Welcome to let's track 4. This has been a great thread for me over the past year and a half or so. Drop by daily and basically do your food journal here. It works in a couple of ways.....

1- be accountable for what you eat.
2- give and get food/meal/snack ideas.
3- support and be supported by other "losers."




Here's my day so far.......

Woke up and went for a 10 mile bike ride. This has been great but I think it is time to pick up the pace. It is more of a liesurely ride these days. Burned about 250 calories.

breakfast
steel cut oatmeal with 1TBS brown sugar 3pts

Amy thanks for the tip on the bagel, I will check it out this weekend.......I am looking at lowing the points on some of my favorite foods.....I realized this week now that I am tracking again, that I was actually over points (wasn't apying close attention because of the move I was busy and no time for me, but now I am getting back to time for me, yea me!!!) And also I am homeful of going down another step after weigh in on saturday this week, I am close.....keep your fingers crossed........I will be here when you get back!!!

I just found this thread. I was wondering if you are going to meetings or doing WW at home. I have to do something and I was trying to decide which would be better for me.

I have done Jenny Craig in the past. I need a little more flexibility in the summer when we are gone so much on the weekends.

Welcome Lori,
I go to ww.Well I did before my injury and then avoiding it because I gained weight....I am also online with ww.I can enter my foods and it tracks for me.The main reason I go to meetings is the support from other people.It has been almost 3 years so I know everyone.If you are travelling there are meetings everywhere and you can look that up online.For me the meetings are my source of accountability.
