WI-Hunger-Weekly allowance points

[Guest guest]

Had a good weigh-in. Down 1.8#. I was happy

I was having trouble with hunger. Being only my third week back on

the program, I didn't want to get frustrated already! After speaking

to a few people, I remembered that the last time I was with WW (in

2001), we learned how to listen to our body and see what satisfied

our hunger more between meal: protein, or carbs, or a combination.

Mine was protein. So I have incorporated more protein in my snacks.

A great 1-pt. snack is 2 slices Healthy Choice Deli meat and 1 slice

fat-free cheese, rolled up in a snack baggie. Then I eat my fruit or

raw veggies. It really helps get me to lunch or to dinner!

Regarding the 35 weekly allowance points: I have heard it said that

1 pt. is roughly 50 calories. So the 35 pts would equal roughly 1750

calories in a week. True? It takes 3500 calories to equal 1 pound.

So, in my mind, one could " play around " with the 35 pts and by not

eating them, could maybe lose another ½ lb in a week? What do others

have to say?

Thanks for listening Becky in Boise 194.4/188.0/135
