Ok, for all of those Weight Watchers out there…don’t make the mistake I did. I found these yummy looking ham and cheese meals that look like larger hot pockets. The box said 6 points on the outside. It was only when I got home and started heating them up that I realized, there were 2 SERVINGS to a BOX. So, my lunch was just 12 points! YIKES! Man, it pays to read the fine print, doesn’t it? They were good, but only eating 1 of the two would be the equivalent of eating a half sandwich for lunch. This carb-addicted girl just can’t do that without starving the rest of the day!
Sue just posted a WW recipe. I’ll dig through mine and post a few more to the recipes section soon too!

I’ve bought those before and they are good, but 1 is not enough by itself. I had to always have a big salad or something. You do really have to watch the labels, because they really want to mislead us. They should not be alowed to be so misleading either. The biggest problem is how to figure up all the points for the different popcorns. I still don’t know the answer.

Thanks for the heads up, CMC! Look forward to the recipes.

Ouch! Don’t you hate it when that happens? I’ve been shocked to discover the calorie count of some things I thought were just fine to have. You would thing they’d state the points for whatever’s in the package, tho. Doh!

Well, here’s what was misleading…
The package had 6 points in big print on the front of it, BUT the picture showed two of the little pocket sandwiches. To me, that says 2 = 6 points. Most microwave meals are only 1 serving too, especially WW microwave meals (aside from pizza, that is). So, it was really my fault for not looking at the serving size on back. BUT, I do think that’s false advertising too!
