Bread

[paula 36]

Hi guys, i have changed to ww bread and was just wondering how many points you use each day on breadxx

 

[Starlight]

For me it varies sometimes just a couple, other days its more.

Im not keen on WW bread. Its great for using as bread but if you like toast... its awful... doesnt toast well at all

I use 1 point a day on bread on a regular day, sometimes 2 but my bread is 0.5 per slice, its not the WW bread thought its the kingsmill crustless 50/50 as it tastes like proper bread, the WW one was too cardboardy for my liking when toasted

 

[Starlight]

Thats what I use too vodaka... it tastes much nicer and toasts like 'real' bread

Do you think im having to much i normally have 4 slices for brakfast,then 4 slices for lunch.I probally use 6 points a day which equals to 12 slices ww bread.

 

[Starlight]

12 slices a day sounds quite a lot. Even allowing for it to be WW stuff.

The most I probably have is 6, occasionally 8 but thats the exception rather than the rule

Thanks starlight,i always felt i was eating to much bread.I perhaps need to find some other ideas for breakfast and lunch.Because its low in points i actually felt i had a lot for breakfast and lunch.What do you normally have ?xx

 

[vodaka999]

Why not have 2 slices of bread for brekfast ( maybe try the crustless one its much more satisfying than the WW stuff ) and have and poached or scrambled egg on it, or a tin of WW beans for 2 points, or even garlic muchrooms. They are a few of the different things i have on mine in the mornings when i have time, either that ir its marmite lol.

I just posted on your thread with some examples of what I have had for breakfast and lunch. Some of them still include bread but it might help you cut down a wee bit. Good luck.

Bread is my downfall (and cheese!), can't have either in the house (except for the WW bread, as that's technically cardboard)

I usually try not to have more than 4 or 5 slices of WW bread toasted per day. The WW Malted Danish seems to be slightly better than the WW White, and they do a thicker cut brown loaf now aswell I think, but possibly 1pt per slice as opposed to the normal 0.5. An old but good trick I find is to just cut it into smaller slices and put them in a pile, so it looks like I'm eating a lot more than I am.

Id definitely recommend the Kingsmill crustless. Im like you Rosemary I love cheese. Its not great but Tescos HL cheese toasts not too badly, I have that quite often, just to get my cheese fix

I love the feta light its 7 for a packet so i split it over 2 meals its scrummyxx

Its nice isnt it... much better than WW stuff

 

[paula 36]

Ive decided to try and have 2 slices of decent bread a day ,instead of having loads of ww breadxx

 

[vodaka999]

That sounds like a good idea

Had some lovely tescos finest wholemeal 2 slices yum yum.I had the crust and another slice 4 and half points but worth it
