WW newbie questions

Okay I bit the bullet and signed up online. I have 29 points. What's the best way to divide them for meals and snacks?

What are some filling low point snacks? My go-to granola bar is 4points!

I eat breakfast at 630 and work sometimes until 730 pm so I nerd things to keep me going all day. Im in my car a lot so i need things that can stay cool with an ice pack and don't need to be heated.

Thanks!!!

Are there any good Android apps?
And how do I look up food fromcertain restaurants??

Fruit and veggies are free so definitely have lots of those at arms reach.

With snacks, I do veggies & laughing cow cheese, apple or banana with some peanut butter, cottage cheese, cheese stick with a couple of crackers, or vitamuffin tops.

I only joined a couple of weeks ago so I am still trying to hammer down my meals too. I made a lentil soup the other day that is 4 pts so I have that with a small salad on the side for dinner. Roll ups with turkey, cheese and lettuce is a nice lunch with some fruit on the side.

Breakfast is the hardest for me....I am always starving. Today I ate a packet of oatmeal (3pts) mixed with applesauce and I had a hard-boiled egg (2pts). That with my coffee and creamer (2pts) and before I know it...7pts gone.

I agree about fruits and veggies- baby carrots and grapes are easy to snack on. Alot of people like bananas (I don't eat them personally..yuck!) with peanut butter.

Also, greek yogurt and cheesesticks are good for protein.

A good thing to do at first (while you're still getting used to the points)- plan out your day the night before. I would leave an extra 2-3 points just in case.

Re: WW newbie questions

I generally have a low point breakfast (Dannon Light and Fit Yogurt (2pts) and a banana)

My lunch is usually around 6pts

And I usually save 10pts for dinner.

So I plan about 10 pts in snacks throughout the day.

I like to snack on:

Banana
Grapes
Carrot Sticks
Snap Peas
Pop Chips -- 22 chips is 3pts
Red Fat Wheat thins -- 18 are 3pts
Laughing cow cheese -- 1 wedge is 1pt
Red Fat Triscuits -- 7/8 are 3 pts
Cheese sticks (either cheddar or mozz) -- 2pts
Spec K bar -- 2pts
Kelloggs Fiber Plus bar -- 2pts
Trader Joes mini brie --2pts
