Irene, I was the same, thought "no way I have to stick to points couldn't possibly cope on Core", but I decided to give it a go after hearing so many positive stories at WW meetings and I knew I was wasting my points on junk food labelled as "low fat". Its only day 2 for me but its going well so far and I haven't really felt hungary which is unusual for me as on points I was often starving and searching the cupboards for something to eat which usually ended up being a WW bar, snackajacks, go ahead crisps or if things were really bad a bar of chocolate. I knew that I really needed to snack more on fruit (and the weeks when I managed this had slightly better losses) so thats the main push behind me going to core. I HAVE to snack on fruit if I need to snack unless I want to break into the 21 points I'm allowed a week which I really want to save for the weekend.
Receipes - well I have got them from a variety of sources - what I do is copy and print them and I have a huge file at home full of receipes - I get them off the WW website, from Ivillage message board for WW or from Oldchems website - oldchem - great for Core receipes, I also have virtually every WW cookbook going, always buy the mag and photocopy any receipe that I want and it goes in my file. When I try a receipe if its good it stays in the file, if its pants it goes in the bin ha ha !
