Greek Yogurt



Recommended Posts

I've been using Dannon Oiko's for my shakes. Does anyone know of a brand that's not so overpoweringly sour?

I just started liking Greek yogurt for the non fat and high Protein I kept trying to find one I can tolerate... I found the oikos ones and can actually eat it. I never put them in a shake.... Will have to try :)

the yogurt i have been eating pre op (and due to an abscessed tooth which was pulled today) is called carb master. it is only available at Krogers or maybe Ralphs if you have one of those. Low fat, low carb, low sugar

I have been adding about a teaspoon and a half of sugar free pudding mix and a scoop of unflavored Protein Powder and eating this two or three times a day. Good source of Protein and feels like you are eating some

pretty fancy desert. not horribly sweet though. I will probably hate it after surgery, but right now it is my best

friend. Especially with this tooth problem.

You could probably do the same with the greek yogurt to tame some of the tartness,

No I've just been using the vanilla to mix in my shakes.

Excuse me for just letting this fly outta my mouth but I got some fage regular....added some splenda, vanilla & strawberry preserves and it tastes like ass. Steer clear of this horrible stuff....or either stear your car into my driveway and ill send you home with some.

Hmmm...perhaps a little harsh? I have only had the fage with fruit...sugar comes from the fruit so its not quite as big a hitter on the sugars. I would imagine if you are blending it yourself, the taste could become imbalanced. But...seriously, many at work like it, and there are two other girls with gastric bypass...so mine is not the only opinion. But, it does have less sugar than the competitors, so maybe you prefer it sweeter than I.

I love smoothies and like them sweet. My fave sweetener to add to them is stevia and a little light oj. My mix ins are Greek yogurt, spinach, Protein powder, berries, and sometime bananas or almond butter.

I tried the Chobani ones and found them to be very tart. I threw them out.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
