New Food Find! Especially for my full liquid friends...



Recommended Posts

I am not a big yogurt fan, but it's obviously become a staple in my life this last month. I am allowed smooth, no lump, greek yogurt as part of my full liquid phase so I've obviously been stuck with vanilla 75% of the time. I've been eating Dannon Fit and Light, Greek, Double Protein at 80 calories and 12 grams of Protein.< /p>

The other day, while stocking up at Walmart, I found the new Dannon Blends line. It includes Orange Cream, Key Lime, Coconut vanilla, and banana Cream. I have had all of them but the Orange and they are delicious. I am not a huge coconut fan (I'm a liker not a lover) and it's subtle but good. This line isn't overly sweet and you can't really taste the Greek in it.

What a great choice! SO much better than another chocolate Protein shake. Blurp.

LOL! I've never been a fan of Greek Yogurt (I hear it's an acquired taste), but I'm loving my Yoplait Light in yummy flavors - Boston Cream Pie is the best! Of course, I'm still supplementing with Protein Shakes, but that little extra taste is yum!

Dannon Light and Fit doesn't have the same Greek taste as the others, so I would suggest buying one and giving it a try. Even my 15 year old who hates Greek yogurt can eat this one without complaining. It's worth the protein!

I've since tried Chobani's flavored Greek yogurts and LOVE them! I don't even want to eat regular yogurt anymore because they can't compare with the Protein content of Greek!

How much protein and sugar is in the Dannon Blends? I love the Light and Fit Greek, but would like more charity.

One of my favorite things to do is to freeze it.

I too got worried about the sugar content in the flavored Greeks yogurts. Chobani was my go to the first 2-3 months after surgery. Now I get the unflavored chobani and add a teaspoon of Torani sugar free flavored Syrup. You can get peach, raspberry, vanilla... Etc. so good! Very little sugar and the 6 oz plain Greek yogurt has 17 grams of protein!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
