Fruits and vegies. Buy them and cut them up and put them in the fridge to grab right away when you want to snack.

You can eat anything, just keep track of your points. The frozen dinner things I tend to stay away from as they are higher in sodium. Nice salads, nice lean meats, boiled eggs. Did you happen to get a book that has point values?

Yes I got a small slider book on ebay for the points and I bought a calculater too. I just struggle with what to eat I guess I just need to sit down and work ahead and do meal plans. Having fruit and veggies cut up and ready to go is a good Idea. Going to the store today.

Weight Watchers introduced their new Points Plus program in late Dec. I love that "most" fruits and vegetables have zero points. Since I love fruits and veggies, this is perfect for me. Going to the meetings is one of the most important parts of the program for me. Each week, when I weigh it makes me accountable for my choices. We also have a great leader and wonderful people who attend on Monday nights.

I joined at the beginning of the new Points Plus program. I think that giving higher point value to the nutritiionally empty foods was the best think they could have done for us. I really think this time, I'll not only make it; but I'll be able to stay on the program.

If you use "E Tools" on line it will cost you each month.

but if you're a monthly member of Weight Watchers, you get their monthly pass E-Tools is included. That's what I did, get the monthly pass and the E-Tools has proven to be invaluable. Plus, monthly pass is a lot cheaper than paying weekly.
