Well I do know I will have a veggie tray on the table for the before dinner munchies and after dinner snacking

At our family get togethers we tend to play cards and family games for hours so I really am looking forward to it but like you have all said why blow all my points on a piece of cake so my goal is if I have to eat some dessert it will only be a bite, then back to some other busy work to keep my hands busy

ok got to work in the am check in tomorrow

I blew it!!! 2 days of eating in a row and one more to go.I am making a veggie tray and getting subway tray for tommorow that should help me make better choices!!!! I didnt do bad on sweets just carbs....
it will take a few days to detox my body from all the carbs

YESTEDAY DOES NOT COUNT IT IS A NON-COUNT DAY.....

repeat as many times as you can

DGramie, what is a "subway tray?"

It's been all about one meal for me this last week..that's right, I am pregnant. I got the shock of my life on Nov. 25th we found out I am pregnant after being told by my doctor that it would hard to have any more children since I have the PCOS.

So I go to the Dr. on Monday to get things started. Since I am in Germany I go the the American clinic for refferals to my German OB.

So my plan, to eat as healthy as I can and then still go to the gym, walk the track with my family and be fit this time as I was the first time.

Just thought I would let you all know..

Oh ASH that is wonderful news! congradulations...I hope only the best for you! consider yourself hugged

Thanks..I feel awful, but it's the kind of awful you can handle! : )

Okay, anyone? I am curious. What is a subway tray? Is this food from the Subway sandwich shops?

Thanks!

Im sorry it took me so long to answer. I ordered a platter of foot long sub sandwiches from our local subway restraunt. I thought I was being smart but still overate the other stuff we had.
I have eaten for 4 days and man can I tell it. TOday is back to routine..back to my daycare and my food routine and exercise dvds. My scales really jumped up bad!!

dgramie,

Thanks for the clarification. It was hard for me to imagine there is a food I'm unaware of! I certainly know the allure of sandwiches, particularly BREAD. Though I don't advocate the necessity of eliminating food groups, I find whenever I start back on sandwiches (breads and grains), my eating goes on a tear - completely out of control.

Here too, the scale announced the damage of my Thanksgiving carb marathon - up 4 pounds tp 161!


I'm actually looking forward to getting back on track.

Good morning and happy december!

?? I read somewhere that 5 free foods =1pt is that right? I really loaded up on veggies yesterday and want to make sure I dont count wrong.

I have used that rule of thumb dgramie
