The family that eats together...stays together!

My husband loves food. He comes from a family of FABULOUS cooks. So when I decided to incorporate Weight Watchers, I knew getting his buy in was just as important as sticking with the program.  That is the reason I try so many different recipes to show him how great being Healthy can be.  I am so lucky he has embraced this change with me. We are even eating the same meals! This was our lunch today:

Cheeseburger on Bagel thin: 8 PP
White Cheddar Cheetos Puffs- 28 for 3 PP
Cantaloupe: 0 PP
TOTAL: 11 PP


Happy Eating!

Cheeseburger in Paradise!

Today Daryl  Rodrigo cooked me a fabulous cheeseburger and cheetos for lunch today while I was catching some rays in the back yard.  (Rodrigo is Daryl's name when he is being my cabana boy:) Lunch was fan-freaken-tastic! Here are the details:

Pre-Frozen Lean Burger from HEB- 4 PP:

Natures Own Bagel Thin- 3 PP:

Kraft Sliced Cheese- 1 PP:

Baked Cheetos Puffs- 4 PP for 32 pieces ( I only had 16 pieces for 2 PP):

It was a great lunch to eat under the sun during this perfect afternoon! It took about 15 minutes to make! This might be a new lunch time favorite!

Happy Eating,

Recovering Fast Food Junkie

Today I needed to run to the mall during my lunch hour and was not able to go home and have my usual lunch.  It didn’t take me long to realize that I could have one of my new favorite lunches from an old FAST FOOD FAVORITE…WENDY’s!!

As admitted in a previous post, I was a Whataburger addict.  To be really honest, I love fast food in general.   When living on WW this time I decided to find something that was filling AND satisfied me when I wanted to grab something on the go. I kinda stumbled this accidentally on a Saturday when we needed to grab lunch before going grocery shopping ( A MUST WHEN SHOPPING WITH MY HUSBAND!).

This great filling meal is only 10 PP!

1 Jr. Hamburger- 6 PP:






1 Small Chili- 4 PP:




You can also add 3 saltine crackers for 1 PP!

This meal not only is great on the go but it is quite filling! I highly recommend picking up this when you want to satisfy your “Fast Food” feeling!

Happy Eating!
