Weight Watchers

Today is Day 5 for me.

I really love the new program. I obviously cannot give an accurate review as far as comparing it to the way the program was previously, but I can tell you this much: kudos to WW for making all fruits and veggies ZERO points. The few times I tried the program, I would always forgo my fruits and veggies because I didn't want to use up my precious points on anything but carbs & protein - a no-no, I know. But now I feel as though I can have it all. Also, I love that the carb count is now taken into consideration. So double kudos to WW for having the chutzpah to make these changes and to keep up with the ever-evolving world of nutrition.

This week has been flawless, except for day 3, when I unexpectedly found myself at a fast food restaurant for dinner when I only had 5 points left for the day. And of course, instead of having a salad, I had a 17-point chicken sandwich (I obviously didn't know it was a whopping 17 points until after I had swallowed every last bite of it's delicious goodness). But I suppose this is also the beauty of WW - there are those additional 49 flex points I can use up during any given week. So despite my Day 3 slip up, I am still on plan and I still have 30 flex points left to use if I need them.

So cheers to a successful 4 days, and onwards to the remaining 3 days of this week!
