Yonanas?

[bringiton 68]

Anyone else have this machine? You just insert a frozen banana and it comes out like soft serve. Would this be considered a purée?

I just ordered mine yesterday. I should have it in a few days. You can do more then frozen bananas with it. There are a few people here that have one. If you search yonanas on here you will find a lot of info. Good, bad, and indifferent. Reading what others said helped me make my decision to buy. I'm on soft foods, so I figured it would work for that. When I hit 6 weeks I'm going to try adding berries and citrus.

Did you know that a banana is basically a big sugar stick? I am 10 months post-op and still only eat 1/4 to a 1/2 banana once in a while (less than once per week). Though it has potassium, which is good for you, I just can't justify the sugars.

A medium banana has 30 g of sugar (essentially all the calories come from the sugar - about 120 calories!). That's about 1/2 of my day's worth of carbs (and I exercise alot!). Until I was 6 months post-op, I was limiting my carbs to less than 40 g per day. One banana would have been 75% of my carbs for the day!

Oh and on that note I buy frozen mango chunks at trader joes throw some of those in the food processor with a banana and a little milk..

My son loves it

As I stated above you can use things OTHER then bananas. Like oh I don't know, fat free greek yogurt with Protein powder. My surgeon sets our carbs at <15 a meal. 5 meals a day and OH NO!! Im over 40. Carbs are needed for energy production. Having 2-3oz of something natural is way better then eating processed fake sugar laced with preservatives that is pure chemicals.

Everything in moderation. An occasional banana is not what caused us to need surgery.

FYI you have to put frozen fruit in the yonanas, you can't put in yogurt or Protein Powder.< /p>

You can use berries or melons but I think anything mixed with bananas is the best

Product reviews state yogurt can be used as long as it is frozen solid, much like the fruit.
