Danny and others I hope this info helps - I know I for one love to have soup especially at lunch so I will be jotting these down for my shopping list too.
These are according to the latest Complete Food Companion.
Again I hope it helps...........talk with you all later..............

many, many thanks, Linda

I came tonight to see what anyone knew about the soups, and it was like you read my mind Linda I had better buy the Complete Food Companion.
Does anyone have the eating out guide? Wonder if it is worth it.

The Dining Out & Complete Food Companions are ESSENTIAL! Please get them!
Then you can look up all the answers for everyone who ask!

Learning how to use the Complete is important too.the instructions are in the front!

LindaJL..there is NOT a limit on the FF SF Pudding but I would keep portion control in mind.that is something we are all learning too.......so to have it more than once a day might not be wise!

I liked the idea of adding sf jello to that plain yogurt for flavoring..............going to try some lemon when I go to the store again!

Hi
Where could I get this complete guide book please?

Chezz

Good (early) Friday mornin' all.....

Danny I was happy to help, as a 'soup' person I would have wanted to know too. Trudy glad it help you out too. Soup just seems so fulfilling (to me) especially at lunch, quick and easy,when you're busy.

CIN- as for the SFFF pudding I would only have it at night. I STILL need my dessert - old habits die hard. But I will tell you yesterday was my first day of full CORE meal, even though I journaled and counted pts....there go those old habits again..........but anyway, I had a Great first day. I was SO against this at first - the last hold out amongst many even at work. Yesterday I was so satisfied I couldn't believe it myself. After breakfast, which was 1c Fiberone, thank God it's on CORE with my FF milk (7:30am) I didn' feel 'hungry' at all but about 10:30 I had a cup of grapes, and not until 1:30 was I ready for lunch, and a great lunch it was, salmon, couscous and mixed vegetables, totally satisfied for hours!!!! A handful of grapes later in the afternoon and dinner (get this) not until 6:45!! WOW is what I thought. And dinner I might add was great too......chicken tender sauteed' in Pam then added some tomato sauce and simmered, and the 100% WW spagetti and boy oh boy was that some meal, I even surprised myself
It wasn't till much later I though of dessert......old habits again, but my choice was a wise one........1 c SFFF Jello Choc pudding......deee--lish!!
I was quite satisfied at the end of my first day. I must tell you though I had tried Core before when it first came out here and though, there is no way I am doing this it's too restrictive, boy was I wrong, and I am the first to admit it. After reading Linda (DerryDaughters') recipe the sky seems to be the limit. And I dont see too much of a problem with eating out. A nice gilled chicken and veg or pork chop or small steak-----beats having to counts the points that they would be. Even the fast food resturants have some really good salads these days. So all in all I am happy today and I have proved myself wrong.
I hope all of you are having as good as an experience. Seems those who have weighed in have done fabulously.....I w/i Sunday, will let you know. This week although the majority was Flex I never got to my full pts because of Hurricane Frances.... no access to much , had to make the best of what I had, but I did NOT cheat.......not once during this. So in essence I did Flex, not meeting the points target and then when I calculated I fell into the Core plan, I did at the end of my day Wednesday use all the 35 pts allowances but nevertheless I did not falter from either program. So yesterday I had a FULL core day and will today too.
Well all..........have great days out there............keep us posted.....Linda

Chezz you can purchase the books at the Meeting places of WW.
They are truly worth it Especially The Complete Food Companion.

If I can help you in the mean time, please post and let me know.

Linda

Have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Linda, isn't it wonderful to not have to "think" about food all day? You just eat Core when you are hungry and stop when you are full. You don't have to worry about getting hungry because if you do you can get grab a piece of fruit and keep going. That's the best part for me. I can handle stress at work so much better now. I have even given up the diet cokes I was drinking every day. I tried the Club Soda and had a glass when I was thirsty and didn't want more water (I drink a couple of bottles a day) but something with a little zip! A wonderful discovery for me--never tried it before. I have never been a big meat eater but I think I am eating more now because I don't worry about the point value. And love getting that milk. I have found I am pouring too much out though and am full so I have to pour it out--gotta stop that. Just a small glass and then I can get more if I need it. That's the skinny way of eating! I lost 2 lbs. my first two wi and weight again tomorrow. Can't wait!

Good morning all! Glad you guys liked the recipe, found another one this morning that would be one point, though I'd share it..... sounds wonderful and "appetizerlike" for a party or BBQ? Also, am going to experiment with making homemade fried rice of some kind to serve with this, can use olive oil, egg, partially cooked brown rice, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts and onion, sautee in the oil, add egg and then broth and soy sauce and simmer until done - think it would come out ok?????
I have a new term I am using in my head when I convert a recipe. I'm going through this exercise with you all as I am training myself right along with you guys..... This new term I am using is called "CORE +" The plus stands for ONE point extra due to one ingredient that is non-core. But, with 35 flexpoints a week, we can spare the one point in order to get flavor, texture, etc. This week I am using about 1 point a day as my CORE + and about 2 day for ww frozen dessert treats and that kind of thing. I am doing much better this week staying in control. Going away for the holiday weekend last week put me out of my weight loss mindset temporarily, but now I am back on track and doing quite well. Still journalling as I am fascinated with how core fits into my daily point allowance nicely on flexpoints as well. I am trying to stay in that points range as best I can for portion control, not worrying about it all that much. Like Janette was referring to, I am not feeling as hungry in between meals eathing these foods. If dinnertime is a bit later (and it was nearly 7:00 when we ate last night instead of our usual 6 pm, a very busy day) I was "ok" to wait a bit and wasn't grabbing at snacks. About 3 pm I had a bag of microwaved 95% ff popcorn with water and was just fine waitng for dinner which was a grilled chicken salad with ff dressing.
So, here is today's CORE + (CORE, plus one flexpoint) recipe!!!!!!

