Slimming Bites: Links to Helpful Articles & Recipes for Weight Watchers
The internet is such a wealth of helpful information and delicious recipes for Weight Watchers and others pursuing sensible weight loss and healthy balanced living.
I love sharing my favorite discoveries with you here.
Enjoy!
‘Diet’ products can make you fat, study shows – If you’ve questioned why sugar is so expensive on Weight Watchers SmartPoints Program, you’ll want to read this.
Researchers found that rats fed a diet high in sugar but low in fat — meant to imitate many popular diet foods — increased body fat mass when compared to rats fed a balanced rodent diet.
The high-sugar diet induced a host of other problems, including liver damage and brain inflammation. (ScienceDaily)
10 Reasons I Love Weight Watchers — Alexis, a Weight Watchers Ambassador who has lost 115 pounds and kept it off over the past 2+ years, talks about the advantages of Weight Watchers over other weight loss programs.
As a fellow WW and active lifetime member, I agree with every one of her points. (Organize Yourself Skinny)
Cheesy Italian Cauliflower Bake — A Weight Watchers friendly, gluten-free, low carb alternative to baked pasta with just SmarPoints from Alisha – I can’t wait to try. (Meal Planning Mommies)
Healthy Greek Nachos — Like Kristen, I can see these becoming a staple in our house this summer as the weather is heating up and I naturally turn to recipes that are more fresh and light. Make them vegetarian by skipping the chicken and using either hummus or chickpeas instead. (Slender Kitchen)
Weight Watchers Friendly Vegan Snacks — A collection of snack recipes for those who want to try to keep animal products out of their diet. (Snack-Girl)

AIR FRYER GIVEAWAY DETAILS…
We are giving away the Cozyna Air Fryer (Original 3.2L), recommended by Hungry Girl who said…
If you love the taste of fried food but not excess calories and fat, this appliance delivers. Here at Hungryland, we’ve gotten pretty good at re-creating fried food sans guilt with our own “faux-fry” oven method. But I’ve gotta say, the recipes we tried in our air fryer came out even crispier. It gets better: We tried them with and without a small amount of oil (per the air fryer instructions) and found that NO added oil is needed to achieve that crispy finish.
It’s NOT a uni-tasker. I’d hesitate to recommend splurging on a kitchen gadget that can only do one thing. So I was pretty happy to learn that our air fryer can also bake, grill, and roast. I’m talking meatballs, steak… even muffins and cake! The manual includes a comprehensive chart with foods, temps, and times, which I LOVE.
It’s a time saver! My oven takes around 10 minutes to pre-heat, but an air fryer takes only about 3 minutes. Plus, some recipes cook WAY faster in an air fryer… My butternut squash fries were air-fryer ready in just 12 minutes, versus the 35 minutes they take in the oven!
Clean-up is a breeze. No messy pans or oily skillets. You can toss the fryer pan and the basket right into the dishwasher when you’re done with ’em.
The built-in timer has an auto switch-off feature to keep the absent-minded chef in check. Have you ever gotten distracted while something was in the oven and returned to burnt food? Our air fryer’s self-timer turns off the unit when time is up!

AIR FRYER, YES BRING IT ON…I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THEM AND ALSO AN INSTANTPOT….WOULD LOVE AN AIR FRYER AS IT WOULD FEEL LIKE I AM HAVING A “CHEATING” DAY, BUT MUCH HEALTHIER. I NEED IT TO COMFORT MY 10 HOUR WORKING DAY AS A RETAIL MANAGER. THANK YOU SO MUCH> JAN
My biggest AHA moment was when I realized it took the power of 3……Me, Myself & I to have control over food rather than the other way around. Food always seemed like a companion, comforting for varying emotional reasons. Rather, it’s deceitful, lying about how it will effect your life and health.Only when you face it head on will you defeat it’s potential destruction. I will tame & CONTROL it. Otherwise it could eventually devour & kill ME.
For me it is important to track my points for each day. Also shopping to have the “right” food/snack ingredients in the house at any given time. Portion control is also important to me.
That I don’t have to starve myself to eat and live healthier
Set aside the time to search out creative recipes. Variety is the key for me!
Learning about air frying has been an aha moment for me!! Sounds
wonderful….sure hope to win the fryer!!
Meal prep is the key for me but also the hardest part of the journey. It always seems to the last thing on my “To Do List”. Always looking for ways to simplify the process.
Eating smaller portions and if there is dessert that I really love I take one bite and I’ve learned that satisfies me.
Keeping track of what I eat is key. Never deny myself. Go thru this journey with friends… then you can share any treats thus keeping portions down and friendships up!
