Added plant extracts helps Yoplait Heart Healthy Yogurt lower LDL (bad cholesterol). That's great, but keep in mind this stuff has about 80 calories more than Yoplait Light!

Best Bets!
In a world with a gazillion kinds of yogurts, these are the best of the best...
Yoplait Light Yogurt - We LOVE this entire line of fat free, low cal, delicious-tasting yogurt! All flavors have about 100 calories and taste GREAT!
Dannon Light 'n Fit - Dannon scores high marks with their line of yummy fat free 100 calorie yogurt. We especially love the blueberry & key lime flavors!
Dannon Nonfat Light 'n Fit Creamy - This yogurt definitely lives up to its name. It's both light and creamy! And the nutritionals are as low as the regular Light 'n Fit!
Dannon Light 'n Fit Smoothies - If you're gonna grab a supermarket yogurt smoothie, this one's for you. It's one of the only ones that's low in calories & fat free!
Size Matters...
Size matters when it comes to yogurt cartons. For example, a carton of Stonyfield Farms Moo-La-LaStrawberry Cheesecake Yogurt with 150 calories doesn't seem bad at all. That is, until you realize the container is just 4 oz.--half the size of Breyer's Light Strawberry Banana Yogurt -- and contains 30 more calories than its larger counterpart. Yogurts typically come in 4, 6 or 8 oz. containers. Be sure to keep size in mind when deciding which yogurt to buy.
Hungry Girl Tips
-Top your fave light yogurt with a handful of your favorite cereal, or a spoonful of your fave low cal preserves (We love Nature's Hollow).
-Make calcium-rich yogurt a dietary staple. Studies show that dieters who include dairy in their eating plan lose more weight than those who don't.
-Don't worry about the sugar in light 90-120 calorie yogurts. They're naturally occuring sugars that come from lactose.
-Swap mayo with plain nonfat yogurt in creamy salads and spreads.
