I have a visceral negative reaction to cottage cheese because of the tanginess. Does anyone know of a specific type that is not so tangy? Have tried Breakstones even with the fruit and I can't get it down.

First - love your avatar!

I haven't really detected tanginess.

Have you tried it with spices or perhaps blended up with something else? When I was on purée I blended it with some chicken. It wasn't spectacular, but it was edible. :-)

I also blended it with refried Beans and salsa (it was ok).

I prefer Penn Maid. However it may be a local brand as I am in Pennsylvania. It is the only brand that I like the low fat. (I don't do no fat)

Then why eat it? Find something you like instead.

I would find something else to eat. Cottage cheese is spoiled milk in my book and I can't stand it. I don't eat that or tuna which is cat food.

Can you eat Dannon Light & Fit Greek yogurt instead? I really like the cherry flavored one.

I am not a cottage cheese fan either.

There's plenty of other protein-rich fish in the sea.

Metaphorically speaking. ;)

Cottage cheese has excellent Protein and I eat it every day. My favorite brand is Kemps. I am not sure if that is local but I don't detect any tanginess.

I agree. Either you like it or you don't. If you don't, no one is requiring you to eat it. That said, the higher fat version does taste a bit different than the lower fat version.

I have negative emotional attachments to cottage cheese from an abusive mother putting me on extreme diets at 4yrs old. I've tried to break that, but just not successful. You don't have to have cottage cheese to be successful at any stage in the process of WLS so if the taste is that bad for you, just eat something else. I hear sometimes taste buds change post surgery and things that bothered us before, we actually might like post surgery, so I think I'd just table it altogether til after surgery if I were you. Well, I'm not you, but that's what I've decided on.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
