Trying to stay within points..........
| Wed, 10-29-2003 - 12:50pm |
This is so hard, staying on points. I need to do this, and I want to lose this weight. But man what a struggle. I have 20 points for the day, and I was curious to hear from you ladies who are also following WW. What do you guys eat on a average day? You can email me if you want to instead of posting here. I think I will post over at the WW board and see if anyone can give me some suggestions.

Hey, Deb! I did go to WW yesterday and I like the idea of the flex points. It is almost impossible to stay within the 20 points unless I stay out most of the day. Do use your flex points. You can either save them for a busy weekend or take up to 5 a day to spread them out for the week.
I am bad, I know, but, I don't eat breakfast until 11 or later. I am just not hungry in the morning and I actually get hungrier if I do have breakfast. So, I eat later, or carry fruit with me if I go out early.
I am finding that eating real 100% whole wheat bread is keeping me full longer. The leader suggested not eating light breads and eat something more substantial. I use egg substitutes a lot for breakfast and eat big salad before dinner or make it my dinner with some protein added. I have to have the foods that are good for me (and the family) in the house to help me stay on track.
So...let's do a salad for lunch soon and review how to get through this. Hang in there! I am so determined to do it this time.

I'm finding that good protein (like salmon) along with cooked & raw vegetables and fruits are what keep me sated during the day. I also love to eat yogurt. Also, try to sprinkle some almonds or walnuts on your salad (if you care for nuts on your salad).
Hope things get better,

I agree, it is hard to stay within the point range.
