Thank you. Do you buy this one? I can’t find one that says it’s full fat.

Fage Total 5% Fat Greek​

Hi I’m on a diet as well as being diabetic cause the fage yogurt is 5% is it best to get the zero one only trouble I’m having is the 0% one has 3 g sugar

That's why we don't recommend it, so kudos to you for being so on the ball. Low-fat/zero fat has to have starch added or it's just runny slop. The Greek yoghurt I buy if I can is from Aldi at 10% fat and no added anything. I sometimes buy M&S full fat yoghurt but there isn't a shop near me so only if I happen to be near one, and I can't remember the % fat content. I'm sure others can add to this. Lidl at 5% fat is okay but I prefer a higher fat content.

Thank you. That’s to one I’ve been buying but wasn’t sure the fat content was high enough. I’m trying to stop my weight dropping any further.

I’m afraid I don’t have any real tips for weight loss. I found it just happened, even tho it wasn’t my aim, when I went low carb. Following advice on here I upped my fat intake and that stopped the loss. The diet I eat now seems to maintain my weight pretty well.

From my experience I’d say experiment a little with your fat intake a little if your on a keto/low carb diet, but I’m sure others could advise better than I can.
