Hi newbie here about to start a points diet ….. only need to lose a stone but would like to lose two stone ideally – 51 years old 5ft 2 10 stone how many points am I allowed per day? and does anyone have a real simple daily diet I could follow ie breakfast two weetabix – milk
lunch …. blah blah
Dinner ….. blah blah …
So that it is totally simple for me to follow and therefore not cheat? Im thinking of just buying the weight watcher foods as they are already measured or am I insane for doin so re price?
All suggestions hints and tips welcome 🙂
Hey Bexley, welcome to the site. There is a point quiz on this page that tells how many points you get in a day, but it is all in pounds so you would have to calculate the conversion to stones. Below is a look at how may day usually goes:
Breakfast – Fiber One Bar or Bagle Flat w/sugar-free preserves (2 points)
Snack 1 – Sugar-free Jello Cup (0 points)
Lunch – Deli Turkey Sandwich w/fresh fruit (5 points)
Snack 2 – Fat-free popcorn (1 point)
Dinner – Here is where I usually use most of my points. Choose lean cuts of meats and a variety of veggies, fruits and healthy sides
Snack 3 – Something low points as I usually only have 1 or 2 left by this time.
I think that if you tried living off of the ww foods that you would find that not only are you paying more, but also that they are not really any healthier for you than food you would prepare yourself, and that you would probably find yourself feeling hungry more often. There is a page here with tips that you may find useful. Good luck with your goals!
