to germangirl - you had a question about mixed reviews on eating all of your points or not. you are supposed to eat all of your points - so if youre alloted 25, you eat 25. then you get 10 (i think in never use mine) flex points (extra ones) per week that you can use if you want to go over a little each day or eat out at a restaurant or something. the points are calculated so that you eat the right amount to lose weight. sometimes the points number can seem higher than what you need to eat - i had that problem when i started, but theres many different types of foods you can eat that are higher in pts to get you to the number without stuffing yourself with junk its a learning curve, and we're here to help!!

edit: NOT 10 flex pts, its 35. i lied. (thanks cara)

I plan to do Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred

Points: 12.5
Target: 24

I find sometimes I  have a hard time hittinig my target.  The last few weeks,, I ahve been working the early am shift.  I start my day at 3 am.  I find I end up eating most of my points before I got to bed which is around 4 pm, trying to stop that, but I don't have access to a microwave during the work day so I usually pack a light lunch.  When I am off work, the points aren't a problem at all, just trying to find the balance.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Tuesday WW Accountability : Good morning! Did WW change their program again? I know they tweak often, I heard something about them going back to daily ranges.  Did they do that and lower the weekly flex points? Did they add in banking points again?   The program that I use has the firm daily point target and 35 weekly flex points
Posted by caraellen23[/QUOTE]


hhaha no it has not changed.  i was just TOTALLY wrong. i dont even know where i came up with ten. wow. LOL

35 flex pts is correct. i just never use my flex points so 10 was the first number that popped into my head. wow todays going to be fun at work hahah

Morning!  I had frozen custard last night after a dinner of 3 margaritas and some nachos.  I knew I'd have a hard time getting back on track after the honeymoon, especially without the pressure of "the dress" but I'm really disappointed in myself and feeling generally down on myself.  I've now gained 12 lbs since the honeymoon (from which I came back lighter!).  I need to find my focus and motivation as well as a routine.  All of those seem really hard to come by right now.  Is anyone else that just got married feeling this way?  But today is another day.  So here goes.

B: smoothie (5)
L: pasta with veggies and shrimp (5)
S: cherries (2)
pork tenderloin (6) with veggies (0)

Total: 18
Target: 21

E: skipped Plyometrics X this morning out general lethargy.  I need to at least get in a walk this evening with DH.

Hey!

I'm proud of myself - I had the biggest salad known to man last night - and only half a panini instead of the whole.  I'd gotten away from listening to my stomach and stopping when I was full; I'm re-learning that.

Brunch: Smart Ones chicken/broccoli/pasta alfredo (5); water (0)

snack: 8 oz. 1% milk (2); TBD

other half of the panini (7-10 - I'm not sure; it's from a mom & pop pizza place.I just eyeballed.); probably some melon & a salad w/ 2 tbs. vinaigrette

Total: 16-19

Target: 22
