Weight Watchers Points And Raw Foods Means Quick Weight loss
In my quest for optimum health and weight loss, I investigated Weight Watchers points to see how raw foods added up in the course of a day. What I found is that they don't, they have 0 points. So that means you can dive in like a crane and not face the repercussions of gluttony. And with raw foods you don't have to strap on the feed bag and go to town because of the high water and fiber content you get full faster and no need to unbutton the pants or take a nap.
For a typical female age 35, weighing 150 lbs, at 5'7 the weight watchers points would be 26 in order to lose a pound a week.
The goal of course is not to go over 26 points per day and to choose wisely.
For example:
1 Piece of Chocolate Cake with chocolate frosting (138 grams) =15 points
Big Mac (McDonald's) = 14 points
Blueberry Bagel (bakery style) = 8 points
1/4 cup of Almonds = 4 points
Protein Shake = 4 points
1/4 Avocado = 2 points
Subway Sandwich 6" Veggie Delight on wheat bread = 6 points
1 Slice of Wheat Bread = 2 points
RAW FOODS WITH 0 POINTS
Apples Celery Pears Watercress
Apricots Cherries Peaches Watermelon
Artichoke hearts Clementines Pickles
Asparagus Cucumbers Pico de gallo
Bamboo shoots Endive Pineapple
Bananas Eggplant Plums
Bean sprouts Grapes Radishes
Beets Grapefruit Raspberries
Bell peppers Honeydew Rhubarb
Black berries Kiwi Rutabaga
Blueberries Kohlrabi Most Salsas
Broccoli Leeks Squash
Brussel sprouts Lemons Spinach
Cabbage Mangoes Tangerines
Carrots Oranges Tomatoes
Cantaloupe Papaya Turnips
I try to aim for the low GI index foods and distribute the "point's" throughout the day. Along with drinking lots of water, at least 3 liters.
Yes you can!!!!!
KEEP ON TRUCKIN MY FELLOW SUGARKICKERS!
XOXO,
Kim:)
