weigh in
Awful, awful, awful weigh in last night. I know, it was my own damn fault to quote Jimmy Buffet, but still. So. I'm going back to what I know works, and what I know I can live with. Years ago, WW had a program they called "Core". I loved it. You didn't have to track nor did you have to count points. There was a list of foods you could "eat until satisfaction". Whole grains, fruits, veggies, lean meats and fat free dairy products. Then they changed the program, and "Core" became "simply filling" and they didn't talk about it much anymore. Then they introduced the points plus program and they really didn't talk about this method. It still exists, but you have to ask for the guidelines. They are given with the basic program but they are buried somewhere in the middle of the booklet. This simply filling program includes the "power foods", whole grains, fruits, veggies, lean meats and fat free dairy, but also includes some bread products as well. Which means that I can eat a sandwich, and not have to count bread toward my weekly bonus. I still get those weekly "extras" for things that aren't power foods, and that really makes the program livable, but I do not have to count every single thing that I put into my mouth! So, I'm going to work on sticking to "core" and try to move more. I can't keep doing this. Urghhhhh!
