Hi girlies. Thought i would pop a sticky up for anyone doing WW. Any good recipies, meal ideas that you can point up for us or any foods/puddings etc you have found that you would recommend to others.
And i know we can lack inspiration sometimes so we can give each other ideas.

For anyone who like seafood sticks, Aldi ones are 0 points. Dont know if they are from anywhere else but i will point them up and see.

Virtually fat cottage cheese is free. Slap some on a ryevita and voila 1/2 point per cracker!
Instead of using a sauce in stir fry, use soya sauce its free.

When the chicken i just about cooked pour in 5 tablespoons and cokk the chicken in it for a couple of mins before putting vegetables in. A huge chicken stir fry for 3 points.

Sugar free jelly is 0points and i find it a great snack if i fancy something sweet.

Anyone starting the new weight watchers plan this week?
All sounds very confusing, think i need to have a good read [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] xx

Oh Mara once oyou've had a read i'd be interested to know how it works? I wasn't aware they had a ne plan, but i could certainly do with something new, i'm in a bit of a rut at the mo!
x

yes me too kell!! x

do you get all the literature in the first week or do they stager it like the other bits? I would like the info but couldn't commit to spending £5+ per week atm.

Its does sound interesting!

I just made this a "sticky" for you as you forgot pmsl x

You will get what you need really the first week. You get the new cardboard calculator, quite a good foods list, booklets all about the new system. I would say you could probably follow it with the first weeks literature. And of course if you need help i will be going to meetings and getting new literature every week xx

oooooooopsie look like i "stuck" the wrong one DUH !!!! X

Lmao Leah!!!

I took this one down cause i put a new one up

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Im losing it big time i knew there was a "sticky" somehwere. Think i ought to go back in my cave x

you were only doing your job

I the old weightwatchers not being done anymore then? Like if yo join youve got to do htis one?

Yep the old one is obselete now xx

well i'm on day one and so far so good, i spent most of last night repointing all my favorite recipies and planned todays food. I've found that i seem to be eating the same amount as before, maybe slightly less carbs, but i think that's the point!
Good luck everyone who's starting out on it.... I'm really motivated again and hopefully this time will manage to shift some of this weight for good!

gud luck claire. im joining tomorrow night. normaly im more of a slimming world girl than a ww but im gonna give this new plan a go as it sounds really gud x

Has all the points change for foods or are they the same??
We have the WW points books xx

its all changed hun. the points are not worked out the same.
A medium jacket spud used to be 2.5 but is now 8 lol xx

i joined on line, im still trying to work out the site!! im officially starting the meal plans on monday but will make an effort over the weekend just to test it out lol!!

I cant believe a potato is 8 pts!!! I used to get a hamburger happy meal for that - burger was 4.5 and sml fries 3.5 with a diet coke! Me no likey!

snoopy - yeah but ure now entitled to at least 29 points a day plus the 49 a week. so now u cud have ure spud and a BIG MAC meal still in one day! x

Oh I thought it was a maximun of 29 pts a day + the 49. If a spud was 8pts I was imagining a big mac being 25pts!

I want a big mac meal now, thanks lol! x

Ok so by comparison how many points was a big mac and how many is it now, I know it's figured out differently but I would have thought it would still be very high and not worth the pointage!

All this talk of md is making me want a breakfast and coke! Grrr

Not sure wat they were before but this is wat they are now:

Big Mac - 13
Big Tasty - 23
Cheeseburger - 8
Quarter Pounder with Cheese - 13
McChicken Sandwich - 10
Large Fries - 13.
