Too Much Fiber
According to my food diary I am already over my fiber for the day. I'm thinking I'm ok because I don't think you can have too much fiber in your diet can you? Isn't there a way to change the number? What should I set it to?

Greek Yogurt, yay or nay
So I'm trying my first taste of greek yougurt right now, it's strawberry flavored from Yoplait and I have to say, I'm not really liking it.
