Susan here with an update on my progress with the #ActiviaChallenge and another giveaway for you. This post is sponsored but as always my opinions are my own.
Can I confess that this is such an easy “challenge” for me, it shouldn’t really even be called that.
You see, I LOVE yogurt and I’ve been eating Activia yogurt for years. But as part of this challenge, I agreed to try out a variety of Activia flavors and eat two per day for four weeks.
Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy!
I’m so pleased that I joined this “challenge” because it encouraged me to try some new flavors… and I’ve discovered my new favorite… Activia Greek!
Strawberry Activia Light Yogurt had always been what I bought, but now my new top pick is Raspberry Lemon Activia Greek. This week, I’ve also been enjoying Activia Fiber Yogurt.
There are so many flavors and varieties of Activia yogurt available, but I want to point out that they are different in Canada than in the US. I live in Canada, so you’ll notice that the products in my photos look different than what you’ll find in the US.
So in a couple weeks, I’ll have finished the #ActiviaChallenge, and I’ll have eaten Activia yogurt twice daily as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle for 4 weeks. I’ll let you know if I think it helped reduce the frequency of minor digestive issues* such as bloating, gas, rumbling, and discomfort.

5 Tips for Living a Healthy Lifestyle
Activia Brand Ambassador, Laila Ali, has shared her tips for living a healthy lifestyle.
- Start the Day off Right: Whenever I have a busy day scheduled, I always make sure I have an Activia Yogurt in my fridge. These delicious, creamy low-fat yogurts are rich in flavor and help me easily stay on track with the Activia Challenge!
- Work Out: Fit it in when you can. You don’t have to do a two-hour workout at the gym – I rarely have time for that anymore. I like to take the kids out for a bike ride, or go for a run while they ride their scooters along with me. Doing little workouts throughout the day will help to improve your mood all day long.
- Pack In The Protein: After I complete a workout I always grab Activia Greek! It is a great post work out treat. Plus, with seven delicious flavors to choose from I get to switch it up regularly.
- Laugh: I surround myself with people that make me feel happy and make me laugh. Staying positive and enjoying my surroundings always keeps me in a good mood.
- Make Wise Food Choices: You are what you eat! I spend one day a week cutting up fruits & veggies and making healthy dishes that my family can eat throughout the week.
