The OFFICIAL WW Buddies Thread: Thursday, November 4 (Day 1)

I know it will not be so easy for me to get back on track until Monday since I have a wedding on Friday, but I will definitely try! I will post tomorrow. I am so glad that many of you replied since I had been doing so well, I can really use a strong support to make sure I get back on track before too much damage is done

i'm in. had cereal today. the cereal with milk is points. during the day, i munch on pretzels. Its low in points...on 2 points.

Going to the gym is hard but work. The key is exercise. I didn't believe it until now. Since I've been going to the gym, I'm seeing a difference.

i totally agree, happy. diet is only half the equation... i was down 15lbs last year, doing ww and training for a marathon. now i've been having hip problems and haven't been able to work out. combined with eating whatever i want... i have gained some weight back. and i need to get back on track before i spiral out of control!

so i'm happy about this thread

Well, in the spirit of getting serious about this, I got a salad for lunch today.

No dressing, no fatty add-ins, a real salad.

I got to my desk, opened the bag, and found a roll right there, next to my salad!

I'm trying to rationalize this. I ate half of the roll and I can't bear to throw the other half out.

Anyone know how many points are in a dinner roll?

Re: The OFFICIAL WW Buddies Thread

A dinner roll is supposed to be 3 points, but I would count it higher depending on the size . . .

Re: The OFFICIAL WW Buddies Thread

Breakfast: WW Bagel -3 points
2 tablespoons light CC- 2 pts

total 5

Lunch: 3 Wasa Light Crisp Crackers - 1 point
2 Laughing cow light triangles - 2 points
1 baby bell light cheese - 1 point

total 4

snack: (I know - REAL healthy- I need to get the halloween candy out of the classroom!!!

2 Tootsie Roll midgees- 1 point
2 mini rolls of smarties- 2 points

total 3

DINNER BALANCE: 8 points

Editted to add dinner (OMG- bad day in terms of food choices, not points)

I had a class tonight so I ended up eating too many pretzels (24 for 2 points I had around 48)

So,

Pretzels - 4 points
fat free Jello Pudding cup (devils food)- 2 points
2 Tbsp light whipped cream - 1 point
