Question

Need some advice.  My boss is bringing in bagels tomorrow for our meeting.Need some advice. My boss is bringing in bagels tomorrow for our meeting. When I looked it up it sounds like 1 bagel is 9 pounds. Any advice. I was thinking only eat half and scoop some dough out?  

Answer 1

Make a 2 point ingredient WW bagel and bring it in for 3 points with a laughing cow cheese or thin smear of cream cheese.  

Answer 2

Bring your own option to the meeting so you are less tempted.  

Answer 3

Eat the bagel if you want it, just have a zero point lunch (salad with chicken)

Answer 4

I also would eat half with a little bit of butter or cream cheese a light layer just to taste so its not to dry

Answer 5

Eat something ahead of time so you won't be hungry. I don't think there is anything wrong with saying no thanks.  

Answer 6

I would just say no. Twice at work now I have said no to offers of “free” food, lastly were the most delicious croissants. I felt proud that I passed. For me it wasn’t worth giving up that many points.  

Answer 7

Eat half. FYI The small lenders bagels are 4. Use I can’t believe it’s not butter for spread.  

Answer 8

Make it work plan the rest of your day/meals around your bagel meal! Or bring your own bagel and cream cheese that’s lower in points :)

Answer 9

Eat 1/2

Answer 10

Just have half of it.  

Answer 11

Bring your own yogurt and fruit. or whatever you eat for breakfast. Or. track the bagel and enjoy.  

Answer 12

Just don’t eat it. Eat at home.  

Answer 13

Or just eat half and enjoy it. Or not.  

Answer 14

Eat half of a half.  

Answer 15

I tell coworkers that I don’t like bagels or donuts, which is half true. Do I like the taste? Yes! Do I like the way I feel after eating them? Not at all. Then I don’t feel pressure to partake.  

Answer 16

Ny bagels are 20 points before you even put anything on them  we talk about them at meetings all the time. My jobs getting bagels today to. As much as I love them I’ll grab my 2 ingredient 3 point bagel and enjoy it

Comments

@impressible Are they really hopefully nj bagels are not 20

Answer 17

What about making the skinny taste bagels. Google the recipe

Answer 18

I agree with so many that said here is your time to make a plan. Do you really want the bagel or not? If you want it make a second plan: 1/2 with a little cream cheese and jelly(my fav) or whole plain. Plan the rest of your day around it.  

Answer 19

Eat a good breakfast with protein before you get it to work. It’ll be easier to say, no thanks, to the bagels.  

Answer 20

Make your own with 2 point dough , take them with you . My co workers don’t even try to get me to eat junk any more , I’ve turned it down too many times .  

Answer 21

Make a 2 ingredient bagel at home and bring it with you. Or have a bagel and eat mostly zero point food during the day.  

Answer 22

If you slice the crust about 1/4 -1/2 inch from top and bottom you can eat the bagel and count it for about 3 pts just be careful with the rest of your choices for the day

Answer 23

Half scoop it out

Answer 24

Scooping works.  

Answer 25

Sounds like a positive plan.  

Answer 26

Nine pounds. lol. Yes that could be true. Having a plan is always a good way to go.  

Answer 27

I didn’t realize a bagel was that many points!
