Woohoo greek yogurt!



Recommended Posts

Two words Trader Joes. Omg, the one with honey (0% fat) added is superb! Yes, it's higher in carbs and sugar than plain, but so so good. I ate 2.5 ozs and feel happy that it agreed with my belly. Does anyone add their own touch of honey or other stuff? Trying so hard to keep everything low so plain will prolly be the one I go to most.

The nonfat Fage is almost pure Protein, I make a smoothie with frozen fruits and chia seed. The Trader Joe's is higher in sugar and lower in protein. Been eating Fage since week 1, 4 weeks post op yesterday.

The plain Fage with sugar free pudding (cheesecake) added is wonderful, just a few teaspoons. I bet the Torani sugar free Syrup would work too.

I also like cottage cheese with sugar free raspberry jam too!

I wish I could like Greek yogurt. I think I've tried most brands, most flavors (cept honey Trader Joes!). I keep trying it but the first bite is like eating straight sour cream. I do put them in my smoothies, cuz I can't feel the texture or the strong flavor.

When I was a young adult, I attempted to eat oatmeal over and over again, trying to like it. Never did. Till I was in Army basic training. I was so hungry at Breakfast it was the only thing left to eat so I got to liking it.

Wish I could do that with Greek yogurt...maybe I'll try the honey one from TJ's. Gotta go there for coffee this week anyway!

I love Trader Joe's nonfat yogurt. I add a scoop of Protein powder, Chia seeds, and fresh blueberries. Yum! (I'm pre-op)

Fage is my favorite too! I add my own fruit like blackberries. I am 15 months out and at goal so can be a little more generous with adding stuff.

if I am at work I combine a Fage non fat with an 80 calorie Dannon Greek peach or strawberry banana. Tons of Protein and very low sugar

Or if home I will use Fage and some vanilla Dannon 80 cal Greek and a ripe banana and couple drops of vanilla extract plus ice for a banana cream smoothie! Yum

Or.... Just Fage plus any fruit around the house you get the idea. Great to make a smoothie when fruit is getting a little too ripe.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
