Don't like Greek Yogurt?

 I mixed mine w/ regular yogurt and it's ok! Well it wasn't "regular" yogurt it was light n fit...purple container....forget the brand but hope this helps someone :)

That is what I did until I found a Greek yogurt that I liked all by itself.

 Which one did you find that you liked?

I like the Oikos vanilla (NOT the plain!) and several of the Chobani ones (I add just a touch of Stevia to them).  My favorite one is the cinnamon apple (I go through 6 of these every week), but I also like the pineapple and strawberry, and get the peach, blood orange or black cherry occasionally for variety.

 theres not to much sugar in the flavored ones for you? my nut said that i should be able to eat anything with less than 20grams of carbs (sugar included) but that sound like a lot to me.....

Keep in mind that much of the sugar in yogurt is the natural sugar from the milk; only some of it is added sugar or sugar from the fruit.  As with anything that you have any concern about the sugar level of, try just a small amount at first.

 I seen some of those, but the sugar content was high...should be able to handle that? I'm so confused..

That's good to hear!  I like the Chobani yogurt with fruit but was afraid it had way too many carbs.

I hated greek yogurt until I started adding Sugar Free Pudding mix in...My fave is white chocolate...sounds funny but is yummy! Eat it often in Fage greek yogurt...keep trying! I almost gave up on this (I also do not eat ones with fruit due to high sugars).

Good luck!

The sugar in yogurt is from the natural milk sugar (lactose).  When your nutritionists says "nothing with more than ___ g of sugar" they usually mean ADDED sugar (table sugar/surcorse) not natural sugar from milk/dairy, fruit and veggies.

When you read the food labels, don't just look at the stats, look at the ingredients as well.  That will tell you if the sugar is added (it will list sugar, high fructose corn syrup, cane sugar or some other sugar source) or if the sugar is natural. 

Some of this is stuff you will have to pick up as go you along...but you will...no worries.