From The Mystic Seaport's "All Seasons" cookbook by Connie Colom (by the way if you don't know Mystic Seaport, it is in Connecticut USA and a living maritime museum, awesome family place to visit and see incredible stuff, even going on board a real 1700s whaling ship, a three masted schooner! Cool! Great ocean views, great history, horse drawn carriage rides, great giftshop and cookbook!!!!!

Chicken Oriental, CORE +

Skewered cubes of marinated chicken wrapped in snow peas.

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon fresh minced ginger root, or 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
2 whole chicken breasts, skinned and boned
1 13 3/4 ounce can chicken broth (we use ff here, of course)
36 fresh snow peas, blanched, strings removed

Tahini Dipping Sauce:

1 cup plain yogurt (we use ff naturally)
2 tablespoons tahini (here is where you need to count the point - not core)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

NOTE THAT THIS MUST BE MADE AHEAD.... do it in the morning for a carefree dinnertime!

1. Combine soy sauce and ginger in shallow dish; add chicken breasts, turning to coat. Cover and marinate in refrgerator at least 4 hours or overnight.
2. Bring chicken broth, chicken and marinate to a boil in a large saucepan; redue heat and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat; cool.
3. Separate blanched pea pods into halves. Cut chicken into 1-inch cubes. Wrap a snow pea half around each cube or chicken and secure with wooden pick. Cover and chill until ready to serve. Serve with Tahini Dipping Sauce, which is made by combining all ingredients and refrigerating for several hours.
Yield 6 dozen
Bon Appetite!
I'm having this tonight!
Linda in NH

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen:

Hooray for CORE! I agree it is so great not to have to journal and to eat only when I feel hungry. I am eating at least 3 or more fruits per day and I believe that is what I like best about this program. This morning I had two eggs fried in olive oil, two slices of whole wheat toast - 1 pt. with ff cream cheese, and of course my large cup of coffee plus 1/2 peach and cantalope. By eating this way I will stay full until lunch. Thanks for all your great recipes. When I make something exciting, I will also pass it along!

Have a great day!
Anita

Danny and others who inquired about soup.....check the Thread
Corrections to CFC - third thread down on page.
There are some changes to the soups listed in the CFC booklet.
Check it out for the updated info..........

Hi All...............

Janette, and Nita........yes I am liking the Core more and more. I'm telling you I was the biggest hold out amongst many I have spoken with!!
Today is my 2nd day, although tomorrow ends my week, but that's ok I didnt get near my points range anyway for 4 days (hurricane Frances)

I had lunch and I feel so satisfied it's scary. Not once have I said "gee I'm hungry" in two days.......hhmmmmm
I am coming up with some of my own ideas after reading the recipes from Linda DerryDaughter and others. Boy when you think about it, there is SO much to make and choice ===the skys the limit, and not to have to count!!
I still feel guilty about that. I did journal for the entire day today, and counted points too, but you know what I erased the pts counts and my ENTIRE day is CORE !!!! I truely enjoyed my 1c SF FF choc pudding last night.

I am just a bit scared about w/i....I have been very lucky these past 11 weeks, losing every week.....down 15 lbs in 11 weeks. But now I feel SOOO full I'm thinking I may be gaining, but I am very much into portion control so could it be my mind playing tricks on me or shall I be worried

I wonder if I will continue Core if I DON"T see a change??? How do the rest of you feel??

Oh I have a question......regarding Barley.....since it is not listed as limited like the WW pasta, b. rice or potatoes, does this maybe mean we can perhaps make Barley soup and have it more than once in a day, say lunch and dinner and NOT count the points?? Does anyone know??
Well I will check back later but in the mean time........have a great day, and let us know how you are doing and handling it............Linda

Linda, if it doesn't say barley is limited in terms of the numbers of times in a day, then soup made with it twice during one day is fine, at least that is my humble opinion.
I just had black eyed peas, turkey and string beans for lunch, wasn't craving tons of extra food afterwards, really cool!
Linda (Derry daughter)

I have invested in a box soups to have here at work - my favorites are the Cambell's Southwest chicken Veggie, Split Pea and tomato.

Hey Fried Rice is on the top of my list as soon as I get a stove again - which should be in an hour or so - been without one for almost 2 weeks now. Remodeling kitchen and sold the old one. Can't wait to boil eggs again too!

Hi everyone.......my question is...........should I be nervous about w/i after doing Core for the past two day, while the rest of the week I did Flex.
I have been very good and never strayed off program in 11 weeks....losing a total of 15 lbs so far. After all I read about Core I wanted so much to try it.
Even though I did not go past my Target pts all week, and these past two days maybe to the mid 20's (my target is 20) I calculated my pts for the week so far and I have averaged about 22 a day. BUT..........I feel SO full these past two days, like I am now holding on to some weight. Is that weird and am I crazy?? Or am I just so satisfied and not hungry.
Please let me know what you think..........I am very worried about weigh in tomorrow.....but I guess I should tell you all the good bad and indifferent news. Wish me luck...........I may be Flexing AGAIN tomorrow after that!!
Linda
