Hi - I Usually Have Oatmeal And Fruit Or 0%
Question: Hi - I usually have oatmeal and fruit or 0% fat yogurt and fruit for breakfast. The last two days I had 5% fat Greek Yogurt and Fruit - usually I have a snack about 10AM and am very hungry by lunch but with the 5% I didn't have a snack and only some fruit for lunch as I was not that hungry.
1) Do you think that it was the 5% yogurt?
2) Do you think that it is better to eat that and then not be as hungry later so to help lose weight?
3) Is that extra Dairy fat bad for me?
4) Would it be better to add a bit of olive oil to my oat meal instead.
I am 5ft 10 in - 185 lbs - very fit - but should probably lose 5 or 10 lbs. I bike / swim / kayak for about 1.5 - 2.5 hrs daily.
thanks XXXXXXX

Brief Answer:
You can have 5% Yogurt.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
1) The 5% yogurt can cause a decreased appetite in the afternoon. It is better to consume more calories in the morning rather than in the afternoon.
2) Eating 5% yogurt is a better option and will help you lose weight.
3) Some extra dairy fat is not bad at all. No need to worry.
4). Adding a bit of olive oil is another option and can be done if you are not taking 5% fat yogurt.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
