Lessons I learned from yogurt

For years now my go-to night time snack has been a bowl of Lite-N-Fit Yogurt (vanilla) with granola mixed in.

A few months ago, I ditched it because it had "too many calories" and I felt as though I could surely eat something smaller around 8:00pm.

I switched to yogurt cups, which was fine for a while. There are a lot of great flavors. But after awhile, one cup wasn't enough. I needed two cups. Then that wasn't enough - I added in ultra processed 100 calorie packs.

Before you know it - my lighter alternative isn't lighter at all. It's probably ending up being much worse for me.

This certainly isn't the first time I made something worse by trying to make it better.

It also probably won't be the last. Sometimes it pays sticking with what's reliable.
