I like the Friendship 1% cottage cheese. 1/2 cup is 90 calories and is great with blueberries or strawberries or alone.

Besides the brand, you will have a choice of large or small curd. Try each and see which you like. I prefer large curd because it has more liquid in it. Lots of people prefer small curd though. I can't do fat free cottage cheese but low fat is fine to me.

You can put sweet things in it like fruit, or you can add salt and pepper, or mix it with chopped tomatoes or put green onion in it. Try several ways to see if you have a preference. I definitely prefer savory but lots of people prefer sweet!

So The Small Curd IS Less liquid? I don't think I wud like it watery, so u think I shud try the small? I love green onions!! I thought this cheese was sweet?! So I can mix it wit that?!

Small curd has less liquid yep.

It's not sweet. It's a little salty and not a strong flavor. So you can add fruit or savories or have it plain. You can get a small tub of it and try a few different ways. It is really high protein!

the brand doesn't really matter, try skim or low fat. I add splenda and ground cinnamon to mine, sometimes strawberry jelly.

I like cottage cheese with salsa, I will do that when my acid reflux is better controlled.

I just had fat free cottage cheese with a teaspoon of seedless raspberry jam and it was amazing.

I love the fat free small curd as a base for Protein Shake. Add ice cubes and two tablespoons of cottage cheese; some fruit; Protein powder; and some milk and you've got yourself a nice protein shake :)

      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.
