Greek Yogurt

I am on a 3 week PreOp diet I have been told I can drink 4-5 protein shakes a day (160 cal max) and have clear liquids. I was also told I can have greek yogurt. My question is what kind? The ones with fruit and vanilla are pretty high in carbs but the plain is awful. What kind did you all have to eat. I know I will need this for after also.

Oikos is good, I get the traditional style with no fruit on the bottom (can't have the fruit on the bottom kind yet) and I found a new one at Walmart called vokos and i like it a lot!!!

Fat free and sugar free. There are a ton of brands. Also try Icelandic yogurt at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, it's even higher protein than Greek.

What do you put in it to stop the sour taste? I had the FAGE this morning plain 0% and I used a splenda in it. Is this what everyone does?

If I had to eat the plain kind I would just skip the yogurt all together!!

Put it in with your shake in the blender! It will make it thicker!

Fage is the best!

I like the Voskos brand Greek yogurt, as well as Brown Cow and sometimes Chobani. I am a yogurt snob and won't eat any yogurt that isn't 100% natural. I refuse to put artificial sweeteners or flavors in it. All natural yogurt will have a few more carbs, so I just eat low carb elsewhere, or don't eat as much of the yogurt.

try fage with honey

I put a little bit of sugar free hershey's chocolate syrup in mine with a splenda. It's yummy.

Yes. I would put stevia in it and a bit of vanilla extract.

I put 1/4 c of sf vanilla pudding and 1/4 c of greek yogurt stir and add pumpkin spice or apple pie spice and makes it tasty. I am out 14 days and feeling great.

I get plain non-fat Greek yogart. I put local honey, lemon juice or stevia in it.

I love the idea of pumpkin spice....I am going to have to pick some up today....love most anything pumpkin. Thanks for sharing!

i was told to only eat dannon light and fit. same for greek yogurt. :( chobani and the oikos have too much sugar/carbs.

I love Dannon light and fit greek. It's the only brand that my nutritionist allows. She said all the others have too much sugar. They have tons of great flavors. Strawberry, blueberry, pineapple, cherry. But my absolute favorite is the toasted coconut vanilla. It tastes like dessert! I eat at least one a day, they're a great protein source.
