Woo Hoo

Jumped out of bed this morning(this never happens) because I 'knew' it was going to be a great Wi and guess what it was!!!!!
Lost 3 lbs this week--(18 total) I think because I had many high days this jump started my body into losing more ( my own accidental wendie plan!!!- funny thing was i was going to do wendie plan this week--guess I dont need to now)
Hopefully this Monday--that would be 8 weeks-- I will hit 20 lbs---10 lbs a month would def keep me happy!!!
Happy Monday to all!!!

Re: Woo Hoo

The Wendie Plan--basically it is a modified points plan-- it allows you to eat your points (21 meals) in a different way so that each week you have a high point day that jumpstarts your metabolism--most people try this when they hit a plateau-- I was going to do it this current week but accidentally did it last week and it def helped--
Wendie Plan Info
This page describes it really well-- it was just recently written up in Woman's World magazine-- for those that follow it swear by it-- So far I am on target for this week so if I end up doing it I will let you know how it goes--

Re: Woo Hoo

I am going to try the Wendie Plan - I have plateaued but it is because I have been eating like crap and not journaling. They say to only try Wendie when nothing else works but I am going to try it and see what happens. I, too, have noticed that when I eat big one day and stay on points the other days, I lose. Plus the big points day leaves something to look forward to. 27 points a day gets reallllllll monotonous.

Re: Woo Hoo

Thank you so much for sharing that with us! I had never heard of the Wendie plan before. It makes sense!

Re: Woo Hoo

I am toward the end of my first Wendie Plan week-- I WI on Monday morning-- I like that I dont have to stick to the same points each day-- I moved my High point day to Tues instead of Thur since we went to a hockey game-- Keep in mind that if you follow the points that are listed for your range that you arent eating the top #..
For instance if you are at 29 top points per day--that is 203 points per week(21 meals @ 29 points) but the plan accounts for 195 points--so you have some wiggle room-- Does that make sense?
Can't wait for WI to see if it worked
