Not as Healthy as you think!
Yogurt with Fruit on the Bottom: Be careful here, these can be loaded with high fructose corn syrup.
My suggestion: Plain yogurt and add your own fruit with a drizzle of honey.

Trail Mix: Sure it sounds great with all the nuts and sugared fruit, then some add chocolate – this is really high in calories and with all the sugar will not keep your filled up for long.
My suggestion: Have a handful of mixed raw nuts.
Fruit Juice: Very deceiving and loaded with added sugars – up to 35 grams of sugar in an 8oz serving.
My suggestion: Make your own juice or eat the fruit.
Flavored Tea Drinks: Deceiving tea sounds good for you however these have tons of added sugars.
My suggestion: Brew your own tea and add honey to sweeten.
