Is the healthiest yogurt for weight loss actually plain Greek?
I have been researching everyday nutritional plans online because I want to lose a few pounds before my sister's wedding next month. I am now trying to find the healthiest yogurt for weight loss and add it to my morning routine.
I bought a tub of Fage Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt from the local Jewel Osco store last Monday. I have been using a digital kitchen scale to measure out exactly 170 grams of it every single morning. I mixed in a tablespoon of organic flax seeds and a tiny splash of unsweetened almond milk to make the texture smoother.
I ate this exact breakfast mixture every day for two weeks straight. However, I got so bloated, and my weight even fluctuated upward by two pounds, which left me feeling deeply discouraged and anxious. I am trying to figure out if the healthiest yogurt for weight loss is supposed to cause this kind of painful digestive response or if my stomach is just too sensitive. I even tried switching to a dairy free oat milk version, but it tasted like watery chalk and made my morning cramps worse.
I read a few dietetic blogs suggesting that concentrated protein might be too heavy for my digestion early in the morning. Has anyone else experienced this kind of severe bloating with Greek yogurt, or should I just try to find a completely different brand?
