I joined last week and was told I could have 29 per day and the additional 49 for the week. For my first week felt like I was eating nonstop and I never came close to the 29. The closest day I had I was under by 7. The farthest day I was under by 17. Needless to say, I didn't use any of the weekly extra points. And I also worked up 13 activity ones.

My deal is, I only lost 1.8 this week. Do you think I'm staying too far away from my daily points? I seriously feel full after meals and havent been hungry. Should I try to eat more points? I'm so confused.

Don't eat when you aren't hungry but think about incorporating some healthy higher point foods like nuts, avocado, brown rice, whole grain bread, etc. Also, 1.8 is a good loss.

Cut down on the zero point and one point foods perhaps?

Yes, make sure that you're getting in all of the nutrients you need - milks, healthy fats, good protein, whole grains, etc. You should be able to get a lot closer without getting overly full - you need to fuel your body with the vitamins and minerals it needs and a supplement doesn't do that (it supplements a healthy diet).

What are you eating?

In the morning I have a skinny ice latte and a piece of fruit on the way to work. Then I have special k and skim milk when I get there. Around 6 for that.

Lunch has been a salad or left overs from tge night before.

Dinner is some sort of baked or stirfried chicken with either 2 veggies or a veggie and rice/wheat pasta/couscous.

Snacks are fruit or SF jello/pudding or a skinny cow ice cream.

Maybe try adding some dip to your veggies or full fat dressing to your salad. Also cheese or almonds are an easy way to add points to your day.

i had that problem in the beginning too. then, i actually used the recipe builder...

for example, i make stir fry a lot, using a fresh stir fry mix from trader joes. i add chicken, and make a little sauce. serve over rice. rather than add up the points for each ingredient individually on the tracker, i use the recipe builder on etools. the points are a little higher for some reason when you do it that way. which is ok with me, because technically, it is a recipe right? its more accurate that way...try it for when you're making meals, whether it be a stir fry, soup, simple pasta dish, etc...that might help bump up your points.
also, i count the veggie mix. there is nothing in it but veggies, but i know i use more than one serving, so i account for it.

edit- since the rice is on the side, i don't include it in the recipe...just the veg, sauce ingredients, and chicken

I eat some cheese and crackers (reduced fat wheat thins), and that can be about 6 points. Here are a couple other snacks that I do: Yogurt with some grapenuts, Popcorn, ice cream (light, about 3-4 pts).

I have 49 points plus the extra 49. I really have a hard time hitting my target, but I know I need to eat to fuel the burn of fat. Keep at it!!

Lose the skinny cow and SF jello those have no nutritional value.

Change to whole or 2% milk. Make sure you are getting your oils in. Have nut butters as a snack. Have oatmeal or something more nutritious than Special K which has a lot of sugar.

That doesn't look like a sustainable meal plan. It looks like a "lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks! diet" from a 1980's magazine.

The 29 point minimum is based on the minimum amount of nutrition you need per day, going below that means there is something you body is missing which could lead to dry skin, hair falling out, etc. or could lead to a swing of the pendulum in the opposite direction of eating way too much to make up for it.

Maybe use some of the sample menus from the Getting Started book to guide your meals for a couple of days.

This may be a bit off topic; does avocado carry a point value? It is a veggie, but it is high in fat, but also good for you.
Just wondering

Yes, it has points.
