March is National Nutrition Month. This is great time to take a closer look at your current eating habits and see how you could make more nutritious choices. Are you eating enough veggies? Do you need to cut back on your salt intake? Do you drink enough water? There's a lot to think about when it comes to nutrition, but the most important rule to follow is: Eat a Balanced Diet. That is pretty vague, but basically you can enjoy most foods in moderation.
Yogurt can certainly be a part of your balanced diet, and there are lots of brands to choose from depending on your budget and taste (I <3 Chobani). Yoplait is one brand that offers a very large selection of flavors and options. It is also fairly economical, so I enjoy incorporating it into my diet alongside other yogurts. I recently received some information from Yoplait through MyBlogSpark that I'd like to share with you. If you're interested, read on....
1. Start spring off right with Yoplait Light’s Two Week Tune Up Plan – Replace breakfast and lunch with a cup of your favorite flavor of Yoplait Light, a whole grain and a piece of fruit and you could lose 5 pounds in two weeks. Go to Yoplait.com for full diet details.

Growing up...my mom only ate yoplait yogurt. It is still one of her favorites, and I always enjoy the banana creme pie flavor. Even though I have a heavy hear tonight, I find joy in reading your words. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your creativity with me. I hope you have a blessed end to your week!
