Bloomer,

I earned 6 activity points yesterday. I ended up with 3 pts at the end of the night. Do most of you plan out your menus for the next day?

I try to plan out mine. If I get to the point where I'm starving for a meal and don't know what I'm having yet, I get frustrated and end up going out to eat or making really poor choices. So planning ahead is the way for me :) Some people just like to be accountable, I think, by posting menus.

As for not eating activity points earned -- I think you're supposed to make sure you eat your activity points as you need the extra energy to rebuild muscle and keep your metabolism going... That being said, I know I don't always manage to eat the extra points!

I like gathering ideas from everyone's menus ;)

I'm sure you're probably correct on using your exercise pts. however, when I asked about them at my first meeting (last wed.) they said we'd address them at my 2nd meeting.

fitbyforty -- yes! That's the one. I wish I'd remembered the right title. The one I chose makes it look as though it's about planners, or trackers, rather than what we're tracking.

I'm on Flex and get 33 points (thank goodness! Easy to start when it's that high)

Sunday:
Breakfast -- protein shake (4)
Snack -- WW 2-point bar (2)
Lunch -- 3 oz chicken on Roman Meal Honey Wheatberry bread with 2 tsp Land o' Lakes butter/canola oil spread (7)
watered Gatorade (2),
tangerine (1)
Dinner baked salmon in lemon basil sauce and steamed spinach (7)
Snacks: Activia yogurt (2), 2 graham crackers (3), iced tea (1), apple (1), pear (1)

That's 31, and that's fine (so far!)

I track in several places too -- including etools and my WW journal and a blog -- and we all may get tired of it, but it is nice to see what other people are eating, and it keeps me honest :)

Easy enough to fix Bloomer.Tomorrow start a new thread called Let's Track.Everyone will know and follow you there.I plan to start tracking as well.

On activity points our leader says they are use or lose, you can use them the day you earn them but you can't save them up like your flex points. I guess that keeps you from exercising yourself to death for a hot fudge sundae :D
