I am scheduled for surgery on Thursday, I am just wondering for those of you who have had surgery what kind of yogurt did you get? I am able to have some on the 3rd day I was going to get stuff on Wednesday just to be prepared.

Fage 0% greek Yogurt. I add my own fruit or mix ins. I also like to add it to my Protein Shakes to increase the Protein count.

The kinds I liked, without chunky stuff mixed in. When it's the only thing you can eat, you want it to be something you enjoy!

Like some others, I'm a big fan of the Dannon Light & Fit greek yogurt. HIgh Protein, low carb, no sugar.

I guess I should call my dietician, because I am a little confused because my list says light yogurt or Greek yogurt. It says do not add fruit so do they mean plain or no chunks. Confused???

My vote is also for Fage. I'm using the 2% as I need the extra calories for now.

It depends on your food program. I was allowed fruit. from stage one one. In stage 1 & 2 it had to be baby food consistency with no sugar added. However I also like it plain and add it to my Protein Drinks to increase my Protein intake.

Dannon fit and light greek has flavored yogurts that are smooth without chunks like key lime or banana cream. There are other brands of flavored yogurts as well. At the beginning you just want to stay away from anything with "bits" in it.

You can of course add flavorings like Tirani Syrup and sweeteners to plain yogurts if you prefer.

I was only allowed drinkable yogurt. Real yogurt was said to be too taxing on digestion.

      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.
