Do you eat yogurt? Have you looked at the ingredients? Is it "Deb Approved?"


If your yogurt says, "sugar, high fructose corn syrup, evaporated cane juice, brown sugar, maple syrup, molasses, agave nectar, maltodextrin, splenda, sucrose or honey," I recommend that you try making  my "Deb Approved" version without any added sugar/chemicals. I know it is more work and is not as easy to take to work but if you make a big bowl of it, you can put it in little Tupperware containers and take them with you to work/gym, etc. It will last at least a whole week,  if not more,  in the refrigerator. The added sugars (please let me know if you find a flavored non-fat yogurt WITHOUT added sugar) is only going to make your body crave more sugar and it  could leave you more hungry than when you started eating it. I am not against a small amount of stevia (a root that is being used as a natural sweetner), at this point, but that could change as more research comes out about the product. I also recommend the non-fat due to the high amount of saturated fat in the 2% and full-fat yogurt. So, if you want to go with a very clean (no added sugar, chemicals, bad fats) yogurt, try my "Deb Approved"  yogurt parfait. Please let me know what you think!!!
