Need Greek Yogurt Suggestions



Recommended Posts

Oikos is delicious, honey has no chunks.

I tried the blueberry flavor, and have to say it did not do it for me. They are not bad, but not my idea of a treat.

I agree---not worth the calories for me.

I add half a scoop of vanilla whey isolate powder to chobani fruited yogurt and have it every day for Breakfast. Never had a proble with the texture. I do add benefiber and splendra. Once that is mixed up I add Kashi Go Lean high Protein Cereal.

What brand of the whey isolate powder do you recommend? Thanks!

I make a thick cream Soup out of Greek yogurt. I Get Lipton cup of soup cream soup powder, a couple of tablespoons of mild taco sauce, half a cup of Greek yogurt, and two to three tablespoons of Benefiber clear. It's low cal, fat free, high Fiber, and quashes the urge for Mexican food

OMG, I finally went out of my element (only Yoplait yogurt) and tried Chobani pineapple Yogurt. It was good without Splenda, but GREAT with 2 packs of Splenda. I am glad I tried it!! Now I will try some other flavors by Chobani.

I like Zoi brand greek yogurt the best. I get the vanilla and Honey flavors. I love the idea of adding some crystal light for flavoring to it, although I do enjoy it like it is. I like this brand much better than Chiobani or Yoplait

I bought a Chobani twelve-pack at costco, and it has peach, strawberry, and blueberry. I like them all, but always eat all of the peach containers first. I bought a couple of pineapple but haven't tried them yet. I did find a new Yoplait flavor (caramel) at Wal-mart, but I like the Chobani brand's texture and flavor much better.

I've never seen the Zoi brand before. Where do you buy it?

I am in the Boise Idaho area, and there is a store called Winco that I get it at. Sometimes I can find it at Wal-mart as well. Its cheaper than Oikos or Chiobani and I love the flavor and texture of it.

I have been making fruit/yogurt parfait with the honey flavored for Breakfast lately, and its so satisfying and tastes great.

Thanks for your reply, bluetigereyes. I have never heard of Winco, but numerous Walmart stores are nearby, so I will look for it there. I appreciate the suggestion!

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
