WeightWatchers & "How Many ProPoints?" Thread MkII

Well I was at Body and Soul over the weekend and I'm hoping for a STS tomorrow. I made good enough food choices - given what was available. I drank so so much though so used a few weeks worth of weeklies! I'm hoping hours of dancing and endless walking around in mud will earn me several activity points though! Even if I'm up though, I don't care - I had a great weekend, and can lose back whatever I've gained
Good luck to everyone with their WIs this week!
Did you have a good time! I ate and drank so much- had to try the food from every stall - hah! But with the constant walking and 4 trips in and out to the car with heavy stuff I'm hoping the damage was limited!
I had the lightly dusted cod from Aldi for dinner last night and it was sooo tasty - would highly recommend it! I think someone said on here recently it is 4pp per piece of cod?
Also, has anyone been watching Gok cooking chinese food? Looks soooo tasty and healthy - gotta try some of the recipes! 0 -

I find the toughest the side lunges with the arm lifts....really struggle with those, think the rest are fine with the 1.5kg weights.
I struggled with this bit as well and could never complete it fully. What I've done now is I only use one weight rather than 2. Jillian does say you can modify things as long as you keep moving.Thinking of gettin the 30 day shred to help tone up a bit, would ye recommend it for that..? Does it have maneable exercises coz I've seen so many with impossible exercises! And do you need lots of space to do it..? My sitting room is quite small!
I love it and have seen the inches fall off. I do it in my bedroom which is tiny. Level 2 you need a little bit more space but is still manageable in a small area. Like I said before, starting out modify the moves if you want. As you get used to it you'll be well able for it.Another quick question about 30 day shred.....am I right in thinking that there are 3 levels?? (I got the dvd but I haven't got the case off it). How long do you stay on level 1 for before moving on to the next??
It's generally 10 days but they can be spread out. I read an interview by Jillian where she said that you should do 2 days, then a cardio day and then a rest day. Alternate it like that.With all the talk, I just ordered the 30 Day Shred. I actually ordered her whole collection for £18 on amazon. Has anyone done any of her other DVDs?
Losing weight is expensive!
I got her killer buns & thighs and ripped in 30 boxset last week. Still haven't used them yet as I only have time to do 30 days atm. I plan on trying them next week as I'll have more time to focus on weight loss and exercise then. I did watch the killer buns one and I'm now terrified
I agree with you losing weight is definitely not cheap. As is eating healthy. I shop for one so it's a pain for buying veg etc. I feel like I'm constantly in and out of the shop. The rewards are well worth it though 0 -

yes monife i know thatWell done on your loss
You shouldn't eat only 26PP if Weight Watchers have allocated you 50PP. While you will lose weight to begin with, you will plateau much sooner than if you had otherwise stuck to the plan given and it will make it harder for you to lose weight for a long period of time and to stick to plan as your points go down.,i only did it for one week to kick start the weight loss. 26 points was ok for one week. i have to lose lots, had a realy bad year last year. had breast cancer being through chemo, two operations, and last but not least radiotheraphy, doing weight watchers now to get mary back to her rightfull self;)told my leader about it and she said be carefull cos it might set me of it cos of so little to eat at my weight..at 50points daily is to much for me cos i just cant eat them all. i know i can do it cos id lost 6stone before.... 0 -

So I think I have figured out how to make a beef wellington for 14pp - let me know if this sounds right.
75g tesco light puff pastry -6pp
150g fillet steak - 6pp
1tsp mustard
musrooms and shallots sauteed with 100ml of white wine and 1tbsp WW cream 4pp (makes enough for 2 so 2pp per portion)
egg white wash
So going to serve it with roast BNS, asparagus and spinach for a treat dinner for my OH that I can make WW friendly for me 0 -

Yeah you are right, I am buying for just myself too. Popping to the shop nearly every day to pick up something or other. Never mind the price of buying new clothes when everything is too big for you! :rolleyes:0 -
Well I made homemade chicken korma tonight, it was delicious if you like indian food you'll like it!
I roasted the chicken for 25mins, in a large pot I fried 2onions, 1/2 green pepper and 2 garlic gloves in spray oil. Then added 1tsp of garam masala mixed for 1 minute. Then added 4 tblsp of passata and 150ml of chicken stock and 1 tsp curry paste.
Let simmer then when my rice was boiled i took the curry off the heat and mixed in 3 tblsp of fromage frais! (do this when its off the heat or it can curdle)
It was seriously delicious and all for 12 pro points!!
This looks yummy!! How much chicken and rice did you use for it to be 12 pro points? How many people does it serve?
Thank you0 -

I had an awesome time! So much messy fun
All the walking and dancing did some good too - I was down 2 lbs at WI last night! Only 1 lb to go until my 8th silver 7 and my 4th stone. Next week, hopefully... 0 -

Was down a very surprising 2.5lbs this week. Im only 2lbs away from being in the 10 bracket, haven't been there in a really long time. I know alot of people will scream at me when i say this but i dont know is it that i am just in the right head space or what but im finding losing the weight this time quiet enjoyable and a surpised how well im doing. I have lost 30.5lbs since March. Getting good results on the scales or non scale results just make you feel great and it def gives me energy. Congrats to everyone on your losses. 0

I feel the same - I've lost 35.5 since jan and its the first time a diet isnt a chore at all. I mean dont get me wrong it takes a lot of hard work and determination - but when its so rewarding that it makes it enjoyable!0 -
