Today's Dr. Oz Show continued the partnership with Weight Watchers and the combined Transformation Nation program. It focused on the four hurdles that many people 40 and older face when losing weight:

  1. A slowing metabolism
  2. Battling hunger hormones
  3. Loss of muscle tone
  4. Taming the sweet tooth

For the second hurdle, Oz and Weight Watchers leader Liz Josephsberg suggested something that has been a favorite of Weight Watchers members for decades -- its Garden Vegetable Soup.

Garden Vegetable Soup

(Makes 6 servings)

  • 1/2 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1/4 cup onions, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 cups fat-free beef, chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup green cabbage, diced
  • 1 cup spinach, chopped
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup zucchini, diced

Spray a large saucepan with nonstick cooking spray, and heat. Place carrot, onion and garlic in saucepan. Saut vegetables over low heat for 5 minutes, until softened. Add broth, cabbage, spinach, tomato paste, basil, oregano and salt. A fat burning overview can help you produce a clear describe of what you need to focus on to carry out your fat reduction objective if you're a starter; or serve as a reminder for these who are at an intermediate or more advance phase of their losing weight strategy. Applying are seven steps that can serve as suggestions for your special weight loss system. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same. Many weight loss applications have tricked people into wondering that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss plans only work by causing a person's body to burn more muscle tissue and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. Bring saucepan to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Stir in zucchini, and cook 3-4 minutes.

Weight Watchers PointsPlus Value: 1

For the sweet tooth, there are a few options -- a Mixed Berry Crumble, a Strawberry-Mango Smoothie, and this one, for Chocolate-Banana Wontons, which is simple, chocolatey and low in PointsPlus values:

Chocolate-Banana Wontons

(Makes 6 servings)

  • 2 servings butter-flavor cooking spray
  • 1 large banana, diced
  • 6 tbsp mini chocolate chips
  • 24 wonton wrappers (half of 12 oz package)
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine banana and chocolate chips, and mix gently. Place wonton wrappers on flat surface. Drop teaspoonfuls of banana mixture onto center of each wrapper. Moisten edges of each wrapper with wet fingers, and fold over one corner to make a triangle and press sides together to seal. Transfer filled wrappers to prepared baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes, until wontons are golden brown. Sift powdered sugar over wontons before serving. Yields 4 wontons per serving.

Weight Watchers PointsPlus Value: 5
