Hiya Tenney
I think you can have as much and whatever variety of protien you wish as long as it comes from the list you can have.
The recepies in the book such as the tuna narcoise salad mixes protiens. I suppose you choose what you want but don't exceed what you know is the right amount in total - although this is down to the you decide.
I have been having cottage cheese and quorn slices with salad so I have been mixing my protiens. I know that AJ used to have eggs with Tuna or Salmon on salad.
My councellor said it was down to me to decide what to eat as I asked whether I could have Quorn sausages, burgers and bacon back in week 3. I didn't eat them they are still in the freezer.
I would do whatever you fancy the main thing is you just don't exceed what you really need.
As for the sauces, I haven't actually had time to cook anything in sauces yet. I found in Tesco there own Healthy Living veg one which is low cal/fat/sat fat. Also ragu's original sauces are fairly low and I noticed that Sainsbury's had weight watchers cooking sauces in small pots which are again low fat and cals.
I am not really going to use cooking sauces as I bought loads of tinned toms and aim to start cooking my own again, that way you get extra veggies and no exactly whats in it. No added salt or sugar either!!
I hope this is helpfull if you find anything better let me know as I am still on the lookout all the time.
It would also be great to know what other people are using.
How are you getting on anyway Tenney, are you enjoying the tastes again? My tastebuds have changed so much much of the stuff I loved before I find bland and the stuff I was less keen on I love.
Let me know if you need anything else as I will be asking too.
Have a great evening xx
