I have included a recipe for a Blueberry smoothie that uses Greek Yogurt in a short article I wrote on Bariatric Surgery. It is available at http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf In the later stages of weight loss, I used it as a Protein supplement. But this option may not be advisable immediately after surgery.

If you are talking about plain greek yogurt, it does take time to get used to it. I used to add peanut butter, or protein powder to mine. Then I started adding Torani syrup. Now I have started using it to replace mayo in my tuna salad. I use a little lemon pepper in the yogurt and mix 2 tablespoons with 4 oz tuna. I think it rocks!

Try it with chocolate protein powder. I hate it too but plan on trying that. My hubby uses swiss miss when he eats plain yogurt and loves it. -
Protein levels low ????

You could try foods that are both high protein and high carb, like yogurt, beans, and tofu? -
Not a big fan of yogurt and never ate it. Still managed to lose 150 lbs. and with the help of Biotin and Protein powder, didn't lose all my hair either.

I have to agree with you Dub, Oikos Greek yogurt is tasty.. you to mix it well as it sometimes has a chalk consistency if not mixed well, that was the only learning curve I have to get use to when I crossed over from regular yogurt to Greek. -
3 weeks today post VSG. Sailed through recovery but in the dreaded stall for 2 weeks now. On,y 3 pounds off in the last two weeks. Can you look at my food for today and provide any thoughts. It looks good to me. FYI, the yogurt is homemade with a scoop of chocolate Protein powder. The 2 HB eggs are in egg salad. Thanks. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I am a yogurt fan from way back....Greek has bit more tangy taste IMO but I love it. I do not care for plain unless I am substituting it for sour cream. I like the great value flavors from walmart as well!

Want to chug... So thirsty
winklie replied to cjd2010's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It gets better. Sip sip sip. Just keep at it. I get well over 70 oz of liquid a day without any real effort. It took a week or so to get to that point. Also depending on your diet, try things that will keep your mouth wet for longer periods of time, like pudding or yogurt. There are a lot of thing that just plain suck at first, but they get better. Honestly Basic Training was worse than this and I survived that, so I have no doubt I can make it through this. Best of luck -
I love greek yogurt but i also add fruit like kiwi fruit and blue barrios and it tastes great! thats berries not barrios.....grrr typos

How much do you eat a day
winklie replied to sarahbethemails's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Today marks day 15 post op. My eating schedule is pretty standard, I imbibe about 700 calories a day > 100 grams of Protein and more than 70 oz of Water. Breakfast (two parts) Part one, coffee, with splenda and a shot of 2% milk (Cannot drink coffee with less than 2% milk, just can't) shake #1 11 oz milk, 42 oz unjury Protein powder (I mix 50% vanilla and 50% chocolate) lunch, is more of a brunch, I eat later. But is consists of shake #2. dinner = something, perhaps some pudding, or yogurt (Dannon Light and Fit Greek are fantastic). I also may have cream of chicken Soup, or broth, I try and keep dinner light as I eat is a bit late, but varied. I have a water bottle grafted to my hand, and a 32oz bottle that I fill 16oz at a time with crystal light (buy every flavor and rotate) as I finish a bottle I mark down another 16 oz of water. I log everything in Fitbit. My diet changes tomorrow (cannot wait!) I should mention I also have Isopure carb free protein powder, I was out of Unjury due to poor planning, and needed a shake in a hurry. no PDCASS score, so it's probably crap, but I sub that in place of Unjury from time to time, because, well, I spent $50 on it and I am going to use it, lol. -
I'm a dude who didn't care for yogurt. It's something I sidestepped and reached for other unhealthy garbage. Once I entered the diet prior to the pre-op liquid diet, I gave Greek yogurt a try due to it's higher Protein content. I'm a big football fan and had seen Cam Newton's Oikos Triple Zero Greek Yogurt commercials and figured I'd give it a go. I was very impressed with the flavor and thought it was great. Every flavor was really to my liking. I gave other brands of Greek yogurt a try and never found one I liked as much as the Oikos Triple Zero. None were as healthy, either. Give it try if you don't get dialed in on another brand. I'm 7 days post-op, 3rd week of liquids with a few more weeks of liquids to go. I am very much looking forward to the days ahead when I can have my Greek yogurt. It's going to be awesome..

