So my sister,’s tried it (M)and it was good for her for awhile before she stopped it. I also hate their commercials and have yet to hear anything really complimentary about the company who runs it. I know they have to protect their product, but I get he impression of heavy-handedness from them. Anyway, so I want to try out the plan, but don’t want to support the company. Hmmm, an issue. My Mom wants to try it with my Dad and one of my sisters. Dad has high cholesterol and needs to watch what he eats better. Yes, both my parents are really bad at making healthy food decisions. When in doubt, they will always pick the less healthy item. I’ve been supervising some teenage boys for the past 2 months and my parents sort of remind me of one of them. The one who will do something until you tell him to do it and then he gets rebellious. I think the more my Dad especially is told to eat healthier, the less chance it is that he will do it. But then, my Mom sort of enables him since she buys the groceries and its her who buys the cheesecake, high fat dips, ice cream, and highly salted and fatty frozen foods since she hates cookies and would rather just stick premade lasagna in the microwave. Anyway, my sister(S) is planning for her mission and she wants to eat more healthily and get in shape before she goes. Another sister (A) wants to lose weight, but her husband doesn’t make it easy. He is a very picky eater and will only eat certain things that are not healthy and mentions her need to lose weight sometimes(not in an abusive way), she also has a 18 month old and is taking grad classes online, and she hates counting carbs, calories, points, anything like that. I wonder if the Core program would be a good one for her to try.
Anyway, some since my family is starting Weight Watchers (not the in person meetings type, but we borrowed the other sister(M)’s books and will have to do without since my Mom and sister hate socializing and meetings. Dad is a lot more socialble and I like talking to most people too. Most people, lol.
We start on Monday. I like the idea of the flex points program and will try it for 2 weeks to see if it will work for me and if I lose any weight or my clothes feel better. I like the idea of the flexibility, so we will see how it works out.
