Favorite Low-Cal, Low-Carb, Low-Points Foods

Thought I'd start a thread.

What are your favorite low-everything foods? For me - I've been enjoying the Progresso 0-1 point soups. I love my Boca burgers (1 WW point for 14g of protein). I also love my FatFree hotdogs (1 WW point). I eat those mini-carrots like they're the last thing to eat on earth. They cause some digestive problems but they're 0 points so worth the pain. We've been eating a lot of the fake crabmeat from Wal-Mart. Don't know how many points but really good. Salad's are free when using WW points - I love my salads.


My nemesis is starchy/comfort foods - I could live on mashed potatoes.


I look forward to what works for each of you.

This is a very good question. I don't know what my favorite low cal foods are. I dont' really know if I eat any, lol. That is my problem.

I do like fruits and veggies but I know I don't eat enough of them.

There really isn't a low cal food that when I am eating it I say to myself "Mmmm I can't wait to have more of this".

Maybe once I hear more from everyone else I will know of some good snacks and meals to start eating. I think I need to get a WW book so I can keep better track of everything that I am eating.

I'm all about finding what I CAN eat at certain restaurants. I just about sh*t a brick when I realized they had taken the Fuji Apple Chicken salad off the menu at Panera.
The salad bar at Ruby Tuesday's is good too - I know what I can pick off the bar without getting me in trouble.

Olive Garden the spaghetti with marinara is 'supposedly' only 6 points.


But I'm a huge pasta freak. So... I've been eating http://www.ronzonismarttaste.com/
An ENTIRE box of it is 15 points (though let me know how you could manage to eat the entire box). A tiny dab of spaghetti sauce, some herbs (free points!) and a teaspoon of parm cheese and its really hard to go wrong. Steam a piece of chicken or fish hardly adds points too.
