It’s been just a little over two weeks since I decided to start the Activia 14 Day Challenge.
I started the challenge on September 2nd and I suppose the challenge officially ended on September 16th, but to tell you the truth I have continued to eat Activia yogurt since the official end of the challenge. It tastes good and yogurt is good for you, so I might as well continue to make it part of my daily diet.
When I started the challenge I was feeling pretty good. Adding the yogurt to my diet as part of my breakfast and occasionally as a midday snack didn’t seem to make any major difference in the way I felt.
If anything, I think I felt a little fuller because I was adding the yogurt to my breakfast – eating it with my cereal or oatmeal and it seemed to make me feel fuller longer. If I happened to have a yogurt in the afternoon when I wanted a snack (say 3 p.m. or 4 p.m.) it would tide me over until dinner.
As far as flavors go, I started out with two 8 packs of Fat free Raspberry and Fat Free Strawberry and Rhubarb. Now I’m eating Fat Free Vanilla and Cereals and I’m enjoying this flavor too. So far they’re all tasty.
Now if you’ve been reading some of my other posts this week you know that I’ve been feeling a little off this past week, but I’m 99% sure that this is directly related that to a medication that I’m taking and unrelated to the challenge.
So … Did any of my regular readers or visitors take the Activia 14 Challenge This month? If you did, how did it go? If you haven’t taken the challenge, have you tried Activia Yogurt? If you have, what’s your favorite flavor so far?
I also added a yogurt for my normal breakfast. Of course like you too, I felt full. To feel more comfortable, instead of yogurt and bread with jam I turned to smoothie. Now my breakfast is super healthy and tasty:) Highly recommended!
My wife purchased some Activia and is complaining about the amount of gas that it has given her.
I’ve never tried Activia but I have eaten yogurt, usually of the all natural variety, every day of my life for the last 4 years. I eat it because I like it and I get the side benefit that I have never had bloating or regularity problems. It’s the “active” yogurt cultures, not the brand that does the job.
