For RNY peeps, is there a brand that I can use that has the least sugar? I like the taste of Dannon light & fit Greek, but I noted even it has 8 grams of sugar. Mind you I can only eat 1/2 at a time so I'm getting 6 Protein 4 sugar in each serving but wondering if anyone has a favorite that's less sugar still high in protein???

Oikos Triple Zero in the black containers. All the NUTs are now recommending them. They aren't bad. The triple zero stands for zero sugar, zero fat, and zero artificial sweeteners or something like that.

Thanks. I just ate almost an entire 5.3 oz container of yogurt 10 days post op, don't think I really got a full feeling from it yet, is this bad? Should I have been able to eat that much this soon? Are there signs I should look for to know I'm full? Guess I'm not feeling the restriction I expected, but maybe it's cuz it's yogurt not solid food?

Just because you are not full does not mean you should keep eating. In fact, we should never get "full". (note--even though I am writing this to you, I am actually telling this to myself because I also keep eating until I'm full). My surgeon and NUT said that if there were a scale of 1-10 where 1 is starving and 10 is very full, we should be just below a 5. Just slightly on the hungry side but not really hungry.

Thanks I actually had my post op appointment today and doctor said same thing 1/4 cup for now or less if I can feel I need to stop and make it last 30 minutes

Do the Oikos triple zero have chunks of fruit in them?

If you purchase a zero sugar or no added sugar yogurt any of the sugar grams are naturally occuring in the yogurt itself, you can't get away from it. The whipped greek yogurt that I have had, sorry can't remember the brand, I think dannon is delicious and comes in all sorts of flavors, the coconut one is yummy!

My nut recommended

Siggi yogurt. All natural , high Protein low sugar. Thick like Greek yogurt but not sweet . I love it!

My NUT also recommended Siggi Yogurt but I didn't love it. I may give it another try just to be sure. But it's a nice change of pace anyway. I found it at Target.

Most grocery stores sell Siggi, but it is a little pricy for yogurt.

      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... :(
