The Danon yogurt only lists 1 active culture, though it may have more it's not listing. To get the benifits of the lactose eating bacterias, try to find one that has at least 3 live bacterias. I found a brand called Mountain High at Albertsons which is really good. Some people just can't eat yogurt too, but try getting a more lively one before giving up totaly
I eat 1/2 cup yogurt every day (except for the enxt week as I'm moving and not shopping for food till after). If anything I think my weight loss has sped up isntead of stalled. I was mixing it in things when I had an organic nonfat kind because the taste was so acidic. Since switching to the Mountain High which has more fat I've found I don't need to add anything, it tastes great. Maybe if I hadn't had the nastier stuff ebfore it wouldn't taste as good *g*
I've also found that it doesn't irritate my lactose intolerence. It is about the only dairy besides a small amount of cream cheese occasionaly. I eat it at breakfast as that is my lowest carb meal, so my carbs are more spaced through out the day and I have more chance of burning them. I've also found it makes a good substatution in recipes that call for cream.
