Anyone using pro points here?

[Verity Chambers]

Just wondered if there were any pro points experts on here who could share recipes etc. Have just started today, don't usually have much will power but am hoping this plan may work for me.

I am. I joined just after xmas and have lost 37.5lbs so far, just 3lbs left to go

Cant think of any recipes off the top of my head but a couple of tips that ive found useful.

Oil is pretty high in points, so ive been using fry-lite spray to cook things. Its 0 propoints so helps a lot. I use it to make homemade wedges, and roast potatoes aswell.

If you have a sweet tooth then Sugar free jelly is good little snack. Along with some fruit - both 0pp.

The best place to go for recipes is the Weight Watchers community forums. You will find a ton of great tips and recipes on there.

Good luck!

have to admit that I'm struggling a little with PP - I lost my first 2 1/2 stone on the old points system and I've had trouble 'forgetting' old points and getting used to PP.

If you're on Monthly Pass then e-source is brilliant, you can use it to track and point up recipes and the graph of your weight and inches lost is a great motivator.

Good luck with your diet, I hope you manage to lose weight on it. One thing from our meeting today was that whilst weight losses on PP are around the same as they were on the old points system, gains are much less.

The main thing that i am unsure of is, if i have made a batch of say bolognese, with 0 point sauce, how much of that should i be having?
