Cottage cheese... yuck!



Recommended Posts

Why not just eat yogurt instead?

I agree...cottage cheese is icky! And, I also agree...why not eat greek yogurt instead!

This is just my reasoning but cottage cheese has more Protein and less carbs than even greek yogurt. I like the yogurt better but I'll take the cottage cheese for the higher Protein and lower carbs any day :)

I buy these cottage cheese combo packs. I love them! I'm 15 lbs from goal. strawberry, peach, blue berry, and pineapple flavors

I personally ate yogurt before the sleeve and now I never ever do. I've become obsessed with counting my carb intake and yogurt has a lot.

Cottage cheese and purple grapes (my fav) or with peaches is super yummy!

Try the 4% milk fat large curd cottage cheese. I agree the 1-2% is nasty. I have tried all brands and like Dean's large curd cottage cheese the best. It is more like real cheese. Before my surgery I only at Cottage cheese with pineapple. But now I like it just plain. I actually measure out my 1/2 cup portion, then eat it right from the measuring cup (why dirty a bowl)?

I had to laugh, I've eaten probably 80 % of my food from a 1/2 cup measure ever since my surgery! (over 5 months ago)

On the savory side, I like finely diced green onions, celery and sometimes carrots -- also chopped fresh tomatoes with Kosher salt and pepper (also good with a seasoned salt and/or pepper)

I mix 1/2 cup of Daisy (tastes better than other brands) cottage cheese with 1-2 tablespoons of reduced sugar Craisins and love it. I usually have it for at least 1 if not 2 meals per day.

Cottage cheese with regular salsa or mango salsa very good. I sometimes add cinnamon, nutmeg and a packet of stevia.

I eat the cottage cheese that comes with pineapple and then mix my black cherry Greek yogurts in it. I hated cottage cheese prior to this

      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!!
