March Is National Nutrition Month

Show of hands, please! How many of you have made a New Year's resolution to start eating healthier? Maybe you'd like to shed a few pounds after spending too much time eating yummy (and fattening) Holiday goodies? Or maybe, if you're like me, you spent the past 2 years being pregnant and would like a little help getting rid of that stubborn belly pooch! And to those mamas who escaped the dreaded, after-baby belly-pooch, I am officially JEALOUS! Tell me your secret, and I will love you forever!

Anyway, March is National Nutrition Month, and one wonderful way you can celebrate a new, healthier family is to check out Yoplait yogurts! I personally LOVE Yoplait because they have such a wide variety of flavors, such as Key Lime Pie, Mountain Blueberry, and Strawberry Cheesecake! They also have a TON of other products, like Yoplait Whips, Fiber One, Greek Yogurts (great for cooking!) and even Yoplait Smoothies. And I'm sure all of you moms are familiar with Go-Gurt and Yoplait Kids! My kids LOVE yogurt, especially Go-Gurt. Did you know you can stick tubes of Go-Gurt into the freezer for a yummy frozen yogurt treat? Now THAT is a snack I can feel good about giving to my children.  Also, Yoplait yogurts are packed full of flavor! They are rich and fruity, and taste like a guilty pleasure, even though they are excellent sources of vitamins A and D, as well as calcium. Who says yogurt can't be mouth-wateringly delicious?
