Yogurt recommendations please



Recommended Posts

2 weeks out and Got cleared for yogurt, pudding and apple sauce. I tried the Greek triple zero yesterday and apparently that was way too think because after 2 tiny bites I felt like it was just stuck. What other yogurts that might be a thinner consistency would you recommend?

Maybe you could add a little Fluid, like a little of a Protein Shake to the yogurt and thin it out?

I've tasted a lot of them and have been having trouble finding one I can eat. I finally found Dannon's Light & Fit Greek yogurt. They have several flavors, it's not the best but it's worth giving it a try. I didn't like the apple pie one, not good at all. Hope this helps, good luck. Oh, and they have them in the whipped mousse consistency too.

I eat the Light and Fit yogurt as well. I like them pretty well. I like that they are pretty low carb (most are just 9 g of carb unless they have chocolate on top...then they are 11g of carb).

Oikos triple zero Greek yogurt.

This is also what my NUT said was best for protein/sugar, etc for after surgery. I haven't tried it yet because I'm not a huge fan of yogurt, but I plan on getting some for my pureed phase.

Adding a little Protein shake to thin it out sounds like a good idea!

Only problem I have with the Oikos triple zero Greek yogurt is that is does have a few more grams of Protein that the Light and Fit Greek yogurt, but the sugar content is higher and so are the carbs. For those extra 2-3 grams of protein I'd rather do much lower carb. Just me though. I'm used to looking at carbs rather than anything else because I'm diabetic. You may differ because of not having other health issues.

I love adding yogurt to my Protein Shakes. it thins the yogurt down, and makes the shake more creamy.

Most yogurt was too think for me as well. I finally settled on Yoplait Greek Whips - 100 calories and around 9 grams of Protein. They are so light and fluffy!

I like the Dannon Light and Fit Greek yogurts! Also, cottage cheese is really good with mashed peaches and a little sugar free peach syrup! I'm not a big cottage cheese girl but, I am able to eat it that way and benefit from it's high Protein. If you get premade Protein Shakes, I found blending them with Ice made them easier to digest the first few weeks! But the Dannon Greek L&F yogurts are yummy! No big chunks of fruit and great flavors and low sugars for a yogurt! :)

Fage Greek yogurt plain, vanilla Protein powder, powdered Peanut Butter and Water to thin is what worked for me. I can't do most artificial sweetners

      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.

      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.
