Chobani yogurt



Recommended Posts

Hey,

I've been eating Chobani fruited Greek yogurt, I love them. I eat the top portion and then a little of the yogurt with the fruit at the bottom. Yummy!

My question...If I buy the plain Chobani yogurt, will it still have the slight sweetness that the fruited ones have on top?

The plain to me is good, but it has a little more tartness. I use the plain in the place of sour cream for all things- you can't really tell the difference. Even my really picky husband can't.

I do the Chobani but add 1 oz of very low fat granola to get extra Protein. Whatever you do, don't try the Chobani flips-- the "fruit" on the side is like sweetened preserves. Its not only gross but way worse for you.

I add 1/2 scoop Protein powder mix then add some high Protein Cereal and couple walnuts.

I'm gonna try the granola idea, and the Protein addition. I'm going to do plain yogurt, then use the fruited ones for a splurge.

Thanks guys, you gave me some great ideas and opinions. It helps! :D

I'm not a big fan of Chobani's plain yogurt. Oikos vanilla is delicious though, especially with a few fresh blueberries, sliced strawberry or banana. It has a couple grams less Protein but is sweeter.

My memory of plain Greek yogurt is pretty foul. Just my opinion but just because we had weight loss surgery doesn't mean that we shouldn't enjoyed the food that we eat. I would try a fruit yogurt and then the plain yogurt and decide if the 20 calories you save is really worth the flavor of plain yogurt.

I don't think it's a calorie issue with what type of yogurt you choose. Greek yogurt has a lot more Protein . Sometimes you just have to try some different things. I recently tried dannon fit Greek and it is now my favorite. I think it is around 5 oz 80 calories and 12 protein. I rarely eat yogurt because I try to stick to solids but it's good for me to keep around.

I've read a lot of posts on this site that make it sound like those who have fruited yogurt are eating a hot fudge sundae. That the carbs they're getting from fruit are the biggest sin in the world. Drives me crazy because most of us did not get obese from eating fruited yogurt.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
