Day 34 - Benefits of Yogurt

One serving of yogurt has a significant source of potassium, phosphorous, riboflavin, Iodine, zinc and vitamin B5 along with good-for-you bacteria, says the article in this month’s Fitness Magazine. Greek yogurt seems to have other benefits including protein.

For more information on the benefits of yogurt, take a look at the following sites:
I didn't do too badly today. I have had better days and although it looks like my calorie count will be okay for the day I am too tired to exercise. My pedometer shows 10,600 steps so I seem to have been on my feet and walking more than I have realized. For dinner I chopped up some veggies and put them in a zip lock bag along with some seasonings and olive oil, shook it up to coat the veggies and am cooking them in the toaster oven. I'll add a little salsa and sour cream and eat along with some grilled chicken. I'm trying not to snack but it's 7:30 and I'm ready to eat!
I had vowed not to eat in front of the television but there's a replay of the USA v. Algeria World Cup game. It doesn't influence my enjoyment much if I know the outcome. In Titanic I rooted for the passengers until the end and hoped that it wouldn't sink. This time I know it's a good outcome and the U.S. won. Fortunately, there wasn't a referee in this game who thought he would just arbitrarily disallow goals.
