I have a visceral negative reaction to cottage cheese because of the tanginess. Does anyone know of a specific type that is not so tangy? Have tried Breakstones even with the fruit and I can't get it down.

First - love your avatar!

I haven't really detected tanginess.

Have you tried it with spices or perhaps blended up with something else? When I was on purée I blended it with some chicken. It wasn't spectacular, but it was edible. :-)

I also blended it with refried Beans and salsa (it was ok).

I prefer Penn Maid. However it may be a local brand as I am in Pennsylvania. It is the only brand that I like the low fat. (I don't do no fat)

Then why eat it? Find something you like instead.

I would find something else to eat. Cottage cheese is spoiled milk in my book and I can't stand it. I don't eat that or tuna which is cat food.

Can you eat Dannon Light & Fit Greek yogurt instead? I really like the cherry flavored one.

I am not a cottage cheese fan either.

There's plenty of other protein-rich fish in the sea.

Metaphorically speaking. ;)

Cottage cheese has excellent Protein and I eat it every day. My favorite brand is Kemps. I am not sure if that is local but I don't detect any tanginess.

I agree. Either you like it or you don't. If you don't, no one is requiring you to eat it. That said, the higher fat version does taste a bit different than the lower fat version.

I have negative emotional attachments to cottage cheese from an abusive mother putting me on extreme diets at 4yrs old. I've tried to break that, but just not successful. You don't have to have cottage cheese to be successful at any stage in the process of WLS so if the taste is that bad for you, just eat something else. I hear sometimes taste buds change post surgery and things that bothered us before, we actually might like post surgery, so I think I'd just table it altogether til after surgery if I were you. Well, I'm not you, but that's what I've decided on.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
