I don't hate cottage cheese!



Recommended Posts

I haven't had cottage cheese in years and I did not remember it fondly... But in the interest of quality Protein and much needed Fiber I bought Fiber One cottage cheese to try.

I liked it. Would it be good with some salsa added do you think?

Fiber one makes cottage cheese!? Is it fibery?

I don't think I'd love it w salsa. My mom used to make it with applesauce. I like it with pineapple (cold). Some put pepper.

That does not sound appetizing. Sliced garden tomatoes and a sprinkle of black pepper sure sounds yummy though!

I too tried cottage cheese for the first time in many many years and I think I like it. It's kinda plain tho, interested in trying it with things that are savory. Not interested in sweets with it.

My 20 day preop consisted of cottage cheese and Protein Drinks. I loved cottage cheese but I think if I so much as looked at it now I would hurl lol. You name it I tried it to change/help with the taste. Mrs dash isn't bad regular or southwest, dry hidden valley ranch (very little) was ok, but I liked a bit of Campbell's Tomato Soup mixed it. Traditionally I've always doused it in black pepper just like my dad lol :)

I'm pre-op & I eat cottage cheese now & love it. I sometimes have it for Breakfast with a teaspoon of sugar free jam mixed in. I've also had some halved green grapes in it or pineapple or applesauce.

Since I'm Type 2 diabetic, I can't eat a regular plate of Pasta, so I've taken about 2 oz of angel hair or spaghetti with marinara & mixed in a couple heaping tablespoons of cottage cheese (sorta like a lasagna) to help fill me up without eating too many carbs. It's been good all the ways I've tried it so far.

Someone was talking about blending it with canned pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Maybe some Splenda or honey added too. ?? The texture gets to me (unsleeved) I'm hoping I get over that.

Adding pumpkin sounds yummy.

      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

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
