Full fat or low fat Greek yogurt

Oh my word this is turning into a right debate. The joys of blog posting . The main reason I started this post was to get advice, share people's experiences with choosing full fat or low fat Greek yogurt for strength training benefits I .e weight training, Les mills body pump ect . Those who regularly do this need a high protein diet to help maintain and repair muscles used. the full fat /,low fat ? Was to help with losing body fat as fat uses less calories when exercising Whereas muscle increases calorie burn and I want to get rid of the extra 5% ive gained my BMI is 29 which is high (classed as overweight ) Not to turn it into a silly debate.
At the end of the day we all have our own opinions, I was just airing mine ,, and it's all got turned around to something different,, and yes I do feel that I'm being made to look a fool and don't know what I'm talking about by some of the comments, made here. my last post was to help answer certain individuals ?s I could post hundreds and hundreds of posts like the last one,, if you don't want to believe it then these posts will not change your opinion.
So on that note, enjoy the rest of your night/day and all the best with achieving your goals using MFP0 -

All the protein you're eating, protein Buiding yr muscles and muscle burn more calories than fat , nice one,, I have the disadvantage of having more body fat right now, with being a woman , age and lapsing the past 6 months or so ,, back on track now0 -

Protein doesn't build your muscles.

2 points:
1. I don't know why you took my reply personally, it was not directed towards you but the incorrect information of the article. If I interpreted your reply incorrectly, I apologize.
2. Sorry that you've lapsed and if you cold, I would help. I know when I fell of the wagon years ago, I analyzed and learned why and slowly progressed and acquired knowledge.
3. Ok, one more. Back to the topic - dont be so defensive. I think what the majority is trying to tell you that it's the caloric deficit or surplus that matters for losing or gaining fat - not food demonizing. Fats are not bad, neither are carbs, or protein - eat at moderate caloric deficit to give you enough food so you dont crave and dont binge.
I sincerely wish you well0 -

Negative. The only truly annoying thing here is the spreading of blatant lies in regards to food and you making your own personal beliefs about food sound like medical fact. I'm simply challenging that because there are people who lurk on this forum and will take your misinformation and run with it. What you perceive to be "bad carbs" are not the cause of heart disease and diabetes, and protein does not build muscle (lifting heavy while eating at a slight surplus will do that though).-1

OP as others have said, eat whatever yogurt you like that fits in your calories and macros for the day. May also want to be a little less defensive and presumptuous that your strength training is so unique and therefore makes your goals and needs different than so many of the people posting here today....0

Oh my word Prizepoggle you are very challenging, good on ya I'm challenging too ,, but with my exercise not verbally or by just posting post after post like a stuck record ,just to be an annoyance , that's the vibe I'm getting from you ,, I think I'm right I trust my instinct it never lets me down And cause of all the what I believe to be BS posts I keep getting from you when ever I post on here .
let me explain AGAN I'm only giving my opinion, and also what has been explained by professional people, THE LONG POST was not made by me but a reputable source and no they won't, people believe what they want to believe. I can't make them do it I wouldn't want to, I'm not wanting to misinform anyone,, if anyone reading the posts feel I am doing , it's just not the case at all. If anyone has any concers about posts , they can go and reasearch it or ask their doctor/professional.
And the protein comment not gonna go into that one with you,, no point cause I find you just annoying and just wanting to point score or /Battle of wills scenario ,, carry on if you like I'm not and I mean it now answering any more BS posts from you. That my choice like you have your choice to carry on posting
I think by now some might not be so polite and told you to Sling your hook in not such a nice way.

No no your ok wasn't taking it personal , was being jolly with you,, I'm just sick of a certain individual on here posting and posting I find that person being personal / and targeting me. / a battle of wills things going on so thank you that person you've achieved yr challenge for the day as the saying goes you may have won the battle ,, but not the war Lol He/ she will be reading every post on here to find something else to post ,, but I just find it silly , annoying , tedious and boring .
On a positive note
Thanks muchly greatly appreciated, enjoy the rest of your day. Enjoy your workout A ❤️❤️❤️ Pumping at the gym ( pardon the pun lol) gives you such a buzz doesn't it,, and end up looking and feeling damn good.

I like 0% Greek yogurt...appreciate the marginally higher protein levels for fewer calories and as I eat it daily that's how I fit it in
There are no good or bad foods / Carbs
You will find it difficult to build muscle in a defecit, unless you are one of the exceptional outliers like a noob, severely overweight or teen boy
Protein doesn't build muscle ...heavy, progressive lifting programme at maintenance / above does
Protein is important for muscle / cell repair. Muscles don't tone, they get bigger or smaller...it's a misappropriation of tonus. Body fat levels reveal or hide muscle giving that "toned" look
And from what I can see @PrizePopple has given you appropriate and accurate information and advice throughout this thread and you seem to be reacting badly, although I can't see why0 -
Full fat, 10%, because taste and texture and satiety.0
-
5% because I love that flavour and that's all it comes in.
Someone sure is flag happy in here. Perhaps @kgeyser could pop in here and explain how they are supposed to be used? (Hint: It's not a dislike, or disagree button)
Oh, and when you're quoting, you can simply type below the /quote] tag.0 -
I don't know why everyone always assumes that it's a specific person* flagging in any given thread, but here are the guidelines about flags: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10007789/flagged-content-reported-posts-warning-points
*Often the individuals flagging in a thread are not even participating in the discussion, so posts accusing or insinuating that it's a certain individual are often wrong. It's also a violation of the community guidelines to express concerns about guideline violations on the forums (specifically guideline 11b), so please just report any flagging concerns to the mods using the Report feature.0 -

Wasn't being personal,,, it's a proven fact that certain foods in excess do just that, Diabetes 2 heart heart attacks ect ect
You might want to educate yourself about T2Dm. "Bad" carbs or certain foods do NOT give it to you. People develop T2Dm because (in order of commonality):- genetics
- obesity (from eating too many calories, not carbs)
- age (the pancreas gets old, just like the rest of the body)
- long term use of certain medications (especially antidepressants and statins)
- there is also strong correlation, not yet proven causation, to environmental factors
The most common way of managing it is diet and exercise, with medication or even insulin required for some. Diet does NOT mean only eating certain carbs, it means keeping the total carbs consumed to whatever amount will work to keep the hemoglobin a1c in the normal range. Most recommendations are anywhere between 100-180 g a day, spread out over the whole day.-1 -

I'm also aiming for muscle I've been eating Greek God's Greek yogurt. Vanilla Honey. It's the best I've tasted. I put some granola and berries and it's Heaven! I just bought another kind chobani but I don't care for it too much. They didn't have my favorite so I settled. But I will get some more Greek god's when I get to the store.0

Vanilla's my fav flavour too, the low fat one tasteless, so I'm back on the full fat one now, Vanillas my favourite too, tried it with honey but way to sickly on the tastebuds. Will keep on with the full fat from now on, a little of what you fancy is better than none at all. Everything in moderation !0

Thanks all, for your posts whether being negavitive
Whether being negative or...??? You kind of left us hanging there with that incomplete sentence.
Trying to correct misinformation about nutrition and fitness being spread is not being negative.
Intentionally mistyping someone's user name, calling them annoying, and condescendingly referring to people as "Hun", well, that may be a different story.
