as a meal with hemp flakes = -1 WLM

Greek yogurts are very good! However, they are not a -3 by themselves.  The regular Greek Plain Yogurts are actually 0 to -1 at best because while they are a categoyr 1 lean protein, they are predigested (requiring little digestive energy) and offer no improvement on metabolism, but they DO keep you in EFB.  This is why chicken with broccoli is a -3 for example (body really has to work to digest it). 

Triple Zero yogurt is better on WLM because it is loaded with protein and fiber and therefore a -2 by itself.  The body is working harder with this one. 

Keeping calories of yogurt under 200 and adding 1 tbls of hemp flakes would improve the yogurts on the WLM, making them even better for weight loss.
