Pre-op yogurt choice...is this possible?!

[Chunky_Dunk 61]

Ok, guys...I am scheduled for surgery November 19th and I am supposed to start my yogurt and Water diet soon. I work right next door to Orange Leaf. For those of you that don't know it is a frozen yogurt place. Their yogurt is out of this world and I could totally survive a month on that if I had to lol! I know that I can't have fruit chunks in my pre-op yogurt, but I found no mention of frozen yogurt. Anyone know if that is ok??? I am hoping for a yes! LoL Please let me know! I just prefer the taste of the frozen yogurt as it is almost like ice cream lol Please don't get me wrong...I like some regular yogurt as well. Now I am just rambling lol look forward to some great answers! God bless and good night!

I don't think you can get away with that. You would need to compare the nutrition facts.

Frozen Yogurt tends to be very sugary or carb heavy. From my experience, greek yogurt was what I was told to get for my preop. Very Protein heavy.

Now, I love Greek Yogurt. It's delicious to me. I wouldn't do Froyo, get Dannon Lite n Fit Greek Yogurt. So good!

It has a lot of sugar in it usually. But you can freeze Greek yogurt in those Popsicle molds that seemed to work for me.. And everyone else in my family since they usually ate them before I could.. I used sugar free Jello pudding too..

I asked my coordinator Trish and she said that froyo would be fine. I just hate to do it and when i get there she was wrong. But according to her frozen yogurt is fine.

Wow...I would not take advice from a coordinator

Especially one that gives that kind of advice!

Frozen yogurt kinda defeats the purpose of the whole diet...which is to shrink your liver. Sugar will prevent that from happening. And an oversized liver during surgery can lead to .....at least your surgery getting cancelled and at most....death.

So....not being a medical professional but knowing what I know about this surgery....I'd say please get a second opinion before embarking on your frozen yogurt diet.

See I am having my surgery in Mexico so maybe she misunderstood what I meant by frozen yogurt? I am glad I asked you guys...I think I will just stick with what I know works. Thanks soooo much for all of the help guys!!!
