[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 576745, member: 2211"] Hello CA. Listen to me on this. I will be a WW alumni for one year in June. I have lost 20 lbs. Some weeks I lost 3 lbs, some 2 lbs, but most around one pound. Some weeks I gained. The numbers will fluctuate-DO NOT let this discourage you. My advice to you in regards to WW is to A) attend the meetings, no matter what, and B) use your tracker. I use the tracker app on my iPhone and it's been very effective. There are a TON of foods you can eat. You shouldn't be eating McDonald's anyway...or subway. And if you do eat subway, eat the veggie delight, it's only 6 points! Snack smarter, make soups and stews, watch your portions. If you are a snacker and like chips, buy the WW ships at the meeting and and Oh so Nuts bars are great to have on hand if you're late for a meal or on the go...keep them in your purse or glovebox. Watch your alcohol intake but, above all, do not deprive yourself of the things you love. Along with your 26 points you also get 49 weekly points...USE them if you need to! Do not skip meals and switch out white carb foods for healthy green or orange foods. Instead of regular potatoes, have a half of a sweet potato. Instead of French fries, have a side salad. Instead of a burger on a bun, have a grilled piece of chicken without the bun. Hebrew National sells 99% fat free hot dogs...I eat those instead of regular hot dogs with a half cup of baked beans, way less points. And lots of pickles, zero points! Look through the material and Figure out ways to change up your menus so you can be successful. WW is fun and a real self esteem booster. I hope you have a good leader. If not, look for another meeting! Xo, best of luck! [/QUOTE]
