I had wondered about the Greek yogurt, noticed the cheaper one's didn't taste as good, etc. Now I'll stick to the brand I bought in the first place, and not the fancy little "cutesy" brands. Also enjoyed the Health magazine treats mentioned, it's the thing that has kept me at maintanence weight for almost a year, Skinny Cow fudgesicle each evening, and some fruit too. - 2/21/2011   8:43:10 PM

I recently discovered quinoa and I like it a lot. I can make a salad with it and bring it to work for lunch all week. Also, I make my own salad dressing now and it is so much tastier and cheaper and I know what is in it. Love Greek yogurt, no GS cookies in my house. - 2/21/2011   11:49:47 AM

I liked the blog about the yogurt because I have been confused about which is the best Greek yogurt, nutrition-wise to buy. - 2/21/2011   11:19:15 AM

They were all informative, but I liked "How to cheat on your diet......". It taught me that if you plan or allow small cheats, you won't feel deprived and will stick to healthy eating. - 2/21/2011   9:51:20 AM

Great article, loaded with interesting info. Thanks. - 2/21/2011   6:04:10 AM

Loved the Greek yogurt article. I've been blogging about the different brands I've been trying. Now I know what to look for besides just taste. - 2/20/2011   11:15:04 PM

Fake Greek Yogurt: look at the ingredients list: milk, fruit, sugar, and live cultures should be there; gelatin, corn starch, and milk protein concentrate should not. Another way to figure out the difference: check that your yogurt contains between 13 and 18 grams of protein per carton.
I make my own low fat greek yogurt, thanks to MIL gift of a Easi yo yogurt maker, so simple! - 2/20/2011   6:48:56 PM

The whole wheat peanut butter banana bread sounded pretty good to me. If it is good my family will actually eat. Just the idea of peanut butter is a draw for them. - 2/20/2011   3:42:32 PM

So many of them were interesting: Weight-Loss Transformations, Don't be faked by Greek Yogurt, How to Cheat on your diet, Whole wheat peanut butter banana bread, Craving Girl Scout Cookies..., Simple Smoothies, and Espresso Scones! - 2/20/2011   3:16:24 PM

The articles on "Greek yogurt, Simple Smoothies and Muscle sores" were very informative. Its always good when you learn something new in a day.

Too bad about the fake "Greek" yogurts....I just got back from grocery shopping where I bought several Dannon "Greek" yogurts (because they were less expensive than some of the other brands. According to the Shape article, the kind I bought is "fake" because it contains modified corn starch. Oh well, next week I'll know better! - 2/20/2011   12:40:32 PM

People are still often confused when I mention quinoa, so I loved Emily's blog on it. I e-mailed it to a bunch of my family! - 2/20/2011   11:40:23 AM

I loved the article from Woman's Day Weight Loss Transformations: Best Friends Edition. Motivating, and inspiring! - 2/20/2011   11:36:31 AM

I liked the blog on "Don't Be Fooled by Fake Greek Yogurt." I have been eating greek yogurt for a long time because it adds an excellent source of protein to my daily diet. I had no idea that some brands use these additives so I will be sure to keep an eye out for this should I not be able to buy my current greek yogurt of choice. - 2/20/2011   10:42:52 AM

The real Greek yogurt article for me was fantastic along with the Girl scout cookies. I eat Greek yogurt everyday and find you can find it on sale quite often. When it is on sale, I buy 14 to 20 because the shelf life for real Greek yogurt is quite long, especially organic. Also, I dodged the Girl Scout dilema this year and bought cookies that my husband and son love, but I happen to be allergic to peanuts. They can have their cookie in front of me and not feel guilty! They try to eat their ice cream in the kitchen, but when I need something Greek yogurt with raspberries is my dessert. - 2/20/2011   10:20:04 AM

Given that it's Girl Scout cookie selling season, my eyes went straight to that! I bought the cookies...and decided to take advantage of the donation option. When I get a craving, I'll refer to this article instead. Also, I really liked the smoothie article -- I love them (!) and am always looking to add variety. - 2/20/2011   10:15:29 AM

"Don't Be Fooled By Fake Greek Yogurt" was very informative. Last week I bought my 1st carton of Greek Yogurt and after checking ingredients found it was not fake. However, because of the price and the fact that I could not tell a lot of difference, I will probably not buy any more. - 2/20/2011   9:28:17 AM
