Yes you need fibre along with other nutrients/food groups, but it's not necessary for losing weight. Eating less calories than you burn is the only necessity for losing weight.

Hello all, I have been eating Activa yogurt with cereal over my fresh fruit. Love it. Feels like a treat every day. Someone told me the other day that activa is the worst yogurt for us. Does anyone know if that is true. As of Monday I have lost 30 lbs and went down half in my pain meds for my joints.. Feeling really good I am no good with google so that is why I am asking.
thanks Pam

I eat my own home made Cobb salad every day and it is working, with my home made TV dinners. lots of greens and fruit.

Ya, fiber helps keep me full and thus makes it easier for me to stick to a calorie deficit. I swapped out the Sugar and Sodium nutrients for Fiber and Iron (I'm anemic) and try to hit my fiber goals daily.

Here are some high fiber foods:

@PamLivin This will work better if you use the Search function to find an existing discussion of Activia.

If you love wraps, the Ole Xtreme Wellness, high-fiber, low-carb tortilla wraps are the best! They have only 50 calories, 1.5 fat, 16 carbs, a whopping ELEVEN fiber, and 4 protein.

The person that told her Activia was bad must have been a fat free greek yogurt eater
16 grams of sugar for 4 oz vs only 1 gram of sugar for greek
there are some sugar haters out there

I don't buy cereal and other Fiber One products just for the fiber because they don't fill me up at all for the calories.

I get my fiber from beans, veggies, and apples, typically (and whole grains).
