Ode to greek yogurt.



Recommended Posts

I must confess that when we first met I had a preformed opinion about you....

And those thoughts I had? After I tasted, yes they were true!

Sour, off putting, there is something wrong here! tastes so bad it must be good for you!

We had barely meet but I knew we must go our separate ways...

I'm sorry to say this, but you were easy to replace. A love affair with shakes will do that, you know.

I must confess as the time wore on I gave you little thought quite honestly.

By chance (and a bit of desperation) we met again.

But I still wasn't willing to take you as you are.. I hid you under layers of sweetness. But then something funny started happening! I began to look forward to our daily meeting.. And day by day I found that I wanted more of your tart sour ways! The things that I used to hide you? They were not what I craved! It was you! You all along!

So my drops of sweetness became less and less without me even realizing it.

I am sorry that I overlooked you. And I am even more sorry that I felt that I needed to change you.. You are good for me, and I must say,

I look forward to our meetings each and everyday!

:D

Do you have a favorite brand and flavor?

Fage 2% plain.

I guess that's what I'm saying... is that I sweetened it with stevia and frozen blueberries but as the weeks go on I'm finding that I want to sweeten it less and less... It's natural flavor is something I'm enjoying now...

I guess I could of said it just like this and it would of been shorter and more to the point eh?

:P

I get to try the Greek on Monday. Cannot wait! Good to know about sweetening it with Stevia. Will definitely try that if it's too sour. I also would love to hear the recipe for the frozen Protein Bites.< /p>

      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.
