Weight Watchers

So today is my first day back on the WW track. I get 24 daily points and 35 extra points a week.

I have found that I have 2 things to work on:

1. I don't eat throughout the day. I just ate my lunch at 1pm and did not have anything before that since last night's dinner. Especially during the work week, if I don't eat first thing before I get started, I just lose track of time.

2. Portion control. I really have a distorted perception of portion size. I need to be diligent about measuring and counting until I can do it out of habit.

But I am excited about having a plan - I know this works. Bridget and I lost a good amount of weight on it a few years ago. This plus getting back into some daily activity will be good for me!

    Almost all Americans have a distorted perception of portion size. That's why they see plates from the finer establishments & say there's no way they'd pay that much for that little. You're starting well - keep it up!
