I had a veggie wrap in a sundried tomato flatout bread with a slice of 2% pepperjack cheese, grape tomatoes, romaine lettuce, fresh mushrooms, and 2 tbs of tostitos' spinach dip, along with 1 cup of organic butternut squash soup for and a serving of the new all bran garlic and herb crackers which are so very good! All of this for 6 points! I just came home from the gym and I was HUNGRY!

Re: what's for lunch today?

I had a chicken breast, some brochli and little dirty rice. And a Diet Green Tea, cant find out how many points Diet green tea in the bottle is..

Good Luck all!

Re: what's for lunch today?

I had that new Southwest Salad from McDonalds w/ the southwest dressing. That salad kicked a%@!! I also have a new favorite dressing, and it's only 3 points for the packet. I can deal w/ that.

Re: what's for lunch today?

I am having a cup and a half of mixed fruit- strawberries, watermelon and grapes.

And then the tricky part:

I had chinese stir fry for lunch. I don't know how many points to count it as? I had about a cup of chicken, then the veggies and two tablespoons of sweet and sour added after it was cooked in water.

I am guessing between 7-10?

Re: what's for lunch today?

I had a flat out pizza 3 points
WW smoothie with WW yogart 2 pts


green tea 0

Re: what's for lunch today?

I had a lean cuisine pizza. Anyone try the new all-bran crackers? they are good and only 2 points a serving.

Re: what's for lunch today?

I had the same thing Ben had except I didn't use the dressing. I used light ranch dressing for 1 point instead.

Scott,
Welcome! The diet green tea should be zero points. Which kind are you drinking? Is it the lipton diet green tea with citrus? If so, it's zero points. If it has zero calories, then it's zero points. :) If you have any other questions, just let me know. I'll be glad to help.

Re: what's for lunch today?

Today was Subway with my mom. I had a turkey breast salad with vinegar/no oil and a bad of baked lays. I had them mix spinach and lettuce both. It hit the spot! Then we grocery shopped and I got restocked on LC paninis, cookie dough sundaes, sweet potatoes, and diet coke. All my latest faves!

Re: Re: what's for lunch today?

Late Lunch/Dinner combo:
Aimee's cola chicken with Tammy's suggestion of added smoke. I also added brussel sprouts and some tomato paste. Very nice!
I ate 1.5 breasts so I would say it is 8 points.

two Kroger Multi Grain Strawberry Fruit and Grain
140/0.5/2 = 2 pts x 2 = 4 pts
OR 5 pts depending upon how YOU count it.
I did count it as 5 pts.

Re: what's for lunch today?

Morningstar Chicken Patty on a WW Bun- 4 points
Banana- 2 pts
Granola Bites- 2 points

Leaves me with 15 for the rest of the day.
I am working today 12:30-9, past 3 days i have worked,7-330, so when i eat is not always the same. But i adapt to when i eat my lunch,dinner, etc. I just make sure i eat! and dont starve. I do pack my lunch now and take bottles of water with me. Saves money and i dont have to guess at the points.

Re: what's for lunch today?

Lite lunch for me today

boca Grilled Veggie burger 1pt
thomas lite eng muffin 1 pt
1 slice 2% pepperjack cheese 1 pt


water 20 oz bottle

Re: what's for lunch today?

All Bran Crackers Garlic Herb (15 2 points)
Eat Smart Tres Bean Dip Jalapeno & Lime (2tsp 0 points) But i counted it as 1
Cup of honeydew

*** one time i posted something that when i did the pointsfinder it was 0 points, well You would have thought i committed a double murder. The replies were not so nice. But if something is 0 points and i dont want to use it as 1 point, that is up to me, i am the one who in the end has to be accountable :),

I really dont know how this dip is 0,because it has pinto,kidney and black beans. But that is what the servings/point size says. I know if i use 1/4 cup, double the serving size it will be 1 pt.
