I think it depends on the food and if it's worth the calories - how many points? I'm eating soup right now that's 300 calories - but it's 99% fat free lentil soup that is really filling and has 8 grams of fiber so it is worth it to me.

I don't count points.

The average daily calorie intake for women is about 2,000 cals. So if lunch is only 1/5 of all your daily calories (assuming you fall in the average category) then I'd probably say no to your question.
