Chobani Greek Yogurt



Recommended Posts

I was finally able to find the Chobani, and it was pretty good. The one's with the fruit in the bottom were too sweet for me though, so I'll have to get the plain if I try it again. Found out that they have a TUB of the FAGE at costco here now. It was only $6.49; it's $2 EACH for the small containers at the local grocery...

Loving the Greek Yogurt...

I buy 8 oz containers at Fresh & Easy for $1.49. Everything I saw at the grocery tonight was 6 or 7 oz and was $1.99; the F&E is really good (once you mix in the SF syrup). How many oz. is the tub at costco, do you know?

The tub at costco is 35.3 oz, and the regular sized FAGE 6 oz is $1.99. I really love the FAGE (pronounced: Fa-Yeh), so it's worth it... but knowing it's a Costco made me sooooo happy! YUM! :) Oh, and I LOVE Fresh and Easy. Isn't it great! :thumbup:

What sugar free Syrup do you recommend? I think maybe some pureed whole-fruit would be good, as the syrupy fruit isn't working for me...

When I get coffees with those syrups, I always get the caramel, or french vanilla.

Even whole fruit has a lot of carbs in them, I know they are natural sugars, but if you're watching carbs just be aware they turn to sugar in our bodies as well.

I know they have a strawberry cream syrup that people on OH have raved about.

I have found the holy grail of Greek Yogurt. Okay, well at least I think it's fabulous.

Chobani Non-Fat Greek yogurt with fruit on the bottom. It tastes just like any of the Yoplait/Dannon yogurts that I've had in the past. It's smooth, creamy, and not bitter.

Here's a coupon code for a Buy 2 Get 1 Free Chobani Coupon.

I love the strawberry and pineapple. I found these at our Publix grocery store on sale 10 for $10.

It's a little high on the carb count, but I'm assuming it's from the fruit.

Thanks for that Tiff I just printed off my coupon. I love this brand and especially with the fruit on the bottom. I've been buying this brand but already premixed. I hope I can find it with the fruit on the bottom.

Thanks, Tiff. Good point... I just felt like the stuff in the bottom was too sweet. So, I'll try some of those sugar free syrups... But, I do like the yogurt plain too. :thumbup:

I love the chobani, but love OIKOS even more. However, I have to save those for 'special occasions'. I switched to Fage, and have been mixing it with the crystal light sugar free iced tea to go powder. You only need half a pack, and at a WHOOPING 2.5 calories with no carbs and no sugar, I am a happy camper.

Coopers... That is a GREAT idea about trying the Crystal Light. I wouldn't have thought of that... I'll try it, and see if I like it. :wink0:

I guess I'm on a yogurt rampage... found another cool kind today. It's called SKYR, which is an Icelanic version of yogurt. Fat-Free and thick and yummy. AND, a LOT of Protein. 16 grams per 6 oz! Check it out. It's a bit on the spendy side, but DE-LISH! Oh, and they only sweeten with Agave, which is something I hadn't thought of... and I have Agave here, so I'm going to try that as a little touch of sweet in my FAGE as well.

Has anyone been able to find, and try, the SKYR yogurt yet? This stuff is by far the thickest and most high-Protein (and DELISH) yogurt I've found, besides the FAGE (Fa-Yeh). I have discovered that in both, I like the "plain" but it gets a bit boring, so I've decided to add a smidge of low/no-sugar added preserves for taste, texture, and to change it up... Good call. :smile1:

Best to you all! - a

      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.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
