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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
