Can I eat yogurt as part of my meal with ham? Or is considered liquid? I sure hope so because I just did it and am hoping I will not get sick since I have to go to work now. Lol! Wish I had thought to ask 1st.

You should be just fine.  The yogurt is pretty thick so it shouldn't move too quickly through your system.

Thank-you for responding! I lived through it. I probably worried it right through. Lol!

Your question reminds me of the Dr. Seuss book called "Green Eggs and Ham."  I think the book would say yogurt doesn't go well with ham.  I consider the yogurt I purchase a good source of fairly dense protein; it is Walmart's Whole Milk Greek Yogurt, plain flavor.  One cup has 20 grams of protein, 9 grams of sugar, and 190 calories.  This yogurt lists only one ingredient which is cultured milk--no filler ingredients!  I am jealous of WLSers that make their own yogurt but not jealous enough to copy them.

It's really so easy.  Let me know if you ever want to try.  I make it once a week now -- and my son refuses anything but the "good stuff" -- and he used to love Fage.

I quit believing the word "easy" a few years back when a Public TV program called "This Old House" said laying laminate flooring down was an easy weekend project.  It turned out to be a one-thousand-swearword job nearly ending in divorce.  Bedsides, making yogurt requires an important ingredient I'm missing----AMBITION.

I really believe your marriage would survive making yogurt. The hardest part is taking the temperature of the heated milk. How dud the floor come out?

 that is so funny! I didn't even think of that!

      I probably will not be making my own soon, either. Sound wonderful but if I try adding one more thing to my cart it will topple over. Lol! I will look for the Walmart brand when I get in there next time. Ty for the tip!

So to the OP -- I do think you should be fine.  I am not sure how far out you are -- 

I think you are wise to consider sliders/solids together though.

That said, I do try not to eat sliders (anything you'd measure in a measuring cup) with solid protein -- because it can be a slippery slope of "liquids" with meals.  For example, yogurt is liquid enough that if I ate a 1/2 cup of it, I wouldn't feel the need to wait 30 minutes to have a sip of water.  

The point of not drinking with meals is to avoid stretching the stoma (where your pyloric valve used to be) -- as well as taking advantage of the satiety of solids for as long as possible.

If I am going to mix sliders with dense protein, I usually make it point to eat the slider first.  Just like drinking fluids -- it's okay to drink up to shortly before eating -- but I wait 30 to 45 minutes after eating to resume.  I avoid soups -- but if I do have it, I will do the broth first and then eat the solids.  If I were eating yogurt and ham (something I can't imagine!!  LOL) -- I would eat the yogurt first and then the ham.

That's just how I handle it.  Your mileage may vary.

I know it sounds unappetizing right now but it was really good. I used some of the vanilla along with sf chocolate syrup and it was amazing! But after I did it I thought it was a liquid so I freaked a little bit. I think just by itself next time without the ham. Lol! Thank-you for the suggestions. I will put my yogurt ist before my ham if I get that crazy again. Lol! I am 5 months out.
