Slimmer will get there!

[slimmer will get there]

Hi all,

I am starting Weight Watchers today! I am going to go to weigh in once the weather clears up because I don't drive and is very cold and slippy out there!

But I wanted to get started ASAP and think if I write a diary then it will be better.

So, I'm quite surprised how much you can fit in with all the points! As long as I can steer clear of the choc and crisps I will be fine!

I don't know whether to allow myself treats in the house or not. In some ways I think if it is in the house it might be better as I won't think of it as something that I'm really not allowed, but something that I can have sometimes. It seems like a silly thing to need to ponder but it is my real weak point!

Anyway... Today's menu:

Breakfast
Low Fat Yoghurt 1
Satsuma x 2 0.5

Lunch
Weight Watchers Bread 2
Veg Soup 1
Grapes 1.5
Low Fat Yoghurt 1
Low Fat Soft Cheese 1.5

Dinner
Pitta 2
Tomato 0
Jacket Potato 2.5
Mayonnaise 2
Sweetcorn 0.5
Low fat spread 0.5
Satsuma x 2 0.5
Hot chocolate 0.5

Altogether 19 points so far.

Am going to go to the gym tomorrow morning. I got myself up this morning and it was closed ANNOYING!!! So I will definitely be going tomorrow. I don't know what I will do about my activity points I think I might just leave them as I want to lose as much as possible. But then I guess it would be nice to have a treat when I go... i.e. a small choc bar every time I go to the gym.

I will see anyway. If anyone has any comments advice it will be gladly appreciated.

Bye for now x

Hi slimmer.
Just wondered how you are getting on for the first week.
You were saying about the treats in your house....personally I get rid of everything because past habits have had me raiding the cupboard when its there. Until i get myself into a different way of thinking, i'm just going to leave it at the supermarket.
With the activity points, thats also a personal choice but i dont count them towards my allowance on the basis of you want more calories going out that going in.
Good luck to you. When are you weighing in?
