[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 647432, member: 4152"] I agree totally about getting in the habit of planning your meals. When husband and I did WW together, we did that. And I often made a WW dinner from a recipe from one of the cookbooks. There is one chicken recipe we still make often. Now I'm basically just using my calorie counting APP and watching carefully that I avoid sugar and other non nutritious foods, etc. And I've had very good luck with putting in what I'm going to eat one day ahead of time. I can see where a portion is too large, or if I want a special meal for dinner, then I'm going to have to go lighter for lunch. I rarely make double (or multiple) portions, although I know this works very well for some folks. The reason is that my self control seems to be NIL. If I get over hungry and I know I have leftover dinner in the fridge, I just might eat it. What I have are one or two Amy's TV dinners around 320 calories each and if I messed up and it's dinner time and I'm over hungry, I can eat that instead of ordering a pizza or just over eating because it took me too long to cook and now I'm crazy hungry and ate three portions of something. It's my emergency food. [/QUOTE]
