Looking for someone who's had success on WW. I'm doing the flex plan from home and am really enjoying it, but I want to make sure this looks right to you. Any advice, suggestions, things that look good or don't...would be greatly appreciated. A lil background...I weigh 230lbs and eat 26pts a day. I usually use about 25 flex points a week. Today was...

Breakfast-banana (not much of a morning eater, but I try for something)-1pt

Snack-1 ricecake-1pt

Lunch-half a sandwich made with one piece of whole wheat added fiber bread and tuna salad made with spicey mustard and LF mayo.-4.5pts
Green pepper strips-0pts
1 serving of FF pringles-1.5pts
Fakeout sorta smore with 2 sm. gram crackers and one marshmellow in the micro.-1.5pts

Snack-half an apple w/1 TBSP PB-3pts

Dinner-Going to this Chinese Buffet but I eat the same thing every time. ( I have to budget for this)
1 crab rangoon-2pts
green beans and broccoli-1pt
sm bowl of wonton soup-1pt
6 pieces of veggie only sushi-5pts
fresh cold, plain shrimp-2pts
1/2c vanilla FF frozen yogurt-2pt

Total today-25.5

Eating a solid breakfast is always helpful with weight loss. Adding just two hardboiled egg whites would not add any points, but would add some protein to start your day. Another WW member I know was losing slowly or not at all, but when she started eating breakfast at the leader's suggestion, the weight started coming off.

As far as nutrition goes, while any food is okay with WW, bananas and rice cakes do cause blood sugar spiking so it's something to watch out for if you start having cravings. I saw a lot of sweet carbs, not a lot of protein, only a little bit of fruit, and not that many veggies. Again, with WW, eating like that isn't a problem as far as staying within your points target, but nutritionally, your menu could be better and once you start reducing the number of points you eat per day, you'll want to get the best bang for your buck.

Just my 2 cents. . .
