Greek yogurt add-ins



Recommended Posts

Let's start a new thread! What kind of things do you like to put in your Greek yogurt to amp up the flavor or what do you like to use it as instead of something else?

I just discovered Greek yogurt+ adding to taste a flavor Water packet (cherry limeade, yum!).

This may sound weird, but in the early days post surgery when I didn't want super sweet stuff, I would flavor my greek yogurt with ground ginger and a touch of splenda. Yummy! Plus, ginger is a natural remedy to help soothe nausea and indigestion :)

I put blueberries in mine if it vanilla flavored. I really just like mine like it is. Sometimes I will put some granola or some honey bunches of oats Cereal in it if I want crunchy.

A fellow poster turned me onto this one. I love it:

Plain Greek with cinnamon and a packet of trivia. Reminds me of apple pie!

I add low fat special k granola in mine everyday. It makes it not such a slider with crunch. It is one of the things I refused to give up.

A few dark chocolate chips or a bite size candy bar are for the days when I'm feeling like a little treat! Kicks the sweet craving and I still get my protein!

Chia seeds or flax seeds or sunflower seeds, for some crunch and Fiber. I ALWAYS buy Fage Greek yogurt because I think it tastes the very best, and they sell it packaged with a separate mix-in like cherries, or blueberries, or honey. It's only 17 carbs with their mix-ins, and I usually only use about 1/2 or less. Honey is my favorite, but the seeds are a must for me!

I don't add in anything as they are already flavored or come with granola. I do use them in my Protein Shakes.< /p>

Plain or vanilla greek yogurt with a spoon or 2 of natural Peanut Butter and a squirt of Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup. Or greek yogurt sprinkled with homemade granola for crunch. Both exccelent !!

Just tried this tonight and OMG it was heaven. I had Greek yogurt that a little mix in side of cherries. I scooped out the plain yogurt, added a very chocolatey Protein Powder, stirred until it was like pudding, and topped it with a little of the cherry mixture. Tons of Protein, still low on carbs, and what a yummy, yummy treat! I suppose you could do it with any flavored protein powder ... So, so good, I don't know why I never did this before!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.ย  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.ย  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? Itโ€™s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so Iโ€™m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight.ย It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey โค๏ธย Together, we got this!
