Best greek yogurt? Any one's blood sugar ever dropped a little?



Recommended Posts

I was having greek yogurt with just a little bit of the fruit at the bottom. I didn't want all the extra carbs. I saw my NUT today and she said if I have one greek yogurt/day with the fruit that it's fine. Our calories are already so low that there's no way we aren't going to lose weight if we consume some carbs. She told me to aim for no more than 50-60g of carbs/day in the beginning.

Yogurt is tricky because some are super high in carbs/sugar. The Danon light and fit greek has 9 g of carbs and 7 g of sugar which is why I bought it in the first place LOL. I haven't tried the Fage but I'll definitely check it out! I love new food ideas!

Edit: I'm 4 months out and I can consume 90-120 g a day of carbs (max) but I usually stay in the 50-70 range.

I do the Chobani plain with a little bit of liquid stevia mixed in. The Fage is good too.

My fav is Fage 0 plain. I add Splenda and berries. My current fav is blueberries.

A tip on the Fage yogurt that comes with the side of fruit...just let the fruit lie on the top - don't stir it in...I think it tastes better that way (stirring changes the consistency or something)...and it suggests it on the side of the carton, as well, so I guess I am not the only one that thinks this :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
