Greek Yogurt Recs?



Recommended Posts

I don't like fruity yogurt and I'm trying to eat Greek to get the hit of extra Protein. So far I've tried Fage 0% Plain and Chobani 0% vanilla. I had to add Splenda to both and it was still awful. It's actually pretty good with fresh fruit but I'm also trying to find one I like with nothing added.

Ideas?

I like Dannon Light & Fit Greek. It does have fruit on the bottom but it has the least sugars I have found (outside of getting plain and flavoring it) 80 cal, 9 carb and 12 Protein

I agree with Vicki on the Dannon Light and Fit cause the fruit is kinda pureed and you can whip the 2 together and it tastes great and I HATE YOGURT lol and being a diabetic means I have to watch my sugar intake and this brand of yogurt is highly recommended by my endo

I took me a couple months before I could begin to like Greek yogurt, it was just too thick for my taste. Now I eat black cherry Chobani (14 gr protein) mixed in my cottage cheese w/pineapple (11gr protein) and love it.

I used the plain chobani, and. Squirt a tiny bit of mio! Tried a flavored one the other day and it was so sweet I couldn't stomach it!

I agree, next to chobani, dannon Greek is the best. Way less calories than chobani. And taste great! I did just see a commercial for activia Greek yogurt. Not sure how that one is.

Fresh & easy vanilla, 120 cals, 0 fat, 15 carbs/12 sugar, 15 Protein.

I don't find it overly sweet and its not too carby.

Yoplait Greek with 2x the Protein is very good (except for the peach). Not overly fruity not overly Greek. Low in sugar, high in protein.

Dannon light and fit cherry or peach are my faves and have the lowest sugar with the best texture, IMO. Sometimes I blend 1/4 cup fage 0, 1/4 cup cottage cheese, a tbsp of SF cheesecake pudding mix, packet of Splenda and dash of vanilla for a cheesecake treat for about 80 cal and 8g Protein.< /p>

I like the Oikos Key Lime. It's blended so no chunks of fruit. Tastes and consistency of key lime pie. Also has a little over 5oz in a cup so I split it into 2 Snacks.< /p>

I eat chobani it had way less sugar than other brands. I did have to adjust to it though. :)

I'm still pre sleeve, but I do a lot of Greek yogurt. I get plain 0% fat Fage, or costco has their own as well. I make my own fruit purées and mix them in - often it's sweet enough without any additional sweetening, or with just a tiny amount of raw honey or agave Syrup if the fruit isn't really ripe enough. Alternatively, I get some of the no sugar added fruit preserves and stir in a spoonful is that.

That said, I do enjoy several of the Chobani flavors if I'm in a hurry and need something grab and go!

      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.
