prairiebreeze, there are LOTS of good things you can eat! (I just got home and read your note). I highly recommend the Progresso soups that are labeled "100 calorie per serving" on the front label. They taste good and most are only 1 or 2 points. You can make a sandwich out of low fat American, low-fat bologna or tuna (using diet bread) and have soup and a sandwich for only 3 or 4 points. You can add carrot sticks and celery and dill pickles for 0 points!

Another thing I do is use Fiber One ceral by general mills. That stuff has so much fiber that a half cup of it is ZERO points. I use it as my late-night desperation snack along with skim milk. You don't need sweetener because they have sweetened it with sucralose. Add some fruit to it if you like.

I also recommend Jello fat-free sugar-free pudding. I made a banana pudding for supper and one serving was only 3 points, even though I had added a banana!

Lean Cuisine makes some good entrees, and they put the points value on the side of the box in small print. I use a lot of those when I have to have something at my son's house.

Also, Eggbeaters gives you the equivalent of 2 eggs for only one point, and I scramble them with onions and jalopenos and put them on a WW English muffin with a piece of low fat cheese. THREE points!

Our class leader has a million tips and recipes like this. I take notes every week because I like to eat and broiled chicken with steamed vegetables is just not my style. LOL!
