Week 10 Back - Whittled a Little More Off
Lost 0.6 this week for a total 8.2 lbs.
I did notice something about myself this week...something I've known and yet still fall into the trap of doing. I get so caught up in my busy schedule and so worried about losing that I so militantly guard my points that I rely too much on processed packaged food (like the 100 cal things, lean cuisine meals, frozen waffles, granola bars, rice krispie treats) and have too many of them over a course of the day rather than taking the time to cook something real and incorporate more fruits and veggies. I ALWAYS do better when I cook and eat lots of produce. This week I did my same old point hoarding and processed food behavior that I KNOW doesn't work and had a little loss. Basically I was lazy. Whenever I eat healthy and take the time to cook I do far better. So this week I resolve to cook more and get more produce eaten! Happy healthy weeks to you all! Melissa in NJ |

Good job on the loss. A loss is a loss any day.
How about working toward being more Core oriented? I do better myself when I limit the processed foods. Also, my leader says that we should limit our intake of cakey/cookie type of treats to 2 points per day. That forces us to eat fruits & veggies as snacks. "Melissa in NJ" wrote in message oups.com...

limit the processed foods. Haha lemme tell you about Melissa on core. Week 1 - Do GREAT! Follow the plan religiously...lose nice weight. Week 2 - Do okay on the plan. Lose some. Week 3 - Rather than eating one pudding I eat all four servings because i have no self control! - Gain weight! I need the regimentation of the flex plan and points. I get too slopppy and care free on core. I need the accountability. Melissa |

It's the same for me too. I am really trying to stay away from
processed food. Audrey "Melissa in NJ" wrote in message oups.com... Lost 0.6 this week for a total 8.2 lbs.

What I meant by "core oriented" was to follow points but try and eat off of the core list of foods. It rids your system of chemicals and sugars that cause cravings. It is also a lot healthier. |

Hello Melissa,
I don't think we've ever posted back and forth to each other - so HELLO!!! I see you are an active poster in this group! Very good. I'm sure you contributions are appreciated. I too have a problem with CORE. I feel great on it, but it gives me a license to over-eat I've decided to try the "Eddie-Plan".......hehehehe........nothing magic here.....I've been trying to do FLEX but only eat CORE foods and it seems to be working well and I feel great. Hang in there........Cooking really good food can be enjoyable. Hope you have a great week!

learning is a big part of the success, have you considered core to get away
from the processed stuff, many at my meetings do this, core doesn't work for me but for some it is a wonder, Lee Melissa in NJ wrote in message oups.com... Lost 0.6 this week for a total 8.2 lbs.
