A day in the life of a weightwatcher

Although I supppose Weightwatcher is technically a diet, it's also a lifestyle choice. You learn to pick healthy options but that doesn't mean you can't have the odd naughty treat once in a while! This is a typical day's food for me:

Honey cheerios - 4 propoints
During the week I tend to buy one box of cereal and keep it at work. It's far to early to stuff my face when I get up!
 
Fruit - 0 proppoints
Does anyone else seem to get mid morning munchies around 11am? I think because I sit at a desk all day I constantly think about food - doesn't help that I sit next to the kitchen! I try to eat at least two portions of fruit a day.


Tomato and feta omlette - 7 propoints
I've gone off sandwiches recently and prefer something a little more filling. I don't like to waste more than 8 propoints on lunch as I like a few chocolate treats towards the end of the day. This filled a lovely little hole.
Chocolate minroll and Caramel wafer - 4 propoints
Everyone who works in the office knows that chocoate is very much a necessity! Around 3pm I tend to need a bit of a sugar fix and these do the the jobs quite nicely.
Quorn chilli burritto and rocket - 8 propints
For just 8 propoints this was such a filling dinner! I'll be eating quorn more often as it's so low in points meaning you can have much more. Always a good thing in my book!
All this food adds up to 23 propoints. I'm allowed 26 points a day but like to keep a couple left over incase I fancy a little treat after dinner. Light babybels are currently my favourite - they're only a point!

  1. I always need a snack mid morning so I go with fruit too but I'm calorie counting and it surprised me how many calories were in fruit. Your tea looks yummy I wish I could convince my partner to try qworn xxx

  4. I love quorn but hardly ever use it. I really should start using it more. The burritos look amazing though so will have to give it a try!

  5. I seriously wish WW was more established when I was overweight at 15. I am damn sure it could have saved me a lot of problems and the food looks SO good! x

  6. As I am hopeless at keeping track of what I eat I could not do this! x

  10. Quorn is great, especially if a vegetarian. Try 2 frozen quorn fillets with 1/2 a jar of WW Roasted Garlic Sauce, only 4 points - serve with zero point veg and some brown rice or quinoa.
    Also tracking is very easy with WW iphone app and/or online tracking. I sound like I work for WW, but I don't. I have lost 4 1/2 stone though!

  11. The omlette looks good, I must try making one! I also like the fact that I am not the only one who has two WW bars at the same time :)
