Hi all! I'm a WW staff member and wanted to see if I can help some of you struggling with the points. I'm wanting to lose 5 lbs. gained since I started taking some meds in November, so I went back to weight loss points (22) last week. I was eating 28-30 points + all 35 FPs to maintain.
Here's what I ate yesterday:
Breakfast: lowfat cojack cheese bar (2), South Beach Wheat Crackers (2)
Lunch: Smart Ones Salisbury Steak (5), green apple w/fruit dip snack pack from Walmart (2)
Snack: South Beach oatmeal choc chip cookies (2)
Dinner: WW Chicken Tetrazzini -- great recipe from WW mag (5), salad w/Naturally Fresh lite ranch (2), Pillsbury parm-garlic breadsticks (4)
Snack: WW Cookies 'n Cream Bar (2)
Total for day = 26
FP used = 4
I have found that many of the South Beach food items are very filling and low in points b/c they are so high in fiber! I wish all of you the best of luck -- learning how to get the "most bang for your points buck" is a learning process, but it does get easier over time...so hang in there
