Skinny Points

While I realize that it is not the best option in the world, McDonalds does exist, and you may occasionally eat there while doing Weight Watchers. There are some healthier options to have there, but if you are craving something like a burger and fries, try a kids meal or one of the new mini meals. This way you can still have the taste you're craving but without as many points as say, a Quarter Pounder or a Big Mac.

A big part of me being able to stay on Weight Watchers is knowing that there are options - no matter where I am or what I am eating. It's all about the choices!
