I need help this might be silly but I’m cleared to have yogurt and I read a lot of people here don’t eat strawberries because of the little seeds getting stuck in the staples causing a leak my yogurt has strawberries in it and I’m kinda freaking out here

If yogurt with strawberries freak you out. Consider eating a yogurt without strawberries?

I've had both yogurt and cottage cheese with strawberries and had no problems. I think you'll be fine.

One of my staples is Icelandic Plain Yogurt from Trader Joe's. It has 22 grams of Protein per container and not much sugar. I add canned fruits, like peaches mashed up or applesauce. Before surgery I was adding blueberries & strawberries. My diet doesn't allow fresh fruits or veggies for the first month post op. I guess it's had to digest without it being canned or cooked.

It's not silly, at least not in my opinion. I think if it were fresh strawberries it might be difficult to digest. But since strawberry yogurt doesn't usually have fresh strawberries it seems fine. At least it didn't cause me any issues.

Having this surgery causes alot of anxiety for alot of us. Me being one of them. So I wasn't asking in an offensive way. But I wanted to help you.. if that was the case. We just want to do everything right. So for me alot of 'silly stuff' made me anxious. But it's important we are aware so we don't get carried away. But valid question

      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.
