Yogurt, the lesser of two evils (sugars)

I have been lactose intollerant for about 15 years. Recently I've had friends with similar problems tell me they've been able to eat cheese and yogurt without any problems.

Cautiously I tried cheese. No problems! (which I assume there shouldn't be since there are 0 grams of sugars/lactose). That made me very happy.

Then I tried yogurt. I'm sensitive to too much sugar (especially fruit sugars and HFCS) and only found 1 brand that had less than 10 grams of sugars per serving, but sweetened with Splenda or Apspartame. (Blue Bunny lite 85 brand)

Even plain yogurt seemed to have 18-24 grams of sugars. If that's lactose, I want to steer clear. If it's HFCS, again, same thing.

But, since yogurt seems to work for me (except some serious gas LOL!) which is the lesser of two evils:

1. Plain yogurt with 18-24 grams of sugar (real sugar, not artificial or HFCS)
2. Flavored yogurt (vanilla mainly since fruits upset me) with 6-8 grams of sugars, but sweetened with splenda or aspartame.

Both of course only with live cultures in them (which I assume are the cause of the gas for me.. LOL!)

Thanks!
