Low-point meal planning
I have been following weight watchers for over a year with good results - losing 119 pounds - but now that I'm down to just 19 points a day I'm having trouble doing meal/snack planning to fit into my points. I earn a ton of workout points each day but I prefer not to use those.
My breakfast is 4-5 points, lunch is 5 points and I spend 2-3 points a day on snacks. That leaves me between 5-8 points for dinner. Any suggestions on filling dinners that fall within in the 5-8 point scale? |
I'm not in the low point range but these are some of my favorite dinners:
-- Morningstar Chipotle bean burger on an Arnold bun (5 pts total) -- microwaved in paperbag popcorn with spices (1-2 pts) -- lettuce salad with chick peas (2 pts) and other no point foods (onions, cucumber, green peppers, whatever) -- lettuce salad with chicken (4 pts) and other no point foods -- grilled chicken breast I earn a lot of activity points but if I'm especially hungry some days then I do use them. |
You could try eating the same dinners as you did before, but cut down the portion size of the entree. Then add in some zero point veggies to give you a full feeling.
