Cottage cheese... yuck!



Recommended Posts

Why not just eat yogurt instead?

I agree...cottage cheese is icky! And, I also agree...why not eat greek yogurt instead!

This is just my reasoning but cottage cheese has more Protein and less carbs than even greek yogurt. I like the yogurt better but I'll take the cottage cheese for the higher Protein and lower carbs any day :)

I buy these cottage cheese combo packs. I love them! I'm 15 lbs from goal. strawberry, peach, blue berry, and pineapple flavors

I personally ate yogurt before the sleeve and now I never ever do. I've become obsessed with counting my carb intake and yogurt has a lot.

Cottage cheese and purple grapes (my fav) or with peaches is super yummy!

Try the 4% milk fat large curd cottage cheese. I agree the 1-2% is nasty. I have tried all brands and like Dean's large curd cottage cheese the best. It is more like real cheese. Before my surgery I only at Cottage cheese with pineapple. But now I like it just plain. I actually measure out my 1/2 cup portion, then eat it right from the measuring cup (why dirty a bowl)?

I had to laugh, I've eaten probably 80 % of my food from a 1/2 cup measure ever since my surgery! (over 5 months ago)

I add low sugar fruit cocktail, so much better.

On the savory side, I like finely diced green onions, celery and sometimes carrots -- also chopped fresh tomatoes with Kosher salt and pepper (also good with a seasoned salt and/or pepper)

I mix 1/2 cup of Daisy (tastes better than other brands) cottage cheese with 1-2 tablespoons of reduced sugar Craisins and love it. I usually have it for at least 1 if not 2 meals per day.

Cottage cheese with regular salsa or mango salsa very good. I sometimes add cinnamon, nutmeg and a packet of stevia.

I eat the cottage cheese that comes with pineapple and then mix my black cherry Greek yogurts in it. I hated cottage cheese prior to this

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
