Seven Days of Weight Watchers - Part III

I have been very bad.  No, not because I've gone off the Weight Watchers.  Actually, as of yesterday, I was down almost seven pounds.  But I've been bad because I said I would give you seven days of Weight Watchers, and I got too busy and stopped at four.  With our patio project, a new teaching gig I'm doing, and just general mom stuff, my blogging slipped to the bottom of my list.

But have no fear, but here are days 5, 6, and 7 so you can finish up!

Friday - Daily Total Points Around 24

Breakfast:
1 Cup of Multigrain Cheerios plus 1/2C Nonfat Milk (3 Pts)

1Cup Bear Creak Tortilla Soup (2 Pts)
24 Tostitos Bite Size Chips (3 pts)

Dinner:

Saturday - Daily Total Points Around 39 (23 Regular, Plus 16 Weekend Points)

I made this my "splurge" day.  You get an extra 35 weekend points every week to "spluge."  I choose one special meal out where I can use these points.  Since I already used 5.5 of my weekend points on Thursday, and one of my weekend points on Friday, that left about 28.5 weekend points to spare.

Breakfast:
3 Chicken Sausages (2 Pts), 2 Egg Whites with Tomatoes and Basil (1 Pt), and One Slice of High Fiber Whole Grain Toast with Spritz of Can't Believe It's Not Butter (1.5 Pts)

1 Banana (1 Pt)

Happy Hour:
Two Glasses of Red Wine (6 Pts)
1 Slice of Restaurant Flat Bread (4 Pts)
2 TBSP Hummus (3 Pts)

Dinner:
1 Restaurant Cheeseburger minus the top bun (9 Pts)
9 Tatar Tots or Fries (4 pts)

Dessert:
1/2 C Non-Fat Frozen Yogurt (3 Pts)

Sunday - Daily Points Total Around 23.5

Breakfast:
One Tall Non-Fat Latte from Starbucks (2 Pts)
Two Petite Vanilla Scones from Starbucks (6 Pts)

Lunch:
Coke Zero (0 Pts)

Dinner:

Lemony Turkey Burgers with 100 Calorie Flatbread Bun and Mustard (5 Pts)
 - Combine Ground Turkey with chopped cilantro, juice and rhine from one lemon or lime, 1/4 C breadcrumbs, 1/4C of Soy Sauce, and One Egg White.

 - Cut a potato into wedges, coat with spritz of baking spray and bake at 425 until crispy.  Salt.
1 Michelob Ultra Beer (2 Pts)

Dessert:

By the end of the week, I still 12.5 points to spare.  I used them drinking margaritas while overlooking my new patio on Cinco de Mayo, but the point is, this is very doable and customizable to your taste buds.

Happy Weight Watchers!
