Thu, February 7, 2008 - 5:55 PMDoing just OK here, not fabulous. I'm totally going over my points almost daily, but possible little enough that I'll stay within my extra allotted points.
I do great all day long and then at dinner/after dinner I kind of stop counting points but still try to be 'good'. I don't know why I'm doing it exactly ....rebellion? laziness...hunger...fear of not getting enough...whatever it is, it probably won't be a big loss this week. -

Thu, February 7, 2008 - 6:15 PMI lowered my daily points by 5 so that when I go over (pretty much every day) it's like I'm still staying in my points and I don't use all my flex points. -

Fri, February 8, 2008 - 1:07 PMWell, I am in my 5th week and down 11lbs. I have well now, 40 points a day and most days I have a hard time even getting to 40. Some days I go a little over though. Last night was one, we bought Papa Murphy's "'garlic-chicken-bacon-artichoke" de-lite. Not really all that bad points-wise, I just had about 5 slices :-(
I really love micro-popcorn and the 94% fat-free is just "palatable" enough to eat when I want a snack!! That has been my diet hero plus it is just salty enough to make me thirsty so I want to drink some water!!! Sometimes diet Dr Pepper or Coke Zero too. Kind of a double whammy! MMMMM Cherry Coke Zero allllggggg....
That last part was supposed to sound like Homer Simpson. :-p -

OK, for all you microwave popcorn fans, I just have to post this info. You can be irritated at me, I don't mind. It used to be a favorite of mine, but now I air pop and spray with I can't believe it's not butter.

Fri, February 8, 2008 - 4:40 PMOk, let me say for the record that I LOVE Dr. Mercola's site. Teflon is a nasty thing. I used to work in a lab where we worked with that and it was one of those "Don't be around it too much" items.
We've got an air popper and I love it just because we never burn popcorn now.

Fri, February 8, 2008 - 3:16 PMThat's smart. It's all a big mind screw anyways...for me, the ability to lose weight just entails a mental adjustment...regularly. -
