Great Greek Yogurt Idea



Recommended Posts

I met with my NUT this week and she suggested putting lemon Crystal Light in non fat Greek vanilla yogurt. Just tried it...I mixed a little less than half the packet into the yogurt. I have to say that it tasted like a tangy lemon pudding! It was delicious and I got more Protein in! I think I'm going to try orange Crystal Light next to see if it tastes like a Creamsicle.

great idea-thanks! I love making a parfait out of mine with some chunky homemade applesauce, (a few tsps), cinammon and sprinkle of kashi on top!

Is it true the regular no flavored Greek yogurt can be made into dips and is replaceable to sour cream?

Yes. I do recommend using Fage though, Chiobani tastes a bit off.

I make my own homemade Greek yogurt. It's easy. Then I put some fruit in a food chopper, add some liquid Splenda and mix it in to my nice thick yogurt. Yummy!!

That sounds good. I don't care for the sweeteners tho. :(

First "crab eggs" now "egg faces". Do you ever eat anything with a normal name?

May I ask what egg faces are?

I love Greek yogurt! I used to put honey in it but I heard you can't post op. did they say no to free flavored cups like the 110 cal strawberry Greek yogurt cups?

      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.

      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!!
