Well, I officially started the Weight Watchers Plan.
I've dissected it want to record it to be able to refer to it.
Per day 29 Points Per week 49 extra points. (in my case)
All fruits and nearly all vegetables count of 0 points (yay)
(2) slices of bread are 5 points!!! yikes!
Target:
6 glasses of fluid per day, best option H20
2 t healthy oils
2 portions dairy
Be active
Expect to lose between .5 lbs to 2 lbs per week (yay)
Go for a 5% goal in the beginning (for me 8lbs)
Suggested breakdown of points :
Breakfast 5, Lunch 8, Dinner 11 Snack 3, snack 2
Not suggested to go below points for the daily target.
There's a calculator available to count how many points by inserting the amounts of fats, carbs, protein etc.
Also: Two identical meals with the same number of calories will not yield the same number of points. WW calculates the 'work' done by the body to metabolise.
So, I think this is doable and what I need. I'm looking for a steady loss (no matter how small) , and this is what WW is promising.
We'll see how this goes.
Good night all!
