I have mixed them all with Water, I liked them that way. The only exceptions being unflavored, I only use this to mix into creamy or milk based items such as yogurt, cottage cheese, or creamy Soups. Also strawberry is a bit too sweet for me. I ended up having to cut it 50/50 with unflavored.

I don't know if there is a brand that only does frozen greek yogurt, but the other day I saw that there were single serving cups of Oikos greek yogurt in a tray inside the freezer door with the ice cream at the grocery store. I know my kids love it when I freeze their Gogurts, so I assume this would basically be the same? I think I'm going to try it.

What did you eat for breakfast on pureed
Sleeved in Seattle replied to kim2002's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm eating a 1/2 cup of Fage 0% yogurt with 2 scoops of Syntrax unflavored Protein powder, a tsp. or two of unsweetened soy milk and a bit of Equal to give it all a bit of sweetness. (Not looking forward to getting my sweet tooth back!) -
What are some ideal soft foods
dsmith_rn replied to Keyshunda's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
In addition to what has already been mentioned, I ate egg salad, canned corned beef hash, applesauce, cottage cheese with applesauce, apple butter, or crushed pineapple in it, pureed canned pears (in fruit juice or water), mashed avocado. My favorite dinner during that phase was when I made 4-cheese manicotti for my family. I can't have Pasta for 6 months, so I took a little of the fresh, homemade tomato sauce and put it in a ramekin, topped it with my 4-cheese mixture (ricotta, mozzarella, parmesano-reggiano, asiago, and fresh italian parsley), then a little more sauce and mozzarella/asiago on top and baked it in the oven. YUMMY. When I made tacos for the family, I had homemade refried Beans with salsa, cheese, and a little dollop of greek yogurt and avocado on top. I made potato leek soup and rounded out the meal for the family with grilled cheese sandwiches. Black bean soup with cilantro, cheese, greek yogurt on top, and make quesadillas for the family to go with it. You have to be a little creative during this phase, but it can be done! Hope that helps! -
Need to lost 35lbs before they'll schedule surgery...
ACV replied to Taunter's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
@[member="Deb Hass I am 48 and a very finicky eater. Texture is my biggest problem with gagging on food. I have a very small variety of foods that I eat now and worry about that after surgery. My go to is always "chicken ". But that won't help me for presurgery diet and weeks after. I'll do what I have to, but it is concerning. I don't like any fruit or vegetables, yogurt, cream soups. ... my husband stated last night that he's concerned about me finding things to eat. On the other hand if I get hungry enough I will eat. Good luck! and keep in touch and maybe we can give each other ideas. -
GNC Gold Standard Whey
GreenEyedMamma replied to wondering1's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I drank it with non-fat milk when I was on my pre-op liquid diet and for the first week post-op. When I graduated to mushies, I mixed it into my oatmeal, greek yogurt, and sugar-free pudding. After my first month post-op I stopped using it because I was getting enough protein from food. -
4 months out and sleeve seems tighter
Frza replied to newgrandmother's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yogurt & cottage cheese are good examples of 'soft' protein. A piece of chicken is a good example of 'dense' protein. -
I tried Spaghetti Squash
Melissannde replied to TracyNYC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds pretty good. Suggest substituting PLAIN (not flavored) low or no fat greek yogurt for the FF sour cream. Tastes almost the same and more protein. -
I like Fage & Chobani plain. I add about 1/2 cup to protein shakes with skim milk. I like the Chobani flavors...they have really good ones, like Pear & Blood Orange. I also like Liberte flavors. I don't usually cook with it, but I have added the plain to soups. Also, if you drain plain yogurt overnight it gets much thicker & creamy, almost like soft cream cheese. You can add flavorings, either sweet or savory, and it's great that way, too.

I'm 8 1/2 months out. My craving are much worse since I slacked the reins at Christmas time. I am not more tired. Is your Iron good? Or do you eat a carby meal? That used to make me tired, but I can't stomach much bread, rice, potatoes, or Pasta, so I don't eat many carb heavy meals. The most carby thing I eat on plan is Beans. I sometimes have a cup of beans for dinner and I notice I am hungrier after eating them, but not more tired. I can now eat a cup of greek yogurt and one slice of toast for breakfast. That's about what I hoped for in restriction. I don't want to be stuck eating 6 meals a day to get my Protein in. For dinner, I can eat 3 oz. of dense protein, a little bit of veggies, and a bite or two of a starch. For lunch, I often have 2 oz. of lunch meat, an ounce of cheese, a handful of whole grain crackers and a little fruit, such as a little cutie or 1/4 of an apple. Lynda

I have been having lots of trouble with the protein shakes and have not gotten near the amount of protein in that I should have. Today I tried putting unflavored whey powder into my yogurt and it tastes fine. Just thought I would pass this on in case anyone else can benefit. Don't know why I didn't think of it before.

There are a lot of people who really rely on jerky for Snacks. It's pretty salty, but other than that, it's a great snack. I snack on almonds, string cheese, and greek yogurt., I also love Oh Yeah peanut butter/choc Protein bars. They are like a kit kat. I only eat one stick at a time. People like to snack on hard boiled eggs, but I hate eggs.

