Planet Wise and Portion Control

I feel like even though P90x is a large part of my life right now that I still want to focus on weight watchers separately. For me, staying on plan plays a huge role in my success. So, I thought it’d be fun to start a weight watchers favourite of the week. And, here’s the first one!
These are just going to be short blogs about anything related to my weight watchers journey. Foods I love, products I love, and tricks that work!
Ok, so for me, my favourite snack of choice is cheddar rice crackers. I could seriously eat the whole package in one sitting. So to avoid that I’ve been portioning out what I want to eat into planet wise snack bags ahead of time. This way I know exactly how many points I’m eating, and I’m not tempted to eat the whole pack.
There are several reasons why I use my planet wise bag instead of a Ziploc bag or a plate:
- it’s re-usable
- it’s portable
- it’s a great size for snacking
- FDA food safe material
- PVC, BPA, Phthalate, Latex and Lead Free
- you can put anything in it (apples, crackers, cereal, etc)
- and it’s super cute!
My planet wise bag was actually a free gift with a cloth diaper purchase I made. But, they retail for around 8$. They also come in all sorts of sizes and cute prints.
Weight loss and dieting is challenging and can be somewhat boring at times. I look for things like this to spice up my meals!
