ProPoints From binge eating to a 58 pound weight loss

[Jaly]

Hey! Just read through your diary! It looks fab

Personally, I calorie count as well as point watch to ensure I don't go under 1250cal/day as an absolute minimum x I've used upto half my weeklies then only 16 and my weight loss was the same both weeks, my aunt used every single one of her weeklies and still lost so it depends on the individual, personally, they're more of an emergency so I don't feel guilty for a takeaway or starve myself to be allowed a treat in the evening every so often xx

Ok so here is my food plan for today. I seem to be struggling with the 26 points. Only reach 20 points. At least i will have something to mess around with but i think i should be full enough with the following menu. Its all healthy foods and there is quite a lot to keep me from feeling hungry so i dont know how to spend the remaining 6 points. Will see tonight.

Menu:
16 ml water (0 Points)

Breakfast: Gluten Free Buckwheat Flakes (3 Points)
16 ml Black Tea (0 Points)

16 ml Hot water (0 Points)

Snack: Gluten Free High fibre Crackerbread (x2) (1 point)
16ml black Tea (0 point)

Lunch: Rice Cakes (x2) (2 point)
Low fat cheese (2 point)
Tomatoe (0 point)
Onion (0 point)
Lettuce (0 point)
Boiled egg (3 points)
16 ml black Tea (0 point)

16 ml Water (0 point)

Snack 5g Gluten free cereal (1 point)
16 ml hot water (0 point)

16 ml water (0 point)

Dinner: Salad with Baked potatoe:
Lettuce (0 point)
Tomatoe (0 point)
Onion (0 point)
Peppers (0 point)
1.5 oz Roast Chicken (2 point)
Baked potatoe (3 points)
Mayonnais low fat (1 point)
16 ml cold water (0 point)

Snack: Irish diet yogurt (2 points)

All of the above only comes to 20/26 points. Help ! Its seems like i am eating good and health do i really need to add in something else of 6 points if i am not hungry??

Hey just reading ur diary. What size is ur baked pot? Only 3pp seems so low. X

Hi Kerry,

I hadnt got access to my weighing scales when i was having dinner but look it up in the book and it said 3 propoints for 150 g. Thought this would be the average size of a standard potatoe. Sure a standard potaoe probable weighs higher Must weigh it when i get home. Thanks for pointing this out to me. At least it will push my propoints nearer to the 26 point mark.

How are you finding the weight watchers?

Ok all here is an update on how i got on yesterday with my weekly goals

- Cut out processed foods which are full of salt and sugar: Avoided salty foods. however, I had baked beans which is a processed food but I had the ones with no added sugar, which in my opinon are way healthier.

- Bring healthy packed lunches to work: Brought all my healthy lunch and snacks with me to work. Brought no money which will guarantee no vending machine

- Try and get out for a walk at lunch time weather permitting: Got out for a 40 min walk at lunch. Weather was good and dry which makes a change

- Get to the gym for a good workout thursday evening before weigh in day: Planning to go to the gym after dinner tonight for my last chance workout before weigh in tomorrow.

- Stick within my 26 propoints: Achieved with a struggle but will get used to it eventually
