I had surgery on 10/23 .. So I'm in full liquids with yogurt being in the category. Can I go out to get some froyo? It's all low fat or fat free...

I had froyo once in August (I had surgery the end of March) and it made me feel like crap. That is the only thing I have eaten that made me feel bad and if I had to say, I think it caused a "dumping" episode. I would think it would be okay as far as it being considered a full liquid but I'd be careful. Froyo was one of the foods on the "no-no" list my surgeon gave me early on. The only reason I tried it at all was because I had my gall bladder out and had no appetite. I figured froyo calories would give me something but I regretted it later. If you decide to try it I hope it is nicer to you than it was to me! Good luck!

I have a sweet frog down the road from me. This is just like a froyo. I use it as a weekend treat. I get a small with some fruit in it. no candies and things. I do the no sugar added flavors. But I just started doing this and I am 9 months out. Everyone is different about how they feel when they eat different things.

This may sound like a stupid question, but has anyone ever tried to freeze a regular yogurt? I imagine it ends up looking more like a popsicle than ice cream, but I wonder if it would be palatable?

Yes. I freeze mine until it is thick. It is palatable. Not the same, but palatable.

Oh sorry, surgery on 10/23? I don't recommend it yet. Sugar slows down healing.

I get the sugar free version and it is good. But it's a bit of a slider food for me so I limit how much I get.

      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.
