would you eat one of these for lunch?

Hi - sorry for the 2 posts in quick succession;

I'm not a big fan of greek yougurt on its own, but found these in my local supermarket;

dinner.

Does it (the sugars, carbs, etc) look ok to you? Would you have one?

I personally wouldn't. To me the Protein is too low, carbs & sugar are too high. I was told aim for 2 digit or higher protein while making sure that the sugar is under 15 and carb single digit.

I like the walmart greek myself that has about 12g of protein and 80 -90 calories.

I just checked it out. My only observation is that it is quite high in sugar, but apart from that it looks fine - probably not enough Protein if you are not eating breakfast!

I definitely think you should be eating breakfast dear!

Tell my gut that :P

You need to break (the) fast first thing in the morning (eat breakfast). It's been proven that people who eat breakfast do fair better in the long run with losing weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It's a good habit to be in. (Your tummy will learn :) )

I don't eat yogurt very often, but hubby and I like the Dannon Lite & Fit Greek and the Walmart Lite & Fit Greek. Also, the 4 oz. Breakstone cottage cheese cups are the perfect size and quite filling for me. A half cup of anything is about my typical, comfortable serving size.

This week I've been sampling different flavors of the Quest Protein Bars as a Meal Replacement at breakfast. They have been very filling and satisfying.

I have a hard time with breakfast as well.. but I force it even if its sipping on my protien until its all gone around 10 am. As for yogurts, I like Siggi's its high in Protein and very little sugar. :P

I wouldn't have this one. Regardless of the carbs being too high the Protein is just way too low.

I agree that you need to eat breakfast.

How in the world are you getting in all your protein without breakfast and low protein choices?

I would not eat it since it is too low in Proteins and likely too high in sugars for my program. My program does not count carbs they count sugars and there are certain types of sugars I cannot have if they are in the top 5 ingredients and if the sugars are more than 2 grams per my serving size. Without the ingredients I can't 100% tell if I can' have it based on the sugars. But I wouldn't bother due to the low Protein

There are a number of yogurts with higher protein and lower carbs/sugars per serving.
