Just curios im 2 Weeks post-op And would like to know what is the best butter to use after WLS? Smart balance, yogurt butter( forgot the name)

What does anyone else use?

I don't use it unless we HAVE to. We use water to saute in. I use Pam on the griddle. If veggies need a little, we use I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. I know, chemicals, but... well... it works for us.

I use real butter, but I also seldom need butter on anything. I usually use pam or a little olive oil.

Yeah, same for us. We use so little - even my wife since I've been eating healthier she has too. With the small amount we eat I don't expect it matters what you use. I had a toasted cheese sandwich the other night, first amount of butter i've used in weeks.

Just pick something you like the taste of and watch the portions like a hawk.

I have used Brummel and Brown yogurt butter for years, and have continued to use post-WLS. It tastes the best, melts evenly, and has a good fat content.

I've always loved B&B. We use it in everything, and anything. When I was trying to get into maintenance, I switched to regular fat-laden butter for the extra fat grams, and calories.

Fat isn't the enemy especially when we low carb it.

When I have to, I use Smart Balance but I have learned that chicken, beef, or vegitable stocks work great when I saute veggies. I use olive oil cooking spray as well.

Now that I don't do carbs, I use so much less butter. I actually can't remember the last time I used butter. I am a fan of the I can't believe it's not butter spray for veggies as needed. Clams are on sale this week, so when we have clams, I'll likely use some real butter for dipping. I use olive oil spray for when I saute or make omelets.

Thank you all! Im a mother of 3 And in process of trasitioning the whole family to a healthier lifestyle. There are so many diff. Butters that say their the healthiest, so I needed some other opinions TY : )

I second the love for Brummell & Brown!

I don't use a whole lot of oils when cooking but I do use butter when scrambling my eggs. I use Land O Lakes Butter Spread w/ Olive Oil. I love it and its a lot lighter and fluffier than normal butter.

Since I don't use this stuff a lot I just use the real deal. It tastes better and I've never once found a knock off that really tastes like real butter.

I use Pam when cooking eggs, but I do have I Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray and the Lite butter in the tub for cooking when it is called for.

I don't really pay attention to the brand I use. I also pay more attention to the carb content than the calories. I also use so little of it, I don't think it really matters.

Regular, full fat butter. Although I only use it when I scramble an egg or when I make crunchy wheat toast. Otherwise, I really don't have much use for butter. I, personally, don't want to use anything but real cream butter. I try to eat minimally processed foods.

Good luck!

Yeah, I love that it's no carbs.
