Weight Watchers

I just found a wonderful site! As I'm pretty sure I've mentioned, I've joined Weight Watchers. One of the hardest parts is figuring out recipes. I know how but it's tedious and I like to figure it out before making it. It's practically impossible when you don't have serving amounts either. I've been trying, but it's tough.

However yesterday I found SkinnyTaste.com which is titled also as Gina's Weight Watcher Recipes and there are tons of types of recipes and so many look tasty! Thhttp://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=7434860901764225500ey all have point values and will make life much simpler.

Today for lunch I made 8 Zucchini Pizza Bites and they were very good!


Definitely took a bite or two to adjust to the change in crust but the cheese and pizza sauce really helped my pizza craving. It says it makes 4 bites for 2 points, but zucchini is 0 pts and the sauce and cheese made around 8 (probably could get 10 out of it) with my thin organic zucchini which really helps you feel fuller. 3 pt lunch for 8 pizza bites and two slices of pineapple! How wonderful.





And yes I said Organic... I watched Food, Inc. Bad things happen when you watch that movie. I'm also having difficulty eating chicken. I can't buy from Tyson anymore. They grow chickens in two days! Those chickens grow to be exactly like the people in Wall-e and can barely stand. It was very depressing. It does, however, convince you to buy from locals and get food from companies that treat their farmers better. That's the main point of the video: to show how they treat the farmers and how it could effect you. That's the reason I watched it but in order to show the factories and how they work, they threw in chicken handling and yeah...

Oh on that note I was told to look up Oahu Fresh so I'm going to go check that out.

Try those pizza bites!

  1. I LOVE Food, Inc. It was one the things that convinced me to become vegetarian. So glad you're looking to organics now...it's so much better for our health, the environment, farmers, everyone!
