Hi everyone :)

I started weight watchers online last week, and i'm pretty pleased with the results so far. Last week I went over my points a little (mostly due to a few too many vodkas) but I still managed a great -4.5lbs :D

Last night I began week 2 with a shop at Asda, armed with my phone with the WW app I worked out the points for everything before I put it in the basket. (I got a few tuts and looked a lot like a teenager addicted to my phone but hey lol)

A few things to note - Asda currently have the fresh WW meals for £1.50 - bargain! I bought a hunters chicken to try :) DINE rices are 11ppts and are 2 for £1.50, and I got myself some american style waffles which are 2 for 5ppts. Last week I was eating bagels but by the time i'd put jam and butter on the were 9ppts! :eek: So a lower point breakfast was needed! I looked at crumpets as the WW website says their only 2ppts each, but I worked out 2 were 6 points in Asda last night :( by the time i've put butter on, they'd be 7 and i'm eating my points up again.

Yesterdays food went like this -

Breakfast -
Missed, my lie in, my weekend started yesterday =D (I work shifts)

Lunch -
McDonald's Chicken Mayo 9ppts

Snack -
Costa Express Mocha *** 4ppts

Tea -
145g King prawns 3ppts
Amoy chilli noodles 7ppts
Sharwoods Kung Po sauce 7ppts

Exercise -
60 minutes mountain biking which my app tells me is 10ppts! Woo!

Total
Used 30
Weekly used 4
Exercise earned 10


I've put loads of *****'s by the costa because I looked up the nutritional values for costa express, and they're less points than a peoper walk in costa! =D My medium mocha went from 9 points in store to 4 points out of a machine and it tastes just as nice :) the nutritional info for express can be found here - http://www.costa-business.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/costa_nutrition_info_download.pdf

hi here to follow. welk done on your weight loss so far.

can I ask where you got your waffles from? I bought some and chucked the packet away and didn't point them up x
 
I think mine are just aldi but will probably be the same.....ohh I like them as a desert but don't have the points left at the end of the day lol so breakfast seems a nice idea for a change x
 
I love them :) I've just had a double check and they are 6 points, not 5 like i listed. The warburtons ones are 5 though :) McVities are 6 xx
 
cool. I might have some now with Nutella x

I was a bit naughty after the cinema and had chicken fried rice and curry sacue from the chinese. I ate about 2/3 and my boyfriend at the rest. I've found on the internet that chicken fried rice is about 20 points and a veg curry is 8pp.

Chicken fried rice 14
Curry sauce 4 (it wasn't a proper curry sized portion, so i've halved it.)

Snacks
20 cashew nuts at cinema 3pp

Went for 30 mins interval training - I bet I looked a right plonker sprinting to a lampost and then walking then sprinting... managed a max speed of 9mph though! Chuffed with that :)

Anyway... onwards and upwards!
