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.

        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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
