Just curious what others are eating usually for their daily meals?
Also what is your PP daily number per day?
I have 29 points and my usual meals
Breakfast (6 points)- 1 whole egg (2), Two pieces of WW Rye toast (2), 1tbs of light butter (1), some type of fruit (0), and one cup of coffee w/ cream (1)
Lunch (8 points)- WW Meal (usually about 6 points) and a small salad with light dressing (2)
Dinner (usually about 10 points)- grilled meat, veggies or salad, fruit or another WW meal if I am in a rush with a salad or extra veggie
The rest of the points I usually have a yogurt and dessert
My points for the day is 36 right now. I am tall though, so my range is always high.
My breakfast is always the same, because I love it. I have 3/4 cup of Nature's Path Flax Plus Cereal with 1 small Banana, tbsp of slivered almonds, 1/4 tsp of chia seeds, 1/2 cup of fat free skim milk and pumpkin pie spice (7pp)
Mid morning snack is a serving of unsalted roasted almonds and a piece of fruit like almonds, apple or peach (4pp)
Lunch will consist of a variety of things like left overs, sandwiches, soup or salade. I am for 6-8pp for lunch
Mid afternoon snack is a Luna or Myoplex bar to boost my protein and energy. I workout right after work and this gives me just enough to power through it. Depending on the bar I eat it ranges between 4-6pp and I choose a bar depending on my intensity. After a workout is a Fat Free Chocolate milk or a protein shake anywhere between 2-4pp
Dinner again is always different. I avoid complex carbs at night though as much as possible. So dinner will consist of Protein like chicken or fish and a heaping of 2-3 varieties of veggies. Dinner is usually 5-10pp, depending on what I have left for the day.
Dinner usually leaves me satisfied for the rest of the night, but on occasion I will reach for a rice cake with natural crunchy peanut butter, fruit or milk.

I get 42 points.
For my pre-workout breakfast, I have coffee w/ half and half (a habit I just can't modify), yogurt, and a piece of fruit- 3 points
When I get to work, I have a vitatop and some plain tea (3 pts)
For lunch, I typically have whatever is left over for dinner- aim for 8-10 points, but mostly try to stay under 12
Snacks- apple or banana, possibly another yogurt, string cheese, sugar free hot chocolate (3 points)
Then when I get home, I have some kind of snack because that's typically when I go haywire- so I'll have celery with some laughing cow, some pretzels, or a (hopefully) small amount of chocolate- 3-5 points or so
Then I'll make dinner, which varies. I have a few go-to meals: Bubble-up pizza casserole, turkey tortilla casserole, chicken with some buffalo sauce and a sweet potato, or chicken stirfry- I'm not much of a cook. I always try to have like 2 servings of veggies with dinner. Sometimes I'll try out a new recipe- I just got a vegetarian cookbook and another cookbook that looks good- so I might try that out. I try to stay under 18 points, which I know is high but dinner is always my favorite.
If I have any left over, I like to have some popcorn, just microwaved in a paper bag with some spray butter.
