VICKIE..... ?

[MummyToAmberx]

i personally think 4.5 for packet of crisps is high i can have a filling meal for that.

 

[Eoz]

velvets? Are they cheese n onion flavour?

 

[TTC LADY]

I'm on day 3 of WW and have to eat 18 points each day.,so far I've consumed 16, 17 and 17 each day. I weigh in on Sunday and hope the scales have moved, even 1lb loss would motivate me that this works.

However it doesn't seem like I'm eating anything different or smaller portions, so am a little sceptical about this points thing, as surely one cannot eat 18 points of junk like chocolate and crisps etc and still expect to loose weight.

But then there are lots of examples in this thread which show it does work.

So we'll see how it goes on Sunday am when I WI.

Hey everyone...

Im thinking of doing WW even though i cant seem to stick to anything at the moment EVER...

I did Slimming world for about 2 years and lost the 2 stone... but iv now put it all back on cuz im a pig! LOL .. and i just genrally OVER EAT! ..

I need to lose about 40 ISH pounds to be happy ...

Just thought I would ask you girlies some questions as i thought myabe if i start a total diff diet it may seem like a challenge! ..HOPE !! LOL ..

Is it hard? Do you find you eat enough with your points? are there many items that are point free? Like finger food that you can take to work and pick at all day? I like all the WW products so i can eat them all ok
also .. my oh likes having chinese alot! from a take away .. I looked up chicken chow main as its usually the one with the least fat and it said its only 7 points? is that true.. i thought it would be much higher... I also looked up Mcdonalds and it said a double cheese burger is 10 points... it seems very low in points for junk food?!

I started at 31 points and am now down to 23, some days I find it harder to others to stick to my points, depending on what I'm having for dinner really but generally I do stay on target

I think what is important to remember that although 10 points might seem low for a double cheeseburger that's over 1/3 of your allotted points and how much will it really fill you up? For me it wouldn't fill me up much at all and I'd be hungry again fairly quickly.

You do have to watch what you eat so that you eat more filling foods/healthier foods.

As someone else said I tend to view it more as a lifestyle change--learning better eating habits and how to make better choices.

Good luck!
