Also, does anybody else have a problem staying on plan with ur family memebers come home from work? When my mom comes home from work.. I splurg on food.. and then i feel grossed out and guilty.. I cant seem to stop!!! Anybody else have this problem.. Please let know if u have any tips!! Im never going to lose weight if i dont over come this mt..
  • I am on the color coded plan (Red1) and was told that the Activia Light was 1/2 dairy.
    This was based on the dairy serving being 1 cup and it is 1/2 cup.

    From reading old posts on yogurt I think there is a difference between whatever COD you go to,some are told it is a starch because of the fiber content and some are told it is a dairy.

    Hope this helps a little.

  • Why is that? Why do you have to count it like this?

    I personally eat only gelatine-free yogurts (I am vegetarian) but I am very curious...
  • I would say that it would be a dairy serving (or 1/2 a dairy because of the serving size.)

    I would not say that it would be a starch, because you are not "keeping" the starches that are in it-the fiber. They pass through the system.
  • I've always been told to count yogurt as a dairy...never a starch.
  • Yup, me too. Yogurt=dairy.
  • thanks guy!! been a big help!
