yogurt help!



Recommended Posts

I need to know the same thing. The lowest I found for non fat Greek yogurt was still 7g of sugar per serving. Is that a lot? Is there a sugar free/fat free Greek yogurt?

I like Dannon Light & Fit Carb Control yogurt. It's hard to find it, but usually I can find it at Wal Mart. It comes in vanilla or strawberry flavors. If I can remember correctly the carbs were 4 or 5 on it. Sorry I am out of it right now.

I use the great value light nonfat yogurt from Walmart. I get strawberry banana and blueberry and I tolerate them well. i have tried numerous greek yogurts and other high Protein yogurts but they hurt my pouch and or I don't like the taste at this point.

I usually just get the nonfat greek yogurt, usually Dannon. I then add sugar free Jello mix. I think it tastes great that, and I usually one use strawberry. I have also tried the Dannon Light & Fit ones. I believe they both have about 8 carbs a serving.

I use Fage plain Greek yogurt and then add Splenda and various types of sugar free jams. Also, Kroger has a light Greek yogurt ( their own store brand) in various flavors that I like. Both kinds are low in sugar!

My nutritionist also told me I should only have plain yogurt and maybe add splenda or sugar free jelly. So I went out and bought plain yogurt with sugar free preserves. I haven't tasted it yet but yeah I was bummed I couldn't have the already made yogurts. It would be easier. The only flavor I really like is strawberry anyway :)

I have been having either Fage or Chobani 0% plain greek yogurt. It never occurred to me to look at the sugar contents because my doc and nut both said to eat it! I have found that it tastes great mixed with PB2 or Just Great Stuff powdered Peanut Butter (or even the chocolate peanut butter). I've also mixed it with caramel sugar-free coffee Syrup (Toryani) and a few slices of mashed banana.

My nut said to stay away from any of the pre-flavored yogurts and to always go for the greek yogurt because it has more Protein. It is easy enough to flavor yourself and it will be better for you than what they sell pre-mixed or in those little cups (like the Fage singles).

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
