Tough-because-I'm-starving-Tuesday!

Morning Ladies

I am finding the new WW Propoints plan mentally tough, LOL! I'm not sure why, but I constantly feel scared to eat anything for fear of using up my points! Perhaps a week on the new regime will mean I can judge exactly how strict you have to be, and how many of your 'treat' points you can actually use and still lose weight IYKWIM? I just cannot face a week of STS at the moment as I worry I'll lose my mojo : ) So as a consequence I'm SO hungry!!!

So far today (allowance is 31 points):

Breakfast = 1 slice of toast with spread and a boiled egg, cup of tea with skim milk allowance (6)

Snack = 2 large marmite rice cakes (2)

Will update later, I have 23 points left and eating at my parents house tonight so wish me luck!!

Hi girls,

Kate, it is weird isn't it?! I read on the WW site that you don't HAVE to use the 49 extra points, but they do encourage it, so maybe we will lose weight even using all 49?! I have a feeling I will be using mine this week, as got a wedding on Saturday. BUT it is annoying having to re-calculate everything! I sat down last night and did a few things I've got in the cupboards, and updated my tracker from yesterday (the biscuits weren't as high as I initially thought) planning to do more tonight (sad or what?!) and yesterday, including pudding, I ended on 34 points, so my 30 allowance plus 4 from my weekly 49...

Today:

Breakfast:

Special K bliss bar (2)

Lunch out at a nice pub/bar, so guessing based on tracker:

Tagliatelle in a tomato sauce no cheese (counting as 13. 10 for pasta based on 100g dry weight being 10 points, and I weighed out (!!!) 100g dry spaghetti at home, and it looked a similar amount to what was at the restaurant ((and anyway Zoe did have some of it too!)) and then counting 3 points for approx. 2 tsp oil in the sauce and the rest just veg (tomatoes, garlic etc) so 0. On the tracker it says Zizzi spaghetti pomodoro without cheese is 11, so I reckon 13 should be fine?!

Snacks: 3 (oops) chocolate/shortbread cookie things (7) worked out from nvs.

That's 22/30 pro points used, so 8 left plus 45 weekly allowance. DH is working late so not sure what to have... Will be something involving SALAD!!!

Will try and update later-may well have to dip into my weekly allowance again... but want to try and save a fair few for Saturday...
