Here’s my Weight Watchers Smart Points Food List:
Fruit and Veggies – 0 Weight Watchers Smart Points
I’m not going to list all of the fruits and vegetables that you can buy from Walmart Groceries. That would be a waste of your time and mine. Instead, I’ll tell you that I normally buy bananas, apples, oranges, tomatoes, cucumbers and lettuce every week. Depending on my mood, I’ll snag some bell peppers, eggplant, celery, onions, cauliflower, mushrooms, and squash. Then I try to eat them as fast as possible so they don’t spoil. Most fruits and vegetables are 0 smart points unless you blend them in a smoothie. Then you’ll count them in the recipe per the Weight Watchers Smart Points program manual.
Coffee Creamer – 0 – 1 Weight Watchers Smart Points
Coffee creamer was the hardest switch for me on the Weight Watchers program because I love Coffee Mate Coconut flavor creamer. I didn’t care if it cost another 100 calories when I poured it in my travel sized mug until I realized that my coffee was costing me 5 smart points in the morning. I tried Premier Protein vanilla drink in my coffee first and it’s pretty decent. Then I found Great Value Sugar Free French Vanilla creamer. It’s only 1 smart point for a tablespoon, which I find to be a bit much. If I’m only using 1 tsp, then it’s 0 smart points. I try to stay in that range when possible.
If I’m in the mood for chocolate flavored creamer, I’ll use the Nestle Coffee-Mate Chocolate Sugar-Free creamer. It’s 1 smart point for 1 tsp, but so worth the points.
Jilly’s Sugar-Free Gelatin Dessert – 0 Weight Watchers Smart Points :
Sugar-Free Gelatin is only 0 Weight Watchers Smart Points. I like convenience so I try to buy them already made, but will also make them if I’m saving a few cents that week. Jilly’s gelatin runs under $3 for 12 of them, which is much cheaper than the Jell-O brand.
Great Value Sugar-Free Chocolate Flavored Syrup – 0 Smart Points :
I use a little bit of this chocolate flavored syrup on my frozen bananas. It makes a great afternoon treat. At only 0 smart points, it’s hard not to have a frozen banana split every day.
I have to be careful with putting sugar-free substitutes in my body. I wish I could be an organic loving, natural sugar, no junk food eating kind of gal, but right now I’m not there. I tried to do that a few years ago but ended up giving up. I think it takes more than a month to create better food habits. I think it takes years. Sugar-free items are yummy, but can lead to cramps and other unhealthy results. Like everything, sugar-free substitutes should be used in moderation.
Almond Milk Unsweetened – 0-1 Weight Watchers Smart Points :
