    Fed Up

    I was about to say the same too, use higher pointed food. Sometimes eating healthier stuff means its lower pointed and you can struggle with it. A nice piece of cheese or some nuts is an easy way to use some points. I remember feeling the same when I did WW years ago, I couldnt get through...

    I LOVE WEIGHT WATCHERS

    ME too, I love the WW way of doing things, and if done right you do get the results. :) I think I have tried all the diets going but always come back to WW. It is a sensible way to loose weight and eat sensibly. I know it can be discouraging at times, and we all want the instant weight loss (I...

    Getting back into it. Woohoo. !!!

    Afternoon all. thanks for lovely messages of encouragement, and best wishes. :) All going ok so far, I have 19 points a day to play with, and although its only 2 days in am managing to eat well and within my points. Will be making some adjustments to lower pointed things (eg: yogurts)...

    Whats the new Kick Start ?

    Many thanks for the info. :) I had guessed it was the 18 points a day thingie. My points work out at 19 a day, so not much benefit I think for me to do the Kick start. I am always reluctant to give up any of my points, even if its only 1. :D:D:D:D Thanks again. Deb x
  202. Cavycrazy

    Whats the new Kick Start ?

    I am guessing its start on 18 points a day regardless of what points you should be on ?? Do you do for one or two weeks. ?? They did something similar years ago, when I first started WW. Thanks. Deb x

    Hi Tracie welcome to the WW'ing section. :) Ww'ing is a brilliant way of dieting and does encourage healthy eating, as most low points things are your healthier foods so you can eat plenty. It would be best if you can get hold of the books/bible that tells you all about the WW plans...