Greek yogurt:/ Yuck!

Are you pre op? I could not stand any kind of yogurt or any flavor prior to surgery. My taste buds changed a lot after surgery and I tried yogurt and actually liked it!! I was even surprised that my favorite flavor is plain old vanilla. -

I LOVE trader joes nonfat European style yogurt! Not sure the carb/protein count tho. I put a ton of turmeric powder and a little liquid stevia, sometimes some cinnamon since that stuff is good for inflammation in general...might be too spicy after surgery tho. -

If you really can't tolerate Greek yogurt, try Noosa. It has less Protein, and more calories and carbs than most Greek yogurts, but it is AMAZING. I eat it for dessert as a guilt-free treat. It comes in 4 oz sizes. The lemon tastes like lemon meringue pie filling and the blueberry is awesome. (120-130 calories, 9 gm protein, 14 gm carbs). -

I like the Dannon Light & Fit Greek. It comes in lots of flavors and the calories, sugars and carbs are low and the Protein is high. http://www.lightandfit.com/light-yogurt/light-and-fit-greek/strawberry-cheesecake -
I don't like yogurt either, I think it tastes like flavored cold cream, but I love Noosa yogurt ! A unique product, so good ! Only about 8 flavors, each one has a different amount of protein, so google for more info. I personally love the coconut, my hubby likes the blueberry. Mmmmmmm. And while I dont eat it daily, I still get plenty of protein in almonds, lean meats, beans , raw spinach, etc

61 and Getting Sleeved 9/15-need a hand to hold!
Missy Ellen replied to Missy Ellen's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi folks-well it's been 5 weeks since my sleeve and it's been challenging to find things I can eat that don't either stick in my chest or go right through me. I'm getting sick of yogurt, cottage cheese, pudding, chicken broth and water. I hate the taste of all those diet drinks. I had sea bass the other night at a restaurant and it went right through me. (I had about 3-4 tbs). Now I'm afraid to eat in restaurants. Is it too early to be eating Real Food, in a restaurant? Will this ever get better? I'm always full of gas, probably because I'm not eating very much. Will that get better? I had a piece of cheese and some pudding with some fat free "kool whip" type stuff on it and now I'm having those intestinal gurgles, so I know what's next! Why??? Help please? I'll talk to my Surgeon Tuesday for my 6 week check up, but hear real experiences really help! Thanks!! -

Wish I had a good answer for ya, but I feel kind of the same way. I'm not a big fan of plain yogurt. Was going to try some flavored Stevia, or sugar free jello mix, or my protein hot cocoa mix. Those have got to make it taste better, right? I wonder what chocolate or strawberry protein powder in it would taste like! Good luck. When is your surgery date? -
Ditto. I LOVE greek yogurt and since it's a good source of Protein I eat a lot of it. The goal is to find good, clean (meaning not heavily processed) sources of protein that are easily digestible. Go to the market and start reading labels. May be try cottage cheese or ricotta baked with a little shredded cheese.

So yesterday I did pretty crappy I don't mean that I over ate I mean I couldn't stomach a Protein shake so I had broth two times and a yogurt and that was it. I woke up exhausted today obviously lack of energy. I've done well today two Protein shakes, broth and I'll try to have a yogurt or some Jell-O before bed I also have done OK on my Water today. T minus two days to real food...

If you don't like it, then don't eat it. You're a grown adult, the nut works for you, and she should help you find other ways to get your protein in. There are many vegans and lactose intolerant patients that get along just fine without yogurt. I happen to like Greek yogurt, but if someone was telling my I HAD to eat turnips or liver I would tell them to go pound sand.

I need help... I can imagine eating yogurt everyday. I plan on trying a bite a day to get used to the taste of it. Any tricks to eating this stuff?
-
Try it with some honey... Yes, honey is high in sugar, but it's the protein that you're looking at... Honey definitely takes the edge off the tangy yogurt...

I am not a fan of yogurt but my NUT say it's very important to eat for protein. I break down and buy some and use no calorie sweeter just as recommended.... Seriously wanted to vomit!! I need help with this... Any suggestions? I plan on trying a bite a day so that I can get used to it.
