It’s so funny how early after weight loss surgery everything sounds sweet, too sweet, and so so so sweet and awful.

But then.

Something happens the further a patient gets out and it’s not unheard of that one of my Gastric Sleeve, Bypass, or DS patients has a sweet tooth again (or even for the first time).

It can be so hard to keep desserts and sweet treats low carb, low sugar and/or low fat.

It’s important that they DO stay low in these things because 1) you don’t want get sick and 2) sugar is addictive. Opening the door once can really throw you off your game. This is a free video that talks about “the truth about carbs” and explains more.

I know Greek Yogurt doesn’t always hit the spot, but when you can get creative flavoring something like Greek yogurt, it’s a huge bonus to hit the sweet mark but move along so you don’t fall off the path.

I love this recipe because it’s so easy to keep the ingredients on hand. You could have this for a breakfast or a nighttime snack and all will be well! This is another video on How Best to Fit Greek Yogurt into Your WLS Diet this video is free and not just for members.

  1. This sounds great, but can I use other fruits besides strawberries please. ??????

  2. Understood! I would look for a Greek Yogurt that has as much protein as carbohydrate. Often Oikos Pro wins that but I also really like Chobani less sugar when I can find it!
