Toss This For A One Bowl Meal Changer! Weight Watcher Smart Points included.

I just ran the numbers! And this packed with flavor meal is only 10 points for Weight Watchers!

 

I can’t do it anymore! I have a whole stack of clothes that I love but are just too tight. I have to make a decision, just pack them up and donate them to the local thrift store, or seriously lose the weight.

Right now they are just collecting dust and I keep thinking “One Day..”. I know that if I don’t take action in getting this 20 – 25 pounds of extra weight off, it isn’t going to just melt off by itself.

I have always struggled with my weight and it does make me feel self-conscious. Now that we are starting to welcome little grandbabies to our family I don’t want to be the one to always hides behind the camera. I want to be in the photo!

So I made the decision to join Weight Watchers. Paid for 3 months to get the ball rolling and went to my first weigh-in.

I was afraid I would have to give up some of my favorites, and it is true, I will have to re-think what I eat. Instead of a huge serving, I might only be able to have a small slice. But, nothing is off the menu with Weight Watchers Smart Points. Whew! It is not a diet, but rather a shift in eating habits.

I took one of my favorite recipes and ran it through the recipe builder to see how many points is was. I even added extra chicken. I was afraid to hit calculate but when I did I was doing the happy dance. 12 points!

This is what Karina says about her flavor packed one bowl salad.

Quick Tip: If you are planning to make this salad to take for lunches. Go ahead and cook up all the chicken. Get out 4 wide mouth pint sized mason jars or airtight containers and layer your salad, starting with dressing on the bottom, then chicken, lettuce, tomato, corn, and so on. Put the bacon in a little sandwich bag so it stays crisp and also do the same with the avocado. When you are ready to eat, just dump the salad onto a plate or bowl. the chicken and dressing will then be on the top. BRILLIANT!
