I joined WW online this week, and since I'm paying for it, I am keeping track of my points. I guess I will buckle down to a healthier way of eating soon, but I had such a good laugh a couple of days ago. I ate an entire bag of Chex Trail mix. It was a big bag too!

42 points. I had 4 chocolate donuts the next day, and yesterday, another, smaller bag of Chex. I am obviously not taking this too seriously right now, but I feel that if I am accountable somewhere, I will take it more seriously.

I only want to lose about 3 pounds, so I am not too worried. The problem is finding a good way to eat without feeling deprived all of the time. I have to do low carbs, but I do not enjoy cutting out carbs to an extreme point.

A tummy tuck would take care of all of this!!!

No Diana, I'm sure she isn't allowed 42 points, I think she meant that there were 42 points in the bag of chex mix.

Judy, I'm sorry you ate the whole bag, but I'm so relieved that I am not the only one who does stuff like that. My problem is when I get on the junk food roll, I will gain 5 lbs in the twinkle of an eye and then it will take 5 weeks to get it off and back to where I was before the binge!

Why is the weight so hard to take off and so easy and quick to gain back? I can struggle, almost fasting, to lose 2 pounds in a week - then gain 10 over a weekend.

Last night was my night. I got my yearly raise yesterday and it was not what was promised to me to stay in this position. While I am extremely thankful that I have a good job, I am upset that they broke their promise to me. So, I stopped to get groceries (almost all junk food) on the way home and grazed all evening! Even the g-kids mentioned that I didn't get healthy food. Now, tonight, I'll try again for healthy food!

Sandy, that's too bad that you didn't get what was promised to you, but as you mentioned, you still have a job. Sounds like you need a hug.

THANKS for the hug. Are hugs fattening?

Actually, hugs are slimming! Like Spanx!
