Ode to greek yogurt.



Recommended Posts

I must confess that when we first met I had a preformed opinion about you....

And those thoughts I had? After I tasted, yes they were true!

Sour, off putting, there is something wrong here! tastes so bad it must be good for you!

We had barely meet but I knew we must go our separate ways...

I'm sorry to say this, but you were easy to replace. A love affair with shakes will do that, you know.

I must confess as the time wore on I gave you little thought quite honestly.

By chance (and a bit of desperation) we met again.

But I still wasn't willing to take you as you are.. I hid you under layers of sweetness. But then something funny started happening! I began to look forward to our daily meeting.. And day by day I found that I wanted more of your tart sour ways! The things that I used to hide you? They were not what I craved! It was you! You all along!

So my drops of sweetness became less and less without me even realizing it.

I am sorry that I overlooked you. And I am even more sorry that I felt that I needed to change you.. You are good for me, and I must say,

I look forward to our meetings each and everyday!

:D

Do you have a favorite brand and flavor?

Fage 2% plain.

I guess that's what I'm saying... is that I sweetened it with stevia and frozen blueberries but as the weeks go on I'm finding that I want to sweeten it less and less... It's natural flavor is something I'm enjoying now...

I guess I could of said it just like this and it would of been shorter and more to the point eh?

:P

I get to try the Greek on Monday. Cannot wait! Good to know about sweetening it with Stevia. Will definitely try that if it's too sour. I also would love to hear the recipe for the frozen Protein Bites.< /p>

      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!!
