Question

Question for those on blue. I’ve noticed that a lot of photos of dinner plates are void of a carb, yet breakfasts and lunches typically have them. Is this a recommendation of the plan, or is this just how people are budgeting their points?  

Answer 1

My plates always have carbs. Everything in moderation.  

Answer 2

I was taught at meetings, king, prince, pauper So I do carbs early

Answer 3

I eat carbs at all my meals.  

Answer 4

According to A@perviousA our plates should have at least 30 grams of carbs not simple carbs but the complex ones whole grains, brown rice beans etc but it all fits in the WW lifestyle. just my thoughts for a healthy person especially a diabetic. Check out the importance of those carbs and incorporate them . they help with keeping hunger at bay

Answer 5

WW is geared to steer us to make healthier/ smarter choices. I eat a zero breakfast- egg, mixed veggies, protein, hot tea. Lunch- protein, fruit, pickle, cheese stick, and chips (5 points) @perviousinner- if you budget it wisely then you can carbs.  

Answer 6

I personally just budget my points for what I want. I tend to do low carb, but it’s just a personal preference.  

Answer 7

Thanks Everyone, I just learnt last week that banana in a smoothie is 4 pts. So I was afraid I may have missed something else.  

Answer 8

I do no to low carb breakfast and lunch and have carbs at dinner. We can do it however you want.  

Answer 9

It’s just a coincidence, I suspect. I have not heard of a recommendation or rule from the plan.  

Answer 10

Well I am blue and I do try to limit the carbs. 1) they are higher in points 2) less carbs, less hungry and 3) seemed to just work.  

Answer 11

It’s just how people are budgeting

Answer 12

I am lifetime and blue. Over time I’m come to do any bread/cracker carbs at breakfast or lunch ( I gave up pasta and rice along as well as just don’t care for then). Seems to work much better for the waistline. I maintain lifetime, yet my waist got smaller with no white carb at dinner

Answer 13

I still will have them. But very few. I notice my body does not react well to carbs. Or they are a trigger food to me.  

Answer 14

There is no rule on carbs. You work the plan how it works for you.
