I have been in this situation many times. It's still early in the day and I have few or zero points left. The first thing I do is stay calm. There is really no need to panic. WW offers so many choices, and so much great information on zero point foods, that you can easily get completely filled up just by knowing what to do.

So here are my tips and tricks…

Drink water – lots and lots of water.

Move – walk around the block, do some yoga, go to the Y for a swim, anything you can do to get a few more points.

Eat – yes, that's right. Just concentrate on zero point foods.

1. Make a HUGE salad with every kind of veggie or fruit you can image. Use fresh lemon, lime or pineapple juice and you will find you don't need any dressing.
2. Cook up a huge pot of pinto beans in your Instant Pot (so they're fast). Eat them with a salad, scramble some eggs or add white meat turkey or chicken for a nice, hearty meal.
3. Make 3 minute hard boiled eggs in your Instant Pot. I have these often, fast, easy and 0 points – what more can a girl ask?
4. Scramble a few eggs and throw in any veggie you like eg: broccoli, tomato, mushroom, etc. Have fun with it and be creative.
5. Load a plate of lettuce with beans, white meat chicken, fresh steamed broccoli, cilantro, salsa and squeeze fresh lime over the top – delicious
