Onken Biopot yoghurt is really nice and low in carbs at 3.8g per 100g serving, for sweetness throw some berries in.

Go for the ones with high fat and put the flavour in yourself.

Alpro, with your own fruit in.
I have a bag of frozen berries, I just microwave a few and chuck then in.
Fage is allegedly good as well, either 0% or high fat. No sugar in either.

I used to eat Mulller Light, the fruit stuff is nice, and not full of sugar, but obviously there are some carbs from the fruit.

Mullerlight is about 12g per pot, which is fairly low if you include the fruit in that.

I can't say they're ok for you.
The carbs are ok for me, and/but (depending on your view) they're low fat.

You can only try, and check you bs after.

If the choice is between your fridge and your bg I would most certainly choose bg. So high fat yoghurt and add the berries in myself to control sugars intake.

There's about 2 or 3g of carbs more in a Muller Light than a pot of fage classic and a handful of blueberries.
You'd have to eat a lot of pots in the day to make a great impact.

I eat full fat yoghurt and add berries on special occasions. I get the 500 gram organic Greek 10%fat or if I can find them, organic Russian 17 % fat,both plain yoghurt and add berries if I feel I need them, but mostly I add nuts.
