Yogurt Question



Recommended Posts

Hey everybody! Has anyone found a yogurt that has less than 5g of sugar? I love Greek yogurt but it's just too much sugar (22g). I'm not dumping, but just want to follow the rules. I'm stuck in a rut with my losing and figured being super strict may do the trick.

Thanks in advance for the answers!

I use Fage yogurt which was recommended by my doctor, I am not sure what the sugar is in Fage but since he recommended it that is what I use.

I never could find any. I would use plain greek yogurt (which did have that low sugar content) and then add a bit of frozen fruit and a teaspoon of sugar free jam and that would do the trick. I used maybe 2 to 3 oz of yogurt.

I haven't been brave enough to try Greek yogurt since surgery and I love it but did try the diabetic friendly low carb dannon. Don't try it! It's not good at all!

I haven't found a Greek yogurt that I like. I tried several of the Chobani. They all taste spoiled and tart.

I love dannon light and fit Greek yogurt. The key is to watch out for refined sugar, corn Syrup, etc. natural sugars are fine and should not cause dumping. Dannon light and fit is the only brand of yogurt that is sweetened that my nut recommended.

I'll have to try that one. I am very afraid of dumping.

My Dr and nutritionist are both hard core and have lots of rules with sugar etc but they recommend the Greek yogurt.....I eat it everyday (split it into 2 snacks)....also add a scoop of Protein Powder to it and mix up the day before saying it....can't even tell its there and you end up getting like 34 -36 g of Protein from those 2 Snacks.< /p>

Humm, I'm on a 15gm rule. It's working well for me. A few protien bars, yogurts are slightly higher 22gm and I divide thoes into two Snacks or share with a family member, dogs eat yogurt who knew? I've been on liquids for 4 days because solids are not working right now. All because of chicken.... I never herd of the 5 gm rule.

      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
