Today was my recommitment day. So I got out all my essentials that I've been neglecting the last few months. Something as simple as my WW water jug, the easiest thing to use and I wasn't doing it. So out came all the goodies, scale, water jug, calculator and of course my week 1 book. I took the test to find out my exact points again. To my amazement its 28pts and I was aiming for 25-26pts for so long. Aiming is the key word hear as I never counted the many BLT's (bites, licks and tastes) or the finishing off of my girlies meals...shh! But I'm trying this week, I have some goals that I want to get to for Christmas and I plan on getting there.
Breakfast
1cup oatmeal with cinnamon 2
coffee 3
Lunch
homemade soup 4
pear 2
Snack
3 clementines 1
Dinner
low fat turkey chili: turkey 3
beans 2cheese 2
1/2 cup brown rice 3
Snack
light hot chocolate 1
gingersnaps 3
almonds 4
Total 30
Activity taught Bodypump +4
So pretty good, I ate 2 of my Activity points, which is what I would aim for eating half earned and no more than 4.
I broke out my WW scale and weighed my fruit, this was something that we talked about at our meeting 2 weeks ago. Fruit and how many points it can add up to be. One lady said she had an apple that was 4pts! I was surprised, she said it was a huge apple but I normally just count 1pt per fruit however much I eat. To my surprise my apple last week was 2pts and my pear today was 2pts. I know that fruit is good for you but say I have an apple and pear a day, adding an extra 2pts that I'm not counting, it does add up eventually.
Off to plan for tomorrow.

Yeah that is awesome! I am proud of you dusting off all of your goodies to play with!
Way to go, Sarah!!! Knowing that we have to recommit isn't a fun feeling, but actually doing it sure can feel awesome, can't it?
That's great, Sarah!!
You can do it!!!
Sooo many of us are getting back on track. Feels great!
Yayy!!! Yup we definitely need the "gear" don't we! lol
Honestly, I count most fruit to be 1 other than banana. Although if I end up with a ginormous honeycrisp, I would consider counting it at two if the rest of the day was "rounded" and a point may have gotten lost somewhere. Know what I mean? I believe in sticking to my points, but I also believe in being reasonable about stuff like that too. I'd never exchange a 2 point apple for a 1 point chocolate kind of thing.
Yay you're all set!
Yay for recommittment! You are off to a great start!
haha - now I know where those extra pounds have come from - my fruit is too big! HAHA
I would never have thought to weigh my fruit!
