Saturday Morning!

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Petal - I've heard that when taking antibiotics you should eat plenty of yogurt to avoid icky side effects like that. I really need to thank MK again for turning me on to greek yogurt - it's the only stuff I can get through.

No poop for you!

I forgot to ask if you liked it Poke. And now I guess I know.

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

I like yogurt. I haven't tried the Greek yogurt. Why is it better for me? Or is it?

mkrupar · May 2012

More protein Petal. At least that's what I'm told.

I get kidney stones, but I've never had a UTI thank god. Stones are the pits though.

CFM102012 · May 2012

I tried greek yogurt. I didn't like it. It was mostly the texture/consistancy, though even with fruit in it I wasn't fond of the flavor. Granted I can only do regular yogurt a couple days in a row every few months.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Yeah MK, I really do like it. It's been my breakfast many many times. I tried all the different brands and Chobani is by far the best IMO.

mkrupar · May 2012

That's the one I eat Poke. I've had the Fage before and thought it was tasty.

<div>That's funny because regular yogurt has a bad texture for me, but the greek stuff was thicker so I was able to handle it.</div>

pokepoke27 · May 2012

I tried the Fage with the fruit in the separate compartment. It was good, but I felt like I was paying more money for less yogurt compared to the Chobani

CFM102012 · May 2012

I'm a meat and potatoes girl so I'm not stressed about getting enough protein.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Rachers - a mani/pedi would totally make your mouth feel better.

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

Sounds like a good plan to me Rachers. I need to get one badly. I will have to try the Greek yogurt.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

The Oikos tasted good, but to me the texture felt closer to "normal" yougurt.

CFM102012 · May 2012

I love that my kitty is affectionate. He's currently in my lap, purring and licking my chin. Only bad thing is I need to go for my run. I'm training for a 5K in july.

J&K10910 · May 2012

More protein, and also a lot of the big Greek brands (Fage, Chobani) are less processed and have more natural and fewer chemical ingredients than the popular regular brands (Yoplait, etc).

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Ugh. So now my little sister is stomping around in a bad mood because I told her I'm going to pass on her ROTC Awards Banquet tonight. It's in the city so about an hour away. She doesn't seem to understand the fact that I've got a UTI means I'm peeing like crazy. I do not want to be stuck in a car for an hour, then getting up every 20 mins all night in front of everyone. It sucks though because I have heard they serve good food. Oh well, I might talk myself into getting a pizza.

CFM - I always have problems making my animals move when they're being cuddly.

PetalPockets2012 · May 2012

Thanks J&K. I'm trying to eat healthier so that is good info.

J&K10910 · May 2012

Poke, did you get antibiotics today? You might actually be feeling a little better by tonight.

abbalish · May 2012

I love Fage! It's my favorite, by far....and unfortunately, is also usually the most expensive. But the 2% cherry Fage is one of my favorite foods. I find that I get sick of Chobani after eating a couple of them, but I never get sick of Fage. I do like the Chobani Champions, though, even though they're supposed to be for kids - they're only 100 calories and are the perfect size for a snack.

CFM102012 · May 2012

Why do furbabies always choose to be snuggley 5 mins before you're gonna get up and do something

Kitty, you have until 1:30. After that I absolutely have to get up and go for my run. That way I can get cleaned up and go to work at 4.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

J - Yeah, I got them today. I've already taken the first one. I hope I am feeling better by tonight, and I still have time to decide if I can go or not. But like I said this is my first time dealing with it so I have no idea how well I'll react to the medication.

Abbalish - The Champions are actually the first Chobani yogurts I tried. It was the vanilla chocolate chunk ones. They're freaking amazing.

Thanks Rachers!

J&K10910 · May 2012

The Honeynana Champions are the bomb.com. I love to add a little extra honey and some chocolate chips for dessert, or a tbsp of PB for breakfast.

angelstar975 · May 2012

Eagles, I am doing a little better today, thanks for asking. Sorry I'm late on that, I walked away for a bit.

angelstar975 · May 2012

I may be posting in a dead thread, I can't tell what times the last posts were from my phone, but I think Greek yogurt also has less sugar than regular yogurt, but I could be wrong. I've only tried chobani, oikos looks too thick in the commercial.

pokepoke27 · May 2012

Haha Eagles - she'll get over it. They reserve seats for everyone, and each student gets no more than two seats. She was stressing because I "wasted" a seat. I think she's inviting a friend to take my place, so she's probably glad I'm not going.

J - the thought of PB in yogurt seems very strange to me - but very very good.

J&K10910 · May 2012

Angel, it definitely has less added sugar.

Poke, I only add PB to the honeynana and the vanilla chocolate chunk. It's delicious, I swear! And makes it more filling.

<div>It's not as thick as they make it look. The one I had was very runny actually. </div>

pokepoke27 · May 2012

I've got some plain ole vanilla Chobani - I'm thinking about adding a little PB to it for later. Being sick is a perfect excuse to cheat on my diet

Edited for spelling

J&K10910 · May 2012

Dude, how is PB a diet cheat? PB is so good for you, unless you get the super duper processed stuff. Protein, healthy fats, very little added sugar. Yum!

wrigleyville · May 2012

I can't stand Chobani; it's too acidic for me. I love Oikos, though. I think it's because, as Poke said, the texture/taste is more like "regular" yogurt. I'm looking forward to experimenting with Greek yogurt in dips and such.

Some guy on the L is reading "50 Shades of Grey". I thought that was a chick book (and, yes, I realize I'm stereotyping). I'm kind of fascinated that a guy is reading it. FI keeps telling me to stop staring, but I can't. I really want to wander over and ask him what he thinks of it, but then I'd look like a creeper. I haven't read it yet because I think it's pretty hard to top Anne Rice's "Sleeping Beauty" series.

Saturday Morning!
