Still felt like crap and ate some grapes. Still didn't feel well, so I had some Cheez Its (an individual bag) and finally started feeling better. 13 points later I'm done with lunch 
I guess my question is did anyone have any issues adjusting to the plan? Is this normal and just my body adjusting? Should I be easing into it?
I'm worried that I'm not eating enough. I mean, I know it's a diet, lol, but I'm thinking that I may not be eating the right foods. I feel like I'm getting to my point totals really quickly. Thank God for flex points or I'd starve! |
I'm starting with you! I have been a subscriber to WW online for 6 years...never stopped paying after losing 75 pounds six years ago.
Need to do it again.
Oh well. When you first start, you have to figure out how YOU eat. Find foods that will make you feel full without blowing your points. You may need more protein to fill you up and keep you full. Carbs run out quickly. Flex points are there to be used, but in my experience they slow down your weight loss. Something that really helped me in the past were Atkins weight loss shakes. They come prepared in cans. Get the plain chocolate ones and drink them cold. They are pretty tasty (I hate any other kind...to sweet!). It actually keeps you pretty full for about 4 hours. They used to count for 3 points.
