I dont know if this has been said (cant be bothered reading through 14 pages!) butttttt the weetabix cereal bars are delish & only a point each! they do a white choc one & a milk choc one, white choc one is the best in my opinion, cant believe its only a point! Oh & tesco have them on offer quite a bit, £1 a box xx

just needed to leave a tip. I love the WW lemon slice with a cuppa about 3.00pm whilst at work. At my WW meetings a lovely lady said " no they're expensive, try the Tesco ones, they have a point labelled on them" So I thought always trust a woman's tips especially from someone who looks gorgeous, she must know the secret.....so I did and all I can say is I would rather spend the extra 49p to get the quality. The WW are the best, very lemon and moist and if I am making your mouths water, then buy a pack - yummy and scummy

Not really a meal as such but hellmans extra light or asda extra light mayo is 0 points!!!
worked it out on my points calculator and was shocked.
I tend to mix it with 1/2 tin of tuna (1 point) and some red onion (o point)
Amazing on a slice of toast or a warm pitta bread
Another good lunch idea is half a tin of baked beans poured over 2 slices of ww toast. (3 points in total) theres no need for marg as the sauce soaks into the bread and you cant taste the difference
Birds eye veggie burger (1 1/2 points) with home made wedges ,baked potato cut into wedges sprayed with low fat spray and covered in spicy piri piri seasoning (2 1/2 points) Dollop of extra light mayo (o points)
4 points in total for a light dinner

Another vote for Quorn
300g bag of mince, passatta, onion, grated carrot & courgette, worcester sauce, garlic makes a lovely bolognaise. I can get 6 portions out of mine - 1 point a portion I also sometimes have this one baked potatoes.
Quorn chicken fillets are also delish, can't remember how many points though but 2 is something like 2.5.
Velvet Crunch crisps - 1 pt per bag.
My WW leader told me about a bag of marshmallows that were only 1 pt a bag, has anyone found them yet?

Hi I am new to the site, Haven't read all the posts yet so I don't know if the food below is already posted. I find Tescos are great, living in Ireland we don't have Asda or Sainsburys.
Tesco, have low fat rashers smoked or unsmoked and are only half a point and are great for lunch on toast.
Tescos do a lovely reduced fat orange crispy bar and another reduced fat bar with sultanas and nuts and each bar is 1 point, the Tesco range of Cheese Curls (1point) and tesco Bacon fries (2points), and the taste lovely, I only found out about these items recently and taught I would pass it on incase it wasn't post.

A few things i find essential are:
Frozen grapes - alot more satisfying, lasts longer, kinda like sorbet.
WW mint tortes- i love these, i find them more satisfying that the brownie puddings which i also love, as the strong flavour means you dont want to eat anything after!
Morrisons are my lifesaver for roast dinners. Their own brand roast potatoes are 2.5 per serving which is a good 4/5 potatoes. alot less that aunt bessies anyway! Also their low fat gravy (if you can still get it as they seem to not have it in mine atm *heartbreak*) is lovely and no points for a cup.
I also like the tiggy puds, i think they are aunt bessies, where u get 2 yorkshires for 0.5 points. or a cheaper alternative is morrisons basics ones (in yellow plastic) which are bigger but 0.5 each.
i have them with 0 point veg stew and ww casserole meals as makes it feel a bit more indulgent.

Just thought of another one... if you like the kind of curry taste you get from chips and curry sauce from the chippy. The asda smart price curry sauce that is 5p a jar is pretty low. I think its max 4 points for the whole jar, which is meant to be 4 servings anyway but i have half. Its not spicy, or korma like its alot like takeaway! really tastes like its from a takeaway and cheap as!!! just add onion and mushrooms for nothing and i have it with ww chips.

Oh my gosh, im back AGAIN

and going on the bacon trend!!!
