mix 1/2 packet of crystal light with 6 oz of yogurt.. :)

source: http://www.shape.com...-lillien?page=7

you could also add a bit of Water to that & then pour the mix into a popsicle mold & make some cream pops. :)

sugar free, low-fat lemon frozen greek yogurt: http://www.theperfec...eek-yogurt.html

all sorts of yogurt pop recipes: http://allrecipes.co...eslikethis.aspx

cheesecake in a cup: 1 sugar free flavored Syrup of your choice (raspberry, blueberry, etc), 6 oz of greek yogurt, 1 tbsp sugar free cheesecake pudding mix... mix together & enjoy. :)

greek yogurt & avocado paleta: http://allrecipes.co...eslikethis.aspx

^^^ on that one, instead of sugar, add your favorite sugar substitute & instead of 2 avocados, use 6 oz of greek yogurt and one avocado.. personally, i would use swerve sweetener, because it's natural, doesn't have a funky aftertaste, is low calorie, can be measured 1 to 1 with sugar & does not raise blood sugar, so it's low glycemic.. you can buy it at whole foods or natural food/health stores or online at: http://www.swervesweetener.com/

Protein pudding: http://www.yummly.co...Free-Recipezaar

1 box of any flavor sugar free pudding mix, 2 scoops of Protein powder (probably vanilla flavored or something that would go with your pudding choice, or make the pudding vanilla so it goes with your Protein Powder choice..), 1 1/2 cups of Water or milk.. then chill.. you could probably make popsicles out of these, too. :) << i really like the concept of that one.. cause it sneaks in extra Protein & you're opened up on what you can have, because there's tons of pudding flavors and tons of flavors of protein powders.. so you could have something that tastes like french vanilla Cappuccino, cookie dough, etc.. or have pistachio or banana pudding flavor.. and if you added a bit of water to thin it out, you could make popsicles, so the batch lasts longer. :)

greek yogurt gelato: http://www.seriousea...ato-recipe.html

^^ sub sugar for your favorite sugar free alternative.. could also use lime instead of lemon.. or use some other kind of citrus.. like yuzu, orange, etc..

if you wanted something savory, you could probably puree this one.. http://www.seriousea...ger-recipe.html it's got peas, potatoes & uses greek yogurt.. it's a curry... but you could make it non-spicy by omitting the cayenne pepper. you could add a bit more yogurt to taste & thin it out to your preferred consistency with some water.

I put Syntrax Nectar into the plain. It gives me 20 grams of Protein in one yogurt. Then I can drink one Protein Shake, instead of 2 (yuck).

I never thought there could be this many different types of foods, drinks etc to satisfy the palate. No excuses for sure (for me at least). :D:P

I have found that cottage cheese with sugar free Syrup, mixed in a magic bullet, is pretty darned good. Don't knock it till you've tried it! I think 1/2 c. is 11 g of Protein and if you add a nectar instead, that's like what? 32 g of protein? I'm going to have to try it first before I commit to telling you to try it tho.... GOOD LUCK!

Ok did you try it? I did and YUCK :( I unhappily report. But blended cottage cheese with a sugar free Torani Syrup is good (caramel and it reminds me of pralines and cream). But green apple nectar in it, yuck :( Dang it... let me know if yours was better!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
