Greek Yogurt ?

I am now ready to try it again.  I tried several brands but it was over a month ago now and when I was still having serious problems.  Everytime I tried it, I got sick.  I couldn't keep it down (nor much of anything else at that time). 

So, I'm starting to look into which one is best to use.  High cultures, High Protein etc.

I'm looking for recommendations.  There are so many different ones. 

Thanks!

I like Chobani and Oikos.

I usually get plain, and use Splenda and my own fruit (fresh, canned or frozen) to sweeten.

Vanilla has a lot of sugar in it, so I would avoid that flavor. 

Those are the only two flavors you can get in the quart containers.

If you want more variety, then you can get the single serve, but try to get the ones that have 2% instead of 0% on the package.

The 0% is fat free, the 2% is low fat.  You want to get the low fat.  The single serves have more sugar.

Missed the greek yogurt boat.  What is the difference between regular yogurt and greek yogurt?

here is what i found that might help.

While all yogurt provides numerous health benefits (including probiotics), the nutritional stats for Greek yogurt and regular yogurt do differ. Here's how the two stack up:

Protein - Greek yogurt has almost double the protein of regular yogurt. Eight ounces of Greek yogurt has about 20 grams of protein, whereas regular yogurt provides around 11-13 grams. Greek yogurt's high protein content makes it a favorite among people trying to manage their weight as it helps ward off hunger.

Carbohydrates - Greek yogurt has fewer carbohydrates than regular yogurt. This could be beneficial to diabetics, who have to watch their carbohydrate intake.  

Calcium - Regular yogurt has about three times the calcium of Greek yogurt. Both are still considered good sources of calcium, but women who don't get enough calcium from other foods may want to stick to regular yogurt for its bone-building benefits.

Sodium - Greek yogurt has half the sodium of regular yogurt.

Calories - Plain, nonfat versions of Greek and regular yogurt have a similar calorie count per serving, but added sugars can significantly increase the calories of either variety.

Texture - Greek yogurt is much thicker and creamier than regular yogurt because it's strained more. Greek yogurt can also be used in cooking as it does not curdle when heated like regular yogurt.

Cost - Unfortunately, you'll likely spend twice the money on Greek yogurt. This is largely due to escalating customer demand, as Greek yogurt's taste, texture, and great nutritional profile keep consumers coming back in droves. Greek yogurt also costs more because the extra straining requires much more milk, so it's a more concentrated source of protein.
    
Although most people snack on yogurt, don't underestimate its versatility. Both types of yogurt can be used as lower-calorie substitutes for fatty ingredients. Swap out eggs and oil in baked goods for Greek yogurt, or use either yogurt type in place of full-fat sour cream, heavy cream, mayonnaise, or cream cheese in recipes. Both types can also be used in place of other high-calorie ingredients in dips, sauces, salad dressings, smoothies, and desserts. 
 

Very informative, Brendalou. Thank you.

I have tried it a couple times pre op. Did not care for it. It always gives me the runs.

I have looked at all the single serving yogurt they all have more than 10g of sugar.except the yoplait greek 100 cal it has like 9g of sugar that is the lowest i could find at any store i went to. i add them to my shakes so i dont have to taste them as much. i am not a yogurt fan.

I'm strictly a Fage plan 2% Greek yogurt fan. I add my own blueberries and sweeten with Splenda. None of the other "Greek" yogurts I've tried come anywhere close to the flavor component of Fage. 

It's an acquired taste - that's for sure.  If you don't like it, look for a low carb - high protein option.  Kroger stores has Carbmasters, my personal favorite.  If you're luckier than that, you can find some Blue Bunny Carb Freedom yogurt.
