As Weightwatchers goes, yesterday was pretty much a perfect day for me so I thought I'd finally get round to doing a post on what I eat. OK, here goes:
This is my menu for yesterday:
Breakfast:
30g of rice crispies with skimmed milk - 2.5 points
Mid Morning snack:
1 medium sized banana - 2 points
Lunch:
Tuna and mayo sandwich on WW bread , no spread - 3.5 points
WW black cherry yoghurt - 1 point
Mid Afternoon snack:
Half a tin of pears and half a tin of peaches in natural juice - 2 points
Dinner:
Cheese and spinach lasagne from Simply Autumn cookbook (serves 2 at 5.5 points per serving but added an extra point for extra cheese) - 6.5 points
WW Chocolate and raspberry fusion - 3.5 points (not worth the points though as did not like it)
Total points: 21 (my points are 21)
My days are simply variations on this. I do like sandwiches and so tend to have these for work most days although if I want to save points for dinner, I will have soup. Sometimes breakfast will be cornflakes, weetabix or oats so simple instead of rice crispies but I do try and stick to 2.5 - 3 points for breakfast. I've been trying to cook recently so have been doing WW cookbook recipes for dinner although sometimes if I am in a rush I do confess to cheating and having a readymeal. I also do simply things such as chicken, potatoes and vegetables or salad. I am lucky in that I like most foods so am pretty adaptable. Of course, normally I do not have desert so the 3.5 points I wasted on the horrible fusion would be used for potatoes and vegetables. I do point my veg as I know what it does to me if I don't.
I am also lucky in that I don't drink much alcohol so do not waste points on this.
I think the biggest thing that helps me is that I do a lot of exercise and although I must earn lots of bonus points, I do not count them or use them. Also, I make sure I drink plenty of water during the course of a day.
I hope this helps you.
