Ok....I am on 25 points a day and wanted to do a menu to further help me stay on track!

Does anyone have any sample menus of what they eat and the point values?

I want to make up a few mock menus to follow. I find that if I have it written out in front of me, I will follow it and not stray.

Anyone want to post what they are eating?? Thanks!

Hi there!

I'm on 24 points per day- here are some of my typical selections:

Breakfast:
1/2 c. plain yogurt, 1/2 c. berries. 1/2 homemade granola (3 points)

oatmeal (3 points)

whole wheat pita, 1 tbsp pb, banana (rolled up) (approx 5 points)

Lunch

Whole Wheat pita (1) with 1/4 avacado (2), tuna (2), low fat cheese (2), tomato and lettuce- 7 points total

Soup (points vary)

Subway (if I'm out)- turkey sub with cheese (7 points)

Dinner:
Usually some combo of:
ww pasta (1 c.- 4 pts)
chicken (3-4 points)
ground turkey (3-4 points)
baked potato (1-3 points, depending on size)
fat free sour cream (1/4 c.- 1 pt)
LOTS of veggies
Salad with balsamic and olive oil (if I have the points)
tofu/chicken stirfry (points depending on what goes in it! I love teriyaki sauce because it's 0 points)

Sometimes we order thin crust veggie pizza (3 points per slice)

Steak is a safe option when dining out, too...definitely one of my faves!

Snacks:
Fibre One bars (2 pts)
Skim Cappucinos (2 pts)
Carrots (0 pts)
Bell peppers (0 pts)
Pita (1) with hummus (3)
Apples (1-2)
Grapefruit (1-2)
flavoured tuna with melba toast (3)

Hope this helps I've definitely found that planning is the key to success. I recommend getting a WW cookbook - I have the 20 minute one, and I love it! I usually just sit down with it and tab everything I want to eat for the coming week.

Good luck!
