Yay i joined!!

so the weight watchers thread got me motivated and i just got home from joining!

only problem is i dont know what to eat for tomorrow because i didnt get a chance to go shopping yet

any suggestions from you fello WW girls?

Congrats on joining!! And good luck!

Depending what you have at home: try to eat and many fruits and veggies as you can.
If you don't have anything healthy for lunch stop and get a sandwich at subway...whole wheat sub with either turkey, ham, roast beef...get lots of veggies and mustard or light mayo.
Just do the best you can for your first day. Its hard when you don't have the right food to work with!! Even if you aren't perfect on your first day, its not a big deal. (It's actually my secret- I have Sunday Cheat day. I weigh in on Sunday and then afterwards cheat and dont count points for that one day- ive still lost 26lbs!)

GOOD LUCK!

Congrats on joining!!!! Good Luck!!!

at first it seems very overwhelming, because you have to think about everything before you eat and kind of have to pre-plan, but after a while you get the hang of it. It has just become a routine for me

Good Luck!!!!!!

hmm for breakfast....... i used ot eat leftover fried calamari lol (got alove drug rep lunches)

u can go with.....egg whites...

a yogurt with granola...

i usually have 3 egg whites and 3 pieces of turkey bacon (2 points TOTAL)
and a VITAMUFFIN (1 point)

lunch- i get the perdue short cuts chicken tities. and veggie wraps and i put the chicken on the wrap with mango and peach salsa..it fills me up big time (4 points)

walmart has sugar free jello SOOOOOOOOOO good and ZERO POINTS! 12 cups for 2.50

if ur near an italian place..get grilled calamari 1 point = 1/2 cup with grilled veggies

or get a wonton soup..its like 4 points and it fills me up ......

HTH

For when you do go shopping...some low point snacks I found that Ilove:

Vitamuffins (1 point)
Light Ruffles Cheddar &Sour Cream (1 pt for 15 chips)
All Bran Crackers (1 point for 9 crackers)
Mini Rice Cakes (points vary based on flavor)
Hummus & Veggies
Reduced Fat Chips Ahoy (1 pt per cookie)

The WW Snacks and Meals are great too. The mini cakes are soooo good (even though they're kinda small).

Watch out for the 100 calorie snacks- most are 2 points and they don't really fill you up!!

the WW choc muffins are really good-3 pts
for breakfast i usually eat cheerios
for a snack pringles now has the 100 calorie pack of chips that are good they are 2pts

i;ve been on the website trying to make up some meals (you know how they figure out the points for you) but any suggestions will be a great help since im so new at this.
any low point snack ideas?
