It dawned on me the other day how much I really like V8 and how drinking a couple servings of that each day would do the trick. I get the low sodium one and add a little hot sauce. Only 1 point for an 8 oz. glass, and I'm having two glasses each day.

That's two less points for me to "get creative" with.

Oh I totally feel you on that Thinker. I can eat all the stinking fruit I can stomach... but usually only have the vegetables when my dinner. Unless I do a salad or sandwich for lunch.

Luckily, my boss has a vegetable garden and always brings me in cucumbers & tomatos. I slice one of each almost everyday, and put in a container with a lil' pepper, and eat it in the afternoon. He eats a LOT of junk food (an entire snack pack of Reese's)... always sitting at my desk. I was hungry & bitchy the other day and snapped at him for eating crap in front of a woman on WW! I guess I made him feel bad, because he came back from Sams with a huge fruit tray for me.

I like V8, too.... but with a lil' vodka, so that's a no go
