Oikos - Café Latte, Key Lime and Banana cream are my favorites. I eat them frequently.
Yes they have sugar but I do not keep track of just my sugars so they fit! Thanks for reminding me I have one left at work to enjoy!0 -
For one thing make sure you check the sugar content it can be quite high also check fat content. Go for something low in fat calories and sugar and add some fruit if you need to sweeten it up. Yogart is good for you because it has live cultures and will help your digestion also the calcium. Hope that helped.:happy:
"Sugar" content is misleading. Even a plain yogurt with no flavor at all contains "Sugar" because yogurt is made from milk which contains naturally occurring sugar called lactose.
There is no such thing as a "good" or "bad" food. Food is inanimate. It has no morals, soul or consciousness. Food is food. There are more healthy choices and less healthy choices. Yogurt is a healthy choice but try to look at the ingredients for added sugar. If you're concerned about added sugar, get plain and add your own fruit, agave, honey or what have you.0 -
Food is food.
I eat yogurt because I like it. It really is that simple.
Oh, and I like full fat, creamy, dense German yogurt and quark. Relatively good source of proteins and mixes really well with muesli and protein powder and fruit (frozen or fresh).
Any site, magazine or person that tells you "yogurt makes you fat" needs a swift kick in the bidoubies.0 -
Hey, guess what I'm eating right now? Boy, I sure hope this yogurt doesn't make me fat!0

Have you ever had Brown Cow cream-top yogurts? OH my gosh. Their maple is incredible.0 -
Where do people even come up with thus stuff, dang.
Why in the world would eating some yogurt make you gain fat.
This. There seem to be endless foods that people think magically cause weight gain in any amount.
I really am curious what the supposed mechanism is that could cause this to happen.0 -
I make my own Greek Yogurt and its a great source of easy to eat protein and I know exactly what goes into it.0

to say only greek yogurt is good is very racist and bad0

Lowfat Greek plain yogurt is good for you as it is low in sugar and has protein. It's the crappy overly sugary "non-fat" fruit and flavored yogurts that make you fat. Look at the labels when you buy yogurt and do a comparison. Sugar is more deadly to a diet, too much as is not good either. 6 ounces of Whole Foods Lowfat Plain Greek Yogurt has 200 calories and 2 grams of sugar. I eat this with a small serving of fruit for fiber.0

Welp, looks like I'll have to reset my weight loss ticker. All that sugary, flavored Greek yogurt made me fat.
Except it didn't.0 -

Yoghurt is actually good for your body as it provides calcium your body needs as well as other essential nutrients. I think the problem with yoghurt comes when you overeat it. As long you have low fat and within your calories for the day, you wouldn't get fat0

I agree with most of your post, but low fat, high fat, full fat doesn't make a difference to weight loss. Calories matter for weight loss. Macros matter for health, body composition, and hunger.
And fat does a lot of good things for your body. It should be included in a balanced diet.0 -
What's a "smoothie diet"?
^^This
I was like wut?? Do you mean you drink ALL of your calories??? You don't chew any food? Are you blending up donuts and pizza?? I am confused?0 -

I would use fat free plain Greek yogurt. It is high in protein. I would also use fresh or NSA frozen fruit to add flavor.0
