I love my cottage cheese with chives, but I think that is a 4% milkfat? You could just add dried chives and puree? I also always need some salt and pepper.

I put my cottage cheese in the blender with a little cream cheese, Greek yogurt and artificial sweetener. I mix it with strawberries. Can't stand cottage by itself either!

I have found that I like cottage cheese with a splenda packet and some fresh strawberries. I do put unsweetened canned peaches or unsweetened pineapple chunks in it too (also with some splenda). I sometimes add sugar free Jello to it, straight from the packet, and a little goes a LONG way. Obviously I like mine on the sweeter side but I have also had people tell me to put salt and pepper on it and it is good that way. I haven't tried it with s/p but could be. I always use the lowfat made with 2% milk.

I like my cottage cheese sweet (with unsweetened fruit) I also like mix a few tablespoons of it into yougurt. The craziest way I eat it is to mix about 2-3 Tablespoons of Salsa into about 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. Looks awful, tastes good.

I love, love, love cottage cheese with diced tomatoes. Canned are fine. That's if you can handle the acid. Just a few and a little of the juice really flavors the cottage cheese...and I add salt, pepper and a little garlic powder. Yum, yum.

      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.
