Would folks mind sharing their daily menus and point counts? I think maybe it would help us all see new ways of eating and get some new ideas from one another.

This was my breakfast today:

1 banana - 0 points
1 plum - 0 points
1 5.5 ounce Spicy hot V8 - 1 point
16 ounces of water


This was a pretty light breakfast for me because I usually do a smoothie and a handful of mini-wheats but I was feeling lazy this morning and in a hurry. I also have to kinda graze on this because it usually takes me until 10am to get all of this down. Still, a ONE POINT breakfast and lots of nutrition.

For lunch, I have this:

Amy's Light and Lean Black Bean Enchilada dinner - 6 points
Fiber One bar - 4 points
More water!

Afternoon snack -
Blue Diamond 100 calorie pack of roasted almonds - 3 points

Pre-dinner snack -
Fuji Apple - 0 points

Dinner tonight -
3 of my very good turkey meatballs - 6 points
1/2 cup whole wheat pasta - 4 points
1/2 cup of my homemade sauce - 1 point
1 cup steamed brocolli - 0 points
lots of water

After dinner snack if Im still feeling it -
1 of those very good WW raspberry chocolate popsicles - 2 points


I'll caveat this by saying that I do not usually have a pyramid like this where more of my points are at the end of the day. I usually try to get more of my points at breakfast and lunch. I also mostly have more dairy in my plan since I often make smoothies with almond milk or have a piece of cheese with lunch.

I am currently allowed 43 points per day for my weight range and everything above comes out to 27 total. That's pretty normal for me to stay in the less-than-30-point range. I know Im supposed to be getting more points a day but it's hard.

Now, show me yours since I showed you mine!
