    JackieOMonroe got a reaction from Sunnyway in Plain Greek Yogurt ~ what can I do with it??   
    My favorite way to eat is is with Splenda or preserves, but here are some other things that I found for you.
    Peanut Butter Fluff. Take a cup of Greek Yogurt and add two tablespoons of Peanut Butter to it for an extraordinary treat. You'll think you're eating soft-serve peanut butter ice cream and your kids may be envious. If you're trying to cut down calories, carbs, or fat, try adding the new PB2 powder instead of peanut butter, and sweeten it with splenda or a sugar free Syrup for all the taste and none of the guilt.
    Fruit Chiffon. Greek Yogurt makes an exceptional accompaniment to all kinds of fruit. Traditionalists may grill fruit slices and serve them with greek yogurt for desert after a light summer supper. But if you're in a hurry, try flavoring your yogurt with a sugar free lemon or strawberry syrup. You'll find it makes a refreshing way to eat Greek yogurt while watching your weight at the same time.
    Tzatziki. If you love Greek cuisine, or have ever enjoyed a gyro sandwich with a delicious cucumber yogurt sauce, then you've probably had tzatziki and didn't even know it. Tzatziki is a staple of Greek cuisine that is used as a topping for meat dishes or salads. You can make this savory sauce at homeusing Greek Yogurt and your own spices. Add some cucumbers, and you may never go back to sour cream. (Incidentally, Greek Yogurt can also be used plain as a sour cream substitute with all the texture, but dramatically fewer calories.)
    With Honey and Nuts. In Greece, a classic way to eat Greek yogurt is to pair it with honey and nuts. The texture of the yogurt swirls beautifully with honey, and the nutty crunch adds some wholesome pizzazz.(If you're trying to cut down on sugar, you can use a sugar free maple syrup and stir in some nuts for an authentic but diet-conscious treat.)
    smoothies. When milk is scarce or out of the question and you're looking for a smoothie with more tang, add some Greek yogurt. You'll be surprised at the richness it imparts to your frosty beverage.

    JackieOMonroe got a reaction from klear007 in Weight Gained Since Having Gastric Sleeve Surgery   
    I think the poll would have the most value if you knew how long people had been sleeved and what amount of weight has been gained in each of those time frames. Also, maybe incorporate age and gender and eliminate those who have been sleeved less than a certain length of time (6 months or maybe a year).
    Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think of other ways to modify the poll, so never mind. LOL
