I don't do WW but I like the yobaby brand plain (not Greek) yogurt. They also have a lot for calcium per ounce than Greek yogurt. They are designed for kids but I love them!

smoothies aren't zero points


me again, I apologize, that sounded really rude! That wasn't the question, and you likely don't care. I meant to offer advice to OP that smoothies are not 0 points. Carry on.


That makes no sense, all those foods are 0 points.


This has been a program rule for a long time, and is now built into the online tools (although some people decide to ignore it). Smoothie ingredients aren't calorie-free, and their research has shown that when people blend foods into a drinkable form, they tend to consume a much greater volume than they would if they were eating the solid foods. Some members were consuming hundreds more calories per day via smoothies than the program intended people to consume from zero-point foods, so they created the rule that if you turned solid food into a beverage, you had to count the points. A reasonably-sized smoothie (e.g., 8 oz.) still isn't going to cost you a lot of points, and it keeps people from drinking 20 oz smoothies and then wondering why the scale doesn't move.


It’s the volume but also that the act of blending destroys the benefits of actual fruit in digestion - the ruffage - that was slower to digest, and slower to spike your insulin. A blended smoothie (or plain juice) takes away those benefits - hence why juice has points and its fruit counterpart doesn’t.

Mashed banana with 2 Tbsp of PB2. It’s 1 point and really fiiling. If I eat it for breakfast, it keeps me full for much longer than my usual oatmeal

If you are adding honey and nuts, what is the point? A point for a tsp. of honey, a couple points of nuts...that is too many points.

I add frozen fruit (TJs mixed berries) and sprinkle a tiny bit of granola on top.

Try regular plain yogurt instead of Greek yogurt. The regular has a nice tangy taste, which the Greek does not. The Greek yogurt seems blah and tasteless next to the regular.

I add cinnamon and blueberries.

Second the idea of cucumbers but with salt for a savory, Indian-inspired taste.

I add fruit to it. I hate the taste but I think it gets better depending on the brand name. Fage is horrible. And I think the more you eat it the more you can tolerate it. My sister in law suggested I add some cinnamon, which I'm going to try in the morning and she suggested adding pomegranate seeds which are sweeter. I've added blueberries and also done oranges that were really juicy and it helped. Mangoes and peaches did nothing for me.

Have you tried shredded/diced cucumbers with dried mint? Greek and middle eastern people eat it this way. Also could try mixing in cooked spinach with salt and pepper. Another middle eastern way of eating yogurt.
