Review: Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt

Hey ladies! I thought it would be great to share a new product with you all that I am absolutely loving at the moment. Dannon Light & Fit has jumped on the greek yogurt train and man is it amazing! Dannon has a great variety of flavors to choose from like: blueberry, strawberry, cherry, and vanilla. 

Here's the nutritional label:

I love that it is only 80 calories compared to other major Greek yogurt brands like: Chobani that average in at about 130 calories. This one has less and its the exact same sized container can you say #winning! The protein count is another perk for me and guess what its not lumpy or too thick. It truly is smooth and tasty!

I first tried the blueberry flavor and thought it was delicious. It has fruit at the bottom and a rich taste.

Strawberry is my favorite flavor so far. It is so sweet, thick, and creamy! I love slicing a banana to add in it.

Vanilla tastes really good topped with granola and I even add it to my smoothies for a flavor boost!

I give Dannon Light & Fit Greek: A+

Glo's HRM review

Hey loves, its Glo coming to you with a review that’s long overdue. I have had my FABulous Heart rate monitor for a few months now and unfortunately I have yet to show and tell. When I first started looking for a heart rate monitor, I didn’t know exactly what specifications I needed nor what I wanted to track other than calories and my heart rate (duh). So after searching several different brands I finally decided on the Garmin FR70! I must say that other than my newest Nike trainers, it was the best investment I’ve made towards my health.

Details about my FR70 HRM

Cost: $129.99

I’m able to track my calories, time and of course my heart rate! With my FR70 I’m also able to track distance and speed with the addition of a Garmin foot pod. I also have the option of tracking the distance of my cycling workouts! Another great feature is the advanced training options and virtual training partner. But the best feature of all is the automatic syncing of my workouts straight to my computer via Garmin Connect.

Foot Pod Cost: $69.99

Snack Attack!

This post is dedicated to snacks, snacks, snacks! I know the most challenging part about converting your eating habits to a healthy lifestyle is the idea that you will never be able to eat somethings again. This my friends is absolutely false! There are alternatives out there that can help substitutions replace those old fatty favorites. Take a minute to think about swapping some of these treats instead, you can do this!

I thought this list was super informative and you would be surprised at how useful it really is when it comes to snacking options. 

Motivational Monday
