Hi bink! Welcome to 3FC!
I'm also doing WW, but I'm following the older program they had (winning points), it's the same as flex only I get no extra pts per week. But I believe the pt allowance is a little higher for the rest of the week.
I love WW b/c it gives me freedom to chose whatever food I want, but also teaches me to make better choices.
There are a few "staple" foods for me that I have to have. One is Thomas Light Multigrain english muffins, just 1 pt for a whole one! I like reduced fat cheeses. Like Kraft 2%, and other ones out there. Laughing Cow light cheese wedges, FF deli turkey breast, hummus (I make my own), Wasa multi grain crackers, Puffin cereal (original or cinnamon) only 1 pt per serving and it's delicious, Healthy Choice ice cream, Skinny cow ice cream sandwiches (vanilla).
I love to cook and I subscribe to Cooking Light magazine, they have awesome recipes and great articles. Check out their website cookinglight.com. Some recipes (newer ones) can only be accessed if you're a subscriber, but I believe others are free.
I'm here if you need help.
You'll find plenty of support and information on this website.
Best of luck to you... oh and here you go....
