Okay, I am simply astounded at how many grams of Protein are in cottage cheese. Un-freakin'-believable! Why wasn't I eating this earlier???

My hubby picked up some FF cottage cheese for me on my pre-op diet and I was just poking my nose in the frig for a snack. Looked at the nutritional info and about dropped to the floor. I have been really working on ways to beef up my protein and just completely missed this one. It has 12 grams of protein per serving. Just crazy good news for me!

Cottage cheese has kept me from dying (not really :grouphug: ) on my pre-op diet. I'm allowed 3 servings of dairy a day, either skim milk, light yogurt or cottage cheese. I eat 2-3 servings of cottage cheese a day instead of the others because it's more filling. I've always like it to I just hope I feel the same way about it when after I'm banded.

After my surgery in March 08, I ate cottage cheeze everyday, I'm not sure why I stopped. Maybe I got bored with it.

Thanks for all the ideas everyone. Im going to start eating it again with some of your great ideas

I used to hate cottage cheese.. and after banding i grew quite fond of it...

you know this is a bad thread to read for a girl who has period cravings... im about to go to the store to by some and eat it with avocado and tomato!!
