Just a quick update reporting yesterday's success. My menu was similar to the ones I've been following since Wed. when I decided to county my points. But then after dinner, Kim and I went to the movies. I didn't have time to pop a bag of popcorn to bring with. We didn't have any snacks during the movie, we stopped at Dunkin Donuts after and I got a coffee to bring home. Yes, I can drink coffee at nite and it does not keep me up! I had what has been my nitetime treat while computing last nite. With my coffee, a Chex bar (2), popcorn (1), and 4 Twizzlers (3). So I stayed within my 21 points for the day once again!

I feel good, maybe the scale will move.

But now the weekend is here. I'm thinking of doing a variety of points for the week, adding up to my weekly total. Sort of like the Wendie plan, or Lyn's plan. Lyn is doing it monthly, based on her monthly bank of calories. (escapefromobesity). I would do it weekly, based on my flex points. That way, I could adjust for the weekends. We'll see, I haven't figured it out yet, but I haven't gone into my 35 extra points for the week, yet.
So far today I had:
Breakfast: 1 cup Cheerios, 1/2 cup Fiber One, 1/2 cup skim milk, 1 1/2 cup strawberries. That's a total of 4 points.
Later!

  1. you are doing good! I like that you are thinking of the Wendie plan and the other journaler's plan too (not familiar with her but it sounds like a good plan - Lyn's plan).

    keep up the good work and enjoy the weekend :)
