Does Anyone Make Yogurt @ Home?



Recommended Posts

I just bought a Euro Cuisine Automatic Yogurt maker. I have read, that Greek Yogurt has more Protein in it than regular yogurt. Does anyone know how I can make Greek yogurt????? The yogurt maker I bought doesn't really have any recipes to help me. Im new at this so im not even sure how to figure out the nutrition info like calories, carbs, protein, etc. once I make it. If anyone can please help me out with this I would be forever thankful. Thanks in advance for reading my post.

I tried to figure it out as well. The only thing that I found online was that after making the yogurt you were to let it strain in a cheese cloth to concentrate it. Not sure if it works or how it would increase the Protein content. I gave up and just bought the commercial greek yogurts. Hope you find what you are looking for. I enjoyed home made yogurt but wanted the increased protein of greek.

Greek is just the concentrated form,, so when you strain home made yogurt the concentrated Protein

will be left in the cloth after the watery part is strained away, hence more protein. My Nut said,home made yogurt is as good -- infact better, because we can make plain yogurt & mix whatever we wish to have with it at that very moment - wether its vanilla; fruit extract or just pepper.

      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.
