Day1 Yoplait 2-wk tune up

On June 11th, I have a wedding to attend.  This is a wedding of an old friend who I haven't seen in over a year!  I HAVE TO LOOK GOOD!  Perfect time to try out one of these fad diets  =)

The Yoplait 2 Week Tune Up:
Eat a cup of low or nonfat yogurt with a serving of grain and a serving of fruit for breakfast and lunch.  Then eat a sensible, lean protein dinner.  For snacks, you can eat vegetables.  In 2 weeks, you will lose up to 5 pounds!

There is no magic about eating 2 cups of yogurt a day.  This is all about portion control.  The convenient thing about this diet is that:
1.  It's convenient to buy yogurt that's already in the correct size. Plus it's cheaper than a shake diet.
2.  There is almost NO cooking except for dinner.
3.  The website (Yoplait Two Week Tune UP) has a nice 14 day meal planner for you with easy to follow recipes for each of your meals.

By the way, Yoplait is a popular brand of yogurt here in America.  And this "two week tune up" is a way for them to market their product.  Still, the meal planner they provide is VERY convenient.  When I was trying to figure out what "grain" to eat for my next 14 days... this meal planner gave me lots of ideas.
