Meeting Topic 12/14-12/20

"Fend Off Food Pushers!"

Meeting Topic 12/14-12/20

Protect your plate! This week in meetings, we'll talk about how to ensure that your choices are truly your own.

Haven't be able to make a meeting yet this week? You still have time! And you won't want to miss this great topic.

"Is This Food Worthy of Me?"
Being choosy about what you eat is just one way to take care of yourself — which is a key element in successful weight loss!

This Week in Meetings: "Make a Losing List!"
Topic: Nov. 30th - Dec. 6th

Why do you want to lose weight? The more answers you have, the stronger your motivation can be.

When you need to get stuff done, writing a to-do list can help. And when sticking to that to-do list becomes a little harder, writing a "why" list can be just the fix. That’s because the more reasons you have to do something — whether it’s reorganizing your closet or sticking with healthy behaviors — the more likely you are to follow through with the task. It's like a benign pile-on that makes resistance pretty much futile. Keep an actual list of these reasons on hand to go over whenever you feel your motivation dipping. It can be the jolt of enthusiasm you need to refocus on your goals.

Turkey, Apple and Blue Cheese Wrap, PPV = 7

Dry, leftover Thanksgiving turkey sandwiches are a thing of the past. This wrap boasts juicy apples, peppery arugula and a blue cheese-spiked cream cheese spread. #ServeItUpSaturday

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp blue cheese, softened   
1 Tbsp fat-free cream cheese, softened   
1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground (or to taste)   
1 medium whole wheat tortilla(s), warmed according to package directions   
1/2 cup(s) arugula, baby leaves   
1/2 medium fresh apple(s), diced   
2 oz cooked light meat turkey chopped or diced   

Instructions:
In a small cup, mash together blue cheese, cream cheese and pepper with a fork; spread onto tortilla. Top tortilla with arugula, apple and turkey, leaving about 1-inch of space from edges; tuck in sides of tortilla and then roll it up tightly (slice in half, if desired). Yields 1 wrap per serving.

Notes:
Sprinkle arugula with lemon juice or toss with you favorite light vinaigrette, if desired (could affect PointsPlus value).
