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!

        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