Day 11 Postop...somewhat discouraged
jbaker5d posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi, I need some encouragement here. Unlike alot of you, my dr didn't put me on a liquid diet preop. He required Southbeach Phase 1, which is basically Protein and veggies only, no carbs whatsoever. I did ok on it except for a couple of slip ups. Nothing major. However, at the time of my surgery I had only lost 1 pound. My dr was visably put out with me and let me know it. I feel like I would have been better off on the liquid diet. Putting that behind me, I have been sticking to the rules for the postop period, adding only what is recommended when it is recommmended. I am still on full liquid, cream Soups (which I tend to enjoy more than anything else), pudding, yogurt, oatmeal, cream of wheat, and thinned mashed potatoes. The food restrictions have not been that bad, however, I've only lost 7 pounds since surgery. I know, 7 pounds is 7 pounds, but seriously, I would have thought that with such restrictions I would have at least lost 10 by now. I am trying not to be discouraged by this, but I am. I don't feel I have very much restriction at all anymore. What I had at first must have been from swelling. I know there is some, but not enough. I can easily drink down a cup and a half of cream Soup. Maybe more. I did push it last night with closer to two cups of cream of mushroom soup and I was so miserable for about an hour. Anyway, the lack of weightloss is disappointing. am I expecting too much? I see all of you guys with such great weightloss PREOP, then more POSTOP.....I guess it's just discouraging that I didn't do better preop. I don't know. Just needing some encouragement. I know "hang in there" "it will get better" "7 pounds is good" I've heard it all, but I can't help how I feel. Sorry to be so glum. Thanks for understand, Jennifer -
Day 3 of the Pre-op diet but.......the weekend is here!!!
StillNoRegrets83 replied to shadena32's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a few questions for you guys: Are you on a 2 week liquid diet or are you able to eat food also? And if you are on liquid only what are you guys having? I start my 2 week diet tomorrow but allowed to have jello, yogurt, sugar free juices, and shakes. So any suggestions on the shakes? Also CONGRATS!!! I am super excited for you guys and I will pray that all of your hunger pains will be worth it. Good luck!!! -
Feeling great, but...
ThinSIstaSoon replied to rhya2k's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had yogurt during my pre op liquid phase and then 2 wks after surgery which was Dr recommended. By week 3 I was on solids. Just chewing a lot more than I used to and really enjoying my food now! I did gain 2 lbs once going back to solids but have since lost those. 19 lbs down since pre op diet/surgery which was Feb 1st. First fill is March 7th. I had my first episode with feeling my food get "stuck" then about a minute later go through the band, and it was not a good feeling but kinda cool to finally feel my band work! I usually have a protein shake for breakfast but am away from home so I had an egg omelet, banana, and two sausage links. I ate about 5 bites of the omelet, both sausage links, and felt full up in my chest....so I stopped and waited for the nausea/pressure to pass. I am telling u all of this because until now I didn't know if what I was eating was ok really, but my doc said it's trial and error 3 wks post op. I def know I did something wrong, either too big of bites, the sausage doesn't agree with me anymore, or maybe I'm not good with solid breakfasts. I think u should try things and if it fills u up with no issues, it's golden! Follow your drs orders as much as u can too! I know others on here have stated breakfast is a time they are tight, so I didn't feel panicked when I had my experience. Listen to ur fellow banders on here! They are amazing! -

4 days post op and I'm worried
limase63 replied to rhaya sunshine's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Same here. Two weeks out. No issues w getting everything in - protein, yogurt, soup. Started feeling like surgeon messed up and made my pouch too big! Everyone says liquids go right through and that nerves are healing, so sense of fullness isn't there. I was (am) worried about drinking shakes too fast, so I decided to try to take 45 min to drink it and measure out everything else. I wish they covered these possibilities in pre surgery classes.

Rice milk vs lactose free milk ??
Mimilou2004 replied to Ecinaj's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Congrats on the slice and dice :eek: I actually really enjoyed my broth while still in the hospital. It was a little harder at home to find one that I really liked. I did sugar free Jello, but sugared popcicles. When I moved onto mushies I had regular pudding and yogurt. I didnt have any problems...

Sandy Related Trouble
SleeveShelly replied to jusstice's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Jusstice, I am not sure about the clear bandages. Did they tell you you could take a shower and get them wet? If so, they will probably come off on their own. I had the same Sharp pain in my side when I would bend too. It will go away with a little time. The applesauce and yogurt is fine. You just might want to make sure there aren't any chunks of fruit or seeds in it. Sounds like you are doing great!! I am so sorry to hear that Sandy has affected you, and I hope you get power back very soon!!! -
frozen yogurt = regular yogurt???
AlysonRR replied to carol413's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Have you tried the strained Greek yogurts that are popping up in grocery stores lately? The two brands I can find out here in WA are Fage and Oikos - they each have ~20g Protein per half cup, are pretty low in carbs, and their texture is quite different from typical yogurt. I like the 0% Fage, but their 2% variety isn't much higher in fat and I've heard it has a better texture. There's another brand in our area - I think it's Greek Gods? - but it doesn't have the high protein so I haven't tried it yet. I like mine mixed half and half with Kashi GoLean and/or Fiber One Cereal and a little honey.
