Hi all,
I must be using an old copy of the book, as it doesn't mention half the stuff the updated list does!

Is 0% fat Greek yoghurt (brand name Total) okay on P1? I see there's now limits on dairy.

dairy is fine in phase 1 in fact 2 cups a day of low fat milk or plain yogurt is recommended....


in phase 2 you can have 2-3 cups. i have milk in my oatmeal but i love my afternoon cup of greek yogurt in phase 1 i had it with sf syrup and nuts now i have it with sf syrup and fruit....

Fantastic. I just can't face 2 weeks of eggs! No honey til P2 is a pain, love it with Greek yoghurt. But then again, that's how I got to this weight!

well a couple of things

1. make sure the yogurt is low fat either 2% or nonfat
2. i would not have honey even in p2 and if you do i'd severely limit it
3. yogurt for breakfast does not replace eggs... only another protein can replace eggs.

Hmm, yoghurt & bacon anyone.......

Cottage cheese is a good protein. You can make a nice shake with it, skim milk and some sf syrup or good old vanilla and Splenda. I even throw in egg white to up the protein.

I've just printed out a couple of the pancake recipes from the recipe section, going to give them a go. Not a big fan of ricotta, so hopefuly it'll work! I'm not bored yet, but I want to make sure I don't get that way.
