🔵 I am also tracking on WW PersonalPoints just to show you the difference – I would get 21pts/day but since I don’t eat sugar free or most fat free products (food additive intolerances), points based plans don’t usually work well for me. This will be an interesting experiment.

I needed to increase my calories and fat totals for the day, so I decided to make a cheese sauce with heavy cream and add cream cheese (normal full fat) with my potatoes. WW is not set up to utilize those things and will ding you very heavily for them.

If you want lower points – change the dairy items to whatever alternative you like and use on your plan.
