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!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
