Hi all,
Have read lots of your diaries and have decided to start my own in an attempt to keep me on the straight and narrow.
This is day 2 and so far so good, although I still getting used to the points value of things. This morning I had superfood granola with low fat natural yoghurt and it was 7.5 points!!!! So am being super careful now for the rest of the day - Quorn stir fry for tea!!
Have been through the cupboard writing the points on lots of jars so at least I can start to plan my meals and hopefully eat a bit more (granola is now banned!!)
Anyway my biggest temptation is going to be wine/alcohol. I have worked out that there is 9 points in a bottle of white so I might try and limit myself to one large glass on nights I fancy one (3points by my measures) and see how I get on. How do the rest of you find weightloss and alcohol??
My long term goal is to lose 45lbs, but my first target is to complete a full week without exceeding my points.
All help gratefully received from you guys.
Thanks
Tulip
