Menu Plan for the first week of June 2011!

So far my progress with Weight Watchers has not been phenomenal like I'd hoped, 2 pounds down in a week and a half is not amazing for a start plus I am nursing and only 5 weeks postpartum so I should be losing that much each week just breastfeeding! So...hopefully this week will be better as I add more exercise. I think I need to cut back on fruit some too...unlimited fruit is great but frozen bananas are just too versatile:) So I will keep on tracking those points! Oh, I have about 25 pounds to lose.

I'd love to hear from anyone who has tips for success!

Breakfasts: cold cereal, oatmeal, toast, eggs, fruit

Lunch/snacks: leftovers, hot dogs (for the girls), soup, salad (for me), green smoothies

Dinners:

Monday: Taco Salad and Mexican Tortilla Skillet

Tuesday: Breakfast for Dinner (diced potatoes and eggs), toast, fruit and cooked carrots

Wednesday: Panda Orange Chicken with Brown Rice and stir fried veggies

Thursday: White Bean Soup (similar to one at Friends for Weightloss), grilled cheese

Friday: Spicy Buffalo Grilled Chicken and home fried potatoes (baked)

Saturday: Spaghetti and Meatballs, salad, french bread

Sunday: Clean out the leftovers, something from the freezer

Anyone have any favorite low points recipes to share?!

Once again, I don't know about points, but an easy-to-prepare meal I've been having is hummus, whole-wheat pitas, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, olives, and feta. The olives and feta can be cut out to make it healthier, and tahini dressing can be added in to make the veggies into a salad.

That sounds really good! I think I had a recipe for homemade pita pockets somewhere...

Now if only i could get my dad to eat stuff like that and I could make it for dinner!

I do chicken enchiladas like the smart ones for hubby they seem to be great.

Also refried beans on tostados or a soft taco shell add lots of veggies.

Hope those ideas help for low points stop by and see us sometime at www.glossymoney.com
