  • Kathy, you sound like a woman on a mission! Good for you. You'll be at 145 in no time.

  • Katpo...I see you have a snack of WW carrot cake for 1 point-I love these and the chocolate ones too! I slice them vertically into two pieces and top then with Cool Whip free. They seem like a bigger snack and they take longer to eat this way...thought you might like to try it!
  • Wowee! That's a great idea -- thanks very much!
  • I still haven't found them here. I'm very sad.
  • Don't be sad - be glad you're not "up north" where we have very little to enjoy! (I had a ww 2 pt cookies and cream ice cream bar yesterday and it was FANTABULOUS - so yummy - I can see how you could OD on this tho!)

    Kathy - wow - changing your route to work - you really are dedicated. Good for you.

    Breakfast: 1/2 c. lf pineapple/cottage cheese cup, decaf w/cream

    sf/ff yogurt

    Dinner: ?? leftover salmon or roast beef? (have a pot of brown rice in the fridge and some fresh green beans for side dishes).

    Snack: maybe a decaf non fat cappucino while dd is dancing tonight?

    MUST DRINK MORE WATER - becoming a slacker in this area! Bad Froufie!
