| These are just a few things that I like to eat while counting points, these are nice b/c they are low in points and also cheap 
Make a cup-o-soup packet and put some cooked 0 point veggies in a chopper and add to soup...this makes it more filling without adding points.
lettuce sandwiches on low cal bread ..yum!
air popped popcorn w/ no cal spray butter...3c. = 1pt!
15 ff pringles=1pt
popsicles that are only 35 cals...1 pt...these are a few of my favorite things. I look forward to getting ideas from others! This is great!

| The good thing about WW is that anything is allowed. It is how many points you want to spend for what you want that matters.
Molly McButter Natural Butter - 1 tsp = 0 points
Natural Cheese - 1 tsp = 0 points
Jolly Ranchers Sugar Free Hard Candy - 4 pieces = 1 point
My favorite popcorn - Act II - 94% ff butter - 6 1/2 cups = 2 points
Act II - 94% ff kettle - 6 1/2 cups = 2 points
Act II - 94% ff kettle - minibag = 2 points
Sugar Free Jello 1/2 cup = 0 points
