For those of you who don't know, I work at Yogurtland It's one of those self-serve fro yo places and it's actually an ok job.
So if you're ever in the downtown fort worth area stop by, grab some fro yo, and say hi.
One of my favorite question I get at work is "How do you stay skinny when you work at a place like this??" I generally chuckle to myself and say something like, "Well, miracles do happen." or "Ahh come on it's yogurt! It's healthy!" in reality I have this whole yogurt thing down to where I can take full advantage of my free bowl of yogurt that I get every time I work and still be healthy. Here's how I do it:
-Grab a bowl
-Go to the toppings station
-Put in a layer of strawberries
-Layer that will blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, pineapple, and bananas
-Put a few more strawberries on top
-Layer on that about 2 scoops of the organic pumpkin seed granola
-Follow that will 1ish scoop of Mochi
-Then squirt 1-2 tablespoons of Sweetened Condensed Milk over the whole thing
Grab a spoon and, well, that plus a hard boiled egg and granola bar is my lunch at work. You might be starring at your screen confused asking, "But what about the yogurt? What about the brownie bights, and crumbled up cookies, and chocolate chips, and gummy bears???" Well I did say I would tell you how I stay healthy, right? There ya go! The yogurt isn't too bad it's only about 30 cal. per ounce, but the fruit is only about 10 cal. per ounce. So trading out yogurt for fruit you save 20 cal. per ounce. By completely avoiding the brownie bights, cookie dough bites, and cheesecake bites you're avoiding an average of 100 cal. per ounce. With the sweetened condensed milk you get something to make it extra yummy as compared the various chocolate sauces(You'll save about 20 cal. per ounce just by switching from chocolate sause to condensed milk). The Mochi gives it some texture and extra sweetness, and the granola gives it some crunch (Plus it's really good for you.) And of course on the days that I really want a little bit of yogurt I grab a sample cup and get a small taste.
