Realistically, how many veggies per day?

I think the biggest mistake that Weight Watchers made with smart points was getting rid of the good health guidelines. It's only too many vegetables when it's at the expense of a balanced diet. You could definitely use more healthy fat and some dairy in there

Here is a better way to ask.....if I eat all my points on top of what I've eaten so far, was that too many veggies?

I'm with 100 on preplanning and tracking my day so I know where I fall short or need to modify. The real question is how to you feel eating that many veggies? If you are stuffed and can't balance out your day, then yes it is too much. If not, go for it. I generally have 7-9 veggie servings a day. A serving is only 1/2 cup except for leafy greens which are 1 cup per serving. Let your weight loss be your guide.

borntexan - I suffer from IBS-C too. And I am lactose intolerant, but I can tolerate yogurt and hard cheese.

This is part of the reason that I also count my calories in MyFitnessPal. In fact, I plugged your day's calories into MFP. They total 688 calories which isn't enough for most of us.

I don't think you are eating too much veggies necessarily as that you aren't eating enough for long term eating. I might be able to eat what you ate occasionally, but it would be a problem for me long term.

On specifics. Your chicken breasts are fine but maybe more protein in the morning. I don't see the point of the light sour cream. you don't have a need to cut fat. Your day was only 20g of fat which is really low. While WW wants you to limit saturated fat and penalizes it in their formula they don't penalize other forms of fat. I agree about adding in more fat overall.

This was super low in carbs - 54 g as I calcualte it mostly because you don't have any grains. This also results in a low fiber day. You total 8g of fiber even with all your veggies. I try to get in more than 20 and am often close to 30. I don't mind the low carbs per se. I have days that I eat less than 60g of carbs, but I mostly average closer to 100g. Some people do need to limit carbs but most people can eat whole grains. I rarely eat potatoes but I do eat whole grain breads, brown rice and whole grain pasts. You could put that pasta and some of those veggies on some whole wheat pasta and add in some protein.

While cheese adds some saturated fat you could add in cheese to your lunch for example.

But really the biggest problem here is that you aren't eating enough calories for long term eating and that is reflected in the fact that you are at only 15 daily points.
