How do you "doctor" your cottage cheese?



Recommended Posts

For me its FF cottage cheese mixed with natural no-sugar applesauce. Its easy to cary when i'm running around and the mini packs are just right.Actually, I end up not finishing it, but I get all I need/want

Can I just clarify - you never can tell with the differences.

To me, cottage cheese, it comes in a tub in the dairy section and its all curdy, little lumps of stuff, doesnt taste cheesy?

Coz what you're all talking about sounds good, lol and to me its just one of those, I dont hate it but wont go out of my way to eat it type foods.

I am talking about the same thing - white curdy lumps in a small bit of liquid, not sharp cheesy tasting?

1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese

1 tsp grape jelly

40-45 seconds in the magic bullet

Feels as if I am eating desert, yummy

I used to hate cottage cheese until my daughter told me to mix it with yogurt. I really like that now. There is a brand here that comes already mixed with pineapple that's pretty good too.

When I was newly banded I made a lot of cottage cheese whips.

The base is always the same:

1/3c cottage cheese

1 3.5oz can of chicken

I put it in the food processor, and then add flavor: Greek seasoning, lemon pepper, or BBQ Sauce. My absolute favorite is the buffalo chicken whip. I put hot sauce in it and then add a few bleu cheese crumbles on top when it's all whipped.

The whips are sooooo good, and the cottage cheese "texture" isn't there.

I never did sweet mix-ins, though some of those suggestions sound kind of tasty.

One of the recipes I got from the Body For Life plan was to mix cottage cheese and yogurt together. I love it! I eat it that way and eating it right now as I type.....I mix it with the Carb Control strawberries & cream yogurt. yum yum.

      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.
