I am not sure because I got mine as a gift. I would look in the appliance section for any type of mini blender.

generally, the Greek yogurt is the only one that is low carb. If you get the plain, you can add sugar free Syrup with zero carbs to make it tasty.

organdaisy where do you find greek yogurt? I have never seen that kind. I live in Ohio so is it at Wal-mart, Krogers or somewhere like that?

Hy Shyone!

I found greek yogurt last night at the grocery store.

Yoplait has just come out with one too.

I love what Oregon Daisy has suggested with the sugar free Syrup and the plain greek yogurt. Thats what I will do next time.

I just mainly bought it as the protien is double in them.

Thank you guys I found the greek yogurt at Wal-mart. But the sugar content was 8 or 9 g which is not too bad compared to the 12g in the yougurt I was buying ( yoplait light). Also, i did find a blender and food processer at wal-mart it came all in one so I was happy about that. Now all I need is to get my EKG and my pulse ox done and hopefully I will get approved and have an exact date soon. I can not wait!!! One yougurt was called yo plus it has 9g of sugar and the other is greek yougurt vanilla and it has 8g of sugar. I did not see any with lower grams of sugar but then again I was in a rush because i had to go pick up my daughter. I meet a person today that had the RNY done and she had lost 100 lbs in 6 months. She also stated that she had a relative that had the sleeve and she had the same results. She went from a size 22 to a size 4. WOW that is amazing. I can not wait until I can say that I have lost 160lbs or more and in a size 4. Sorry I am rambling on but the more people I meet that have this done the more excited that I get for my surgery to be done. I am so glad that I found this forum because all of you have been a great support and I haven't even had the surgery yet. You all are greatly appreciated!!!

The Greek yogurt with fruit already mixed in is going to be higher in carbs but it's so yummy.

Shyone, If you have a costco, I've been told you can buy quarts of it there pretty cheap. A lot of people really like the brand Fage.

That's why I buy the plain and mix in sf syrups most of the time, to keep the carb count down. The plain is also higher in Protein.

We do not have a costco here in Mansfiled Ohio. Maybe I can check somewhere else for it like Sams or Wal-mart when I have more time.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
