Healthy Oils
In my last WW meeting there was a significant amount of talk about healthy oils and how they are essential to weight loss. They are part of the weight watchers good health guidelines (GHGs). It states you should have two teaspoons of healthy oils a day. Almonds, fish oil or other oil caplets, avocados, etc don’t count. They want you to find a way to have straight oil. Now, as a Flex Plan person, this kills me as its an automatic 2 points out of my 19 pt day. But she said that its proven that people who eat these oils lose weight faster and have better skin and hair.
Seeing as though I have been bouncing around 130.4 for SIX WEEKS now, I’m willing to try anything. So, I’m asking you, how do you get your oils?
Suggestions from our meeting include:
* pouring over YOUR serving of whole wheat pasta
* pouring over YOUR portion of roasted veggies
* salad dressing
* oil in your smoothie (um, sounds yucky to me but they swear by it)

Amanda,
I too have trouble with the oils however, in the Eat Wisley book if you look under Oil it says that they are 1 point. I only get 20 per day too so I hate to give up ANY points. I put it over oatmeal. Can’t really taste it.
