New Favorites!

Okay so I am really into Gorton's fish products at the moment.  So far I have had the lemon pepper grilled fish, tilapia and salmon.  The Salmon and lemom pepper fish were my fave.  The tilapia was okay but def. not my fave.  They are all 2 pts.each which is awesome with the new points system.  It's hard to find low point foods and they are delicious and great for dinner.  Also, their fish sticks are only 1 point each so that is great too!



My next favorite is Cabot 75% Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar cheese.  It's 2 points for 2 ounces.  It is usually enough cheese to fill up 5 crackers so I've been using that cheese with Keebler toasted Sesame crackers (5 crackers are 2 points)  That has been my breakfast lately...

And lastly...everyday I have been going to McDonald's for a tea and a diet coke (yes I loooove the caffeine) but anyway today I decided to get a hash brown to go with it.... so I was looking up the new points plus for a hash brown and came across this site that shows all the new points for McDonalds..... I know not what you want to be eating but it is good to have it.  Also the website probably has some other good things on there as well I just haven't had time to navigate it yet!

Popcorn!

Too funny. I had the hardest time figuring out how many points my Orville Redenbacher 94% fat free smart pop popcorn was for the WHOLE bag... well apparently I'm not alone.... I was on my favorite blogsite, Roni's Weigh and found this old post of hers: This is one of the most asked questions on the Weight Watchers boards. Why is it so tough calculate points for popcorn? Let me break down the brand I eat. Orville Redenbacher’s Smart Pop 94% Fat Free Butter 2.9oz bag (regular size bag, not the mini or 100 cal pack)According to the bag, a serving size is 3 tbsp unpopped (7 cups popped) there are 2 servings per container which means the bag contains 6 tbsp of unpopped popcorn (14 popped) Nutritional information for 6tbsp unpopped: 240 calories 4 g of fat 8 g of Fiber 4 points Now the bag gives the calorie count for 1 cup popped as 15 calories. If you multiply that by 14 (number of cups in the bag) you get 255 calories for the bag. This still gives you 4 points. So, no matter how yo
