Eating Out

For those on WW what are some foods that actually taste good and are low in points when you eat out?

For me the weekends are the worst cuz we are never home - which means are are always eating out. I checked out dwlz.com and even the healthiest things on the menu are high in pts!

Also for those that are losing wt, do you use any or all of your flex points?

ETA: When I say eat out I mean your average spots like chilis, cheesecake factory, etc. I dont really eat fast food so thats not a problem for me.

Re: Eating Out

I like to do Chinese food

Egg drop soup 1 cup = 1 pt.
Hot and sour soup 1 cup = 2 pts
Shrimp with broccoli 1 cup = 2 pts.
White or brown rice 1 cup = 4 pts.

This is a great website to check restaurant points:

Re: Eating Out

I eat wherever I want one night of the weekend and tend to use most of my flexpoints on that meal. I always use all of my flex points on the weekends.

Re: Eating Out

Thanks, maybe I should do that try and be very good on the weekdays and one night out, treat myself and use the FP...wish it wasnt so hard though

At least now that Im eating WW chili for lunch I have more points left by dinnertime

I find it very hard to eat out and actually enjoy what's out there without going the healthy route - ya know same ol salad with dressing on the side, grilled chicken, steak and a baked potato yada yada yada

Everything is LOADED with points
