Recipes

There is a huge list of recipes on Weight Watchers online and you can search by food type, points value, specific meals (e.g. breakfast, lunch) and 'in season' foods.

I will also add here (when I find them) any recipes that have cropped up on the old thread.

Eating Out Points Values

This from ukladyluck has helped quite a few of us along the way, not that we're encouraging you to eat out ! Sometimes it's inevitable so it's nice to be able to go prepared and know what you're going to order.

    Right I'm going to Nando's for lunch tomorrow which means I need a filling breakfast as I wont be going till about half 1 (later than my normal lunch)

    So tomorrow:
    B: Muffin (2.5) 2 x LF triangles (1)
    S: Yogurt (1.5)
    L: Chicken breast in pitta with rice (9.5)
    D: ?? Only 3.5 points left!

    I've just realised as my super-duper new scales have put me in the 9's I drop a point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hang on let me go get the box...

    Salter Bodywise Stainless steel Analyser Scale (!)

    They measure weight, body fat, body water, MI and BMR. They were £19.99 in argos (I had vouchers too) They can store up to 12 people's details in them like age, height m/f etc which then measures all the other stuff...I think!

    They sound great Puddings. You can 'trial' them and let us know how you get on. :D

    My scales are broken (in that they don't tell me the right weight, I know I'm 6lb lighter :p :rotfl:).

    Right, I'm off to re-read the old thread, see if I can find some things for our shiney new first page !!

    I'll let you know but I think they've programmed them to show you're lighter than you actually are so you don't return them in a rage!!

    I really must try Oat So Simple, not sure if I'd like it - I'm funny with textures :o

    Lasagne - have you tired using Quorn? I tried it as the points difference is fab, I was apprehensive but actually it tasted good! Obviously not as good as normal delicious pointy calorific mince but a good substitute (for chilli too) AND the OH didn't have a clue I'd switched it..until I told him and it was 'oh yeah I thought something was different, not very nice was it' hmm and thats why you've just eaten a second portion :rolleyes:
