just be sure to use the "dip" mix, I can't vouch for the Salad Dressing seasoning.

Good call out, I have one of each, so I'll definitely use the dip mix

I am not a yogurt person!
I have bought some fat free Chobani & FAGE brands and can’t seem to eat more than a spoonful, taste is too bitter. So I am curious as to how you all incorporate your Greek yogurt into your meals. I am 6 weeks post up and starting to incorporate new textures.
any suggestions.
I love the dannon light and fit Greek yogurt. It doesn't have as much of a bite to it. Or the chobani Greek drinkable but that has a bit too much sugar.

I would try to he Torani flavorings, add the Peanut Butter stuff they talk about on here, I think it's called PB2 or even stirring a little Crystal Light,powder in. Add it Roto something b else already on your diet, one girl says she even mixed it with salsa, don't know if I would go that far, but taste buds are. different. I used to stir,peanut butter into strawberry ice cream before I started on this reformulation of my body. Oh and also peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches.😛🌈

I wasn't a Greek yogurt person either until I decided to have the surgery and I had to figure out the whole Protein thing. I loved triple zero, cannot tolerate it anymore something about the sweetener. Loved the one Creek talked about, then that kind made me sick too.

So I make my own now, the tartness can be adjusted and you can keep it "runnier" if you like but you're sacrificing the protein per ounce. So incredibly easy if anyone is interested, I make mine in my instapot. I'm not a fan of plain yogurt so I make a fruit "smash" and add that. I just like I know what is in mine, no fillers, no Gelatin. All I need is milk, half a cup of my previous batch of yogurt, my instapot and my nutmilk bags to strain out the whey. I guess I just like making stuff lol!

I switched to Greek yogurt when I decided to have surgery. It took me some time to find one I like. I use Triple Zero and Great Value fat free plain. I make a fruit dip with it and a veggie dip. I like to use the veggie dip in my shredded chicken salad instead of light mayo. It adds more Protein in. I have not had my surgery yet and have had issues getting my daily protein goal in.

      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.
