I just can not eat yogurt. I have tried various flavors and brands... Its def a texture thing with me. Can't stand sour cream or cottage cheese either. Anyone have any good alternatives???

Well.. I just noticed you haven't had surgery yet?

So I guess your talking pre op? Or perhaps post op? If its post op when you are in the full liquid stage you are probably going to have to rely on the Protein Shakes and cream/broth soups...

I hate the texture of cottage cheese, but can eat it after I run it through the food processor or blender & add in something to it. I love yogurt, though, so I guess I'm OK with smooth.

Surgery planned for June. So more of a prep stage for me. Just trying to figure out some things ahead of time.

I am in the same place as you...surgery in Jun, trying to plan ahead. I'm planning to make both beef and chicken broth from scratch, strain it well, and freeze it in small portions. I figure I can drink it clear at first, then add milk or cream for the full liquid stage, then add pureed veggies for the puree stage. Homemade broth has way more Protein than the commercial brands & has much less salt...plus, it tastes much better.

      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.
