    Breakfast

    What do you guys have for breakfast. I've mostly been having the Belvita biscuits, for ease more than anything else. I have to eat at my desk, so cooking things isn't really an option in the week, but they're 4 points a pack and I was wondering what other people go for and how many points do you...

    Is anybody there??

    I'm here! I've had a busy/stressy few months so not been sticking to my points as much as I should have... still lost 5lb overall, so that's better than nothing! I don't rate PP, tried it and didn't lose any weight, people kept telling me that I should amend my points and not eat certain...

    The Check-in Point

    My weigh in day is Monday, so it'll be nice to do it together! I'd totally convinced myself that I'd put on this week after all the junky/travelling food. I also had a friend's birthday meal out on Saturday but I did super well - SO chuffed with myself. Skipped the bread roll and a starter, had...

    The Check-in Point

    2lbs off after my first week, was hoping for a little more of a drop, but it's TOTM, so hopefully I'll get a similar loss next week before slowing to the 1lb a week that's my usual pace.

    There's an ITSU right next to my work, so now that I'm back on the WW Discover wagon again I wanted to work out if I could actually eat anything from there - not a fan of the fishy sushi, but decided to point it all up as I couldn't find anything on here already :) Sides, Small Side Salad -...

    Thai Food

    I have the Eating Out guide page: but I was wondering if anyone has worked out the points for anything else? I noticed Pad Thai isn't in the book, was surprised that it was only one page to be honest, but then I guess Thai food wasn't as popular when I got my book back in 2000!

    discovery points weekly bonus points???help pls

    Yup, the weekly bonus points thing is the new Pro-Points. On Discovery (or Vintage) Points you get a set amount of daily points and of those you can save 4pts (max) per day towards a meal/night out. You can only save them for that WW week though - whenever you weigh in and start your new week...

    Egg white omelette

    I never use milk in my omelettes, I don't whisk the egg too much either - just a quick swirl to mix in salt and pepper is all it needs, any more than that and the omelette becomes weak and you'll end up with scrambled eggs (or at least I always did!)
