1. Is there a non-fat butter type spread? If so, what is its brand
name? I can't find anything locally except 'Lite' which is too high.
In this line how does one stir fry without oil? I suppose I
could waste a point for a tps of oil (peanut) but I would rather
hoard points.

I use cooking spray in a nonstick wok or pan.



Use one of your required healthy oils (peanut is NOT on the list). If the
oil in your diet goes too low, your hair may get brittle and fall out, your
nails may get brittle, your bowel movements may be poor, and your skin may
be dry and inelastic (i.e. won't shrink well as you lose weight).

2. I understand that a boiled spud is better for a WW dieter than a
'nuked' spud. Is this true?
I weigh my raw spud and then nuke it.
It usually loses about 10 percent weight after nuking.
I then take the 'nuked' spud and divide it so there are no parts more
than 4 ozs. I figure this is about the 3 point area. Am I correct?
I would be willing to pressure cook a whole batch of spuds and use
them this way. Would this be better? Whatever I'm
doing it is working. Thank God.


No there is no difference between a nuked spud or a boiled one. It's about
how much potato you eat.
