Guest guest Posted May 1, 2002 Report Share Posted May 1, 2002 I would not suggest it I find that if I eat at the high end of my points I lose more. My body goes into starvation mode if I do not eat enough for me this is because I havee dieted for so long. Each body is different. See what your own body does.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2002 Report Share Posted May 1, 2002 Hi , When you really look at the numbers, there is only a 2 point difference in the ranges. My recommendation is to go with the point range suggested for your current weight. If you have trouble making the bottom end of your new point range, eat a slice of cheese and it will put you where you need to be! |--------+-----------------------> | | " Henry " | | | <henryel@musc| | | .edu> | | | | | | 05/01/2002 | | | 09:01 AM | | | Please | | | respond to | | | wwliterside | | | | |--------+-----------------------> >-----------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: wwliterside | | cc: (bcc: -C /BRE/AGFA/US/BAYER) | | Subject: Re: Today's WW Meeting | >-----------------------------------------------------------| hi girls, after my weigh in on mondya night i went up in points. 22-27, there is no way i can eat that many points . ifeel used to my 20-25 point range and was wondering if i could get away witth doing that. any advice thanks erin also, water reminder- drink up girls |--------+-----------------------> | | " & Joe " | | | <cjpjhm@earth| | | link.net> | | | | | | 04/30/2002 | | | 07:00 PM | | | Please | | | respond to | | | wwliterside | | | | |--------+-----------------------> >-----------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: " Pointers " , | | " LiterSide " <wwliterside > | | cc: (bcc: -C /BRE/AGFA/US/BAYER) | | Subject: Today's WW Meeting | >-----------------------------------------------------------| I went to a WW meeting tonight with my dh & I thought I'd pass on some words from wisdom " from our WW leader on this week's topic of self-esteem.
