November/December Weight Loss Thread?

[Susan Otcenas]

Those of you on WW how do you manage to be so diligent about recording everything?

I work in front of a computer most of the day, so after I eat something, I just pop open the screen online and record it before I go back to work. At home I have a laptop in the living room, and often bring it in to the kitchen to calculate the points as I'm cooking. I realize this probably sounds like overkill to many people, but i *really* like the discipline. It's very black and white. I either have points remaining, or I don't. If there aren't any points left, I stop.

One other thing I've found helpful is to use the points tracker as a PLANNER. If you take your meals to work, or know what you expect to eat, you can put it all into the tracker in the morning. Edit in the evening if you ate more or less of something than you'd planned.
