar!

Please let us know if this high protien pasta is any good. I am a

real italian food lover, and would welcome this.

Nick:

I saw the ad on tv earlier today for the soy pasta, but I'm not sure

if it's the same one you ordered...here it is:

Pasta Lite by Due Amici

28gr. protein & 10 gr. carbs per serving

4lbs pasta is $19.99, and if you order now they'll also kick in a

pasta pot/strainer and some recipes.
