Hey if you guys are into Greek yogurt, I found Dannon Light & Fit Greek yogurt. It has 80 calories, 8g of carbs and 12g of protein! It's not bad. I love mu mullers, but that has lie 23g of carbs for 9 g of Protein. Just thought I'd share.

Oh yes Greek yogurt is good and very versatile. And it helps keep the digestive tract going! I do the Chobani Zero plain - 7g carbs and 18g protein, which is the most for a Greek yogurt I believe. I sweeten it with a little Splenda and add a few drops of vanilla or almond extract for a nice rich flavor. Or you can add in a little Crystal Light or other sugar-free drink mix and make your own flavors to keep it interesting.

Mmmmm....thanks for the tip I bought some strawberry alittle while ago and it is very yummy. I just wish I could find more flavors and single cups. Wegmans only sells the 4 pack in strawberry, blueberry and vanilla. I wonder if Tops has more variety.

I love the Dannon Fit & Light GREEK blends. I also suggest the Healthy Choice GREEK Frozen Yogurt - four flavors at Wegmans.

I bought the single cups 6 oz. at Tops for $1.19 each. They had vanilla and strawberry. Gonna have to try the blueberry. I want to use this to make my smoothies. Anything to help get the Protein in especially when I don't do protein powders. If you find other flavors let me know. Also toning to try to flavor the chobani with the Jello stuff too! Thanks for the idea!

Darners73,

Basically I just use a little bit of low cal orange juice about 1/4 cup or unsweetened almond milk, a container of Greek yogurt (6oz.) strawberries, blueberries, and spinach. If you can tolerate Protein Powder add that too. I put it in a magic bullet or blender and after everything is blended, I had ice to make it slushy. I love it, kinda addicted to them too! Let me know how it goes.

      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.
