Are you getting in all your good healthy guidelines? Eating all your points,what about the extra weekly points?

You don't give us enough information. How about posting a typical day's menu? It looks like you've lost 4 pounds in 4 weeks. That is normal. With only 14 pounds to lose, it isn't going to come off fast. It takes more than 4 weeks to see what your body's pattern for weight loss will be. Have you lost any inches?

Mind posting what you are eating? A daily menu would be great.

You have to eat all of your points,following the good healthy guidelines will use up a large portion of your points.If you don't eat all your points then you probably won't lose the weight.If you are working out a ton you should eat your activity points too.Then there are the weekly points,some people believe they lose best when they use those.

Healthy oils are part of the guidelines.I think you need 2 tsp a day.

Having trouble getting in all your healthy oils? Here's some idea's. You only need to eat 2 tsp of oil per day. (1 teaspoon is a serving), So you can get it in throughout the day. Healthy oils are: olive oil, canola, sunflower, safflower or flaxseed. FYI: Fish oils, Oil capsules, Avocados, peanut butter, nuts, etc, do NOT count towards WW healthy oils requirements. Only the pourable kind count.

1) Cook with it, Alot of recipes start off with oil in the skillet
2) Mix up a marinade for meats and/or veggies
3) Mix it with meat sauces, or most sauces
4) Sautee with it.
5) Drizzle over pasta
6) Drizzle over popcorn
7) Drizzle over veggies
8) Drizzle over pizza
9) Drizzle over corn on the cob
10) Drizzle some over fat free cheese(it helps melt better)
11) Mix up some salad dressing (like olive oil and balsamic vinegar)
12) Rub it on poultry or fish before baking it
13) Rub it on meats for the spices and/or rubs have something to stick to
14) Rub some on a baked potato
15) Grill sandwiches
16) Stir Fry veggies
17) Coat some homemade baked fries
18) Makes garlic toast, (oil and garlic on bread toast)
19) Add some to soups
20) Add some to smoothies
21) Mix 2 tsps olive oil to fat-free salad dressing
22) Add to anything that is fat-free. instead of the fat, you're replacing it with healthy oils
23) Roast veggies with oil
24) Mix canola oil to oatmeal, yogurt, smoothies, soups
25) put some in salsa
26) If you eat frozen dinners, drizzle some over it.
27) make some Herb or Spice Infused Oil, (for dipping or cooking)
28) Mix in some Butter Buds or Molly McButter, you'll have butter flavored oils.
29) mix some in the new PB2 peanut butter flour that alot are trying. (you're replacing the fat with healthy oils)
. . . . . . . . . .
