yogurt...how much
- Thread starter blonde8
- Start date
I only ever have one max (think I maybe had 2 a few times towards the start) and I don't have them every day...maybe 2 a week.
I personally (and believe me I'm no SW expert) would try and limit it to one a day simply due to the fact we should be aiming to fill up on superfree rather than free. Granted, if it's not slowing your losses down then I would say stick with it but if you notice your weight sticking at some point the I would cut down.

Yoghurts are a free food - therefore there is not a limit. Your limit is your appetite and your satisfaction level. As said above, you should try to snack on superfree but you've had one with breakfast and lunch and I guess these are part of your meal, so as long as you had your superfree with the meal then you are okay.

You do realise these yoghurts have a syn value.
There are lots of yoghurts that are free on the plan but not all fat free yoghurts are so be sure what you're eating is free and if not that you know the syn value.
Other than that I guess it's a case of if it works for you and it's not affecting your losses go for it

I generally have 3 a day too. .One mixed into my porridge in the morning, one after lunch and one poured over fruit for pud after dinner. . I keep a stock in my work fridge with little pots of pineapple, berries or melon so if the muchies come knocking I might have another one - dipping chuncks of fruit in.

I think if they help you stop snacking on 'synful' foods, keep at it. It's all about finding out how your body/mind works and fitting the plan to your needs. If having a few yoghurts is keeping you on track, why not! I am partial to the Weight Watchers dessert style yogurts, they are free and gorgeous! xx

Since being on ww one thing I miss is the free yoghurts! A mullerlight is 2 points so hadn't had one for ages until tonight and it seemed huge! Never used to realise that when doing sw though I did used to try and limit them to one a day(and have other smaller free yoghurts at the other times) when it got to the point when I had lost a lot of weight as I did think it made a difference to my losses
