ProPoints Nikkis WW diary!

[Nikki<3]

Morning everyone

Well.... Some of you may have seen me in the SW section but I've been stuck in a total rut with it, getting far too comfy with it and I've been playing with a whole stone for a year!! After a bloaty Easter weekend and putting 6lbs on since Saturday I decided I needed a change so joined WW online last night!

Any hints and tips are welcome as i have never ever done it before!

Welcome I hope you enjoy ww! I too have a Easter gain...too much chocolate!!! Any questions ask away

As for tips get yourself some weighing scales and track track everything. Fill up on 0 point foods, although I'm sure with you being on sw that won't be a problem for you

If you have the official ww app I'm nearly sure there is a list...but I don't pay for esource anymore. But it's basically your fruit and veg apart from sweet corn, avocado, coconut, peas I think potatoes and sweet Potatoes..

In out at the moment but il get ya better list later potatoes are 1PP for every 50g raw weight, pasta is 1PP per every 10g raw weight as is rice.

Idk if you heard but also ww are now doing simply filling or filling and healthy..theres a sub forum for it, it's very like slimming world as you have a certain List you can eat from till your full an no weighing etc..

Hi Nikki and welcome to WW.. Good luck

Just to add to veg that's ProPointed... parsnips n turnip are counted..

Another little tip is that not everything doubles in propoints.. For example.. most slices of pan bread are 2propoints each.. But if you have 2 slices it mostly works out as being 5pp's.. rather than the obvious 4...

If you have any questions feel free to ask and if I can, i'll help

There's a link to a few of my fav low PP dinners on my signature so feel free to ponder there.. And there's lotz of great recipes thru-out the site..

The whole doubling of portions but not equally PP's really confused me at first and messed me up a tad too.. So its always my little tip to newbies.. Tho sometimes its kind to us and you can get have 2 and only an extra 1pp, not 2 r 3.. (sounds confusing but its not really.. once you get your head round it)

Also, at the beginning I found it IMPOSSIBLE to use my dailies and be sensible.. I was using them on treats n crisps and forced to have an extra sandwich or something at night to use them up.. So try not keep too many til late evening... Its important to eat ALL dailies.. Weeklies are optional but allot of people find they have bigger losses if they use all/most of their weeklies.. Its all trial and error

Yum.. Love fajitas.. Have them.. WW wraps are 2 for 5pp (I think.. double check that) peppers, mushrooms, onions all free.. chicken is quite low too.. 100g chicken fillet 3pp.. Spices 1 spoon is free.. anything more is 1pp...
And don't forget you have 49 weeklies too so if you go over by 1 r 2 you'll be covered

Mmmm yummy!! Does the 1 spoon free include the old el paso spices say? And I'm assuming a tsp? Think I'll go via the super market on my way home. Yummy!!
