Tomorrow is my first weigh in (at home, since I'm doing WW Online). I'm nervous! On Thursday I took an unofficial weigh in and I was down 3 lbs! But then I ended up having a horrible Thurs & Fri, lol I recovered nicely today though. In fact, today was my best day on the program so far. However, I'm not sure if it's because I'm figuring out what works for me/getting used to the program or if it's because I was well fed the last two days LOL

I'm also realizing that I'm definitely going to have to use my flex points everyday. My daily point goal is 26, which seems to go by crazy fast. So I'll spread out my flex evenly and use up to 7 a day, if needed. Today I'm at a total of 32, so technically I have a point left. However, I worked out and got 4 points back...so I can have 5 more points of food if I wanted...but I feel full and content! Yay! I may treat myself to a 3 point skinny cow ice cream bar later, though.

Hoping for a good weigh in tomorrow!

While I'm not familiar with the new version of the program, I was basically raised on WW since my mom has been a leader for a really long time.

Your flex points and activity points are built into the program and are there for you to use. If you are hungry, use them! It makes the program more livable and makes you more likely to stick with it.

I've been hearing the "no more than 4 activity points a day" thing mentioned upthread for years, and it is a myth at least on the old Points program (like I said, I'm not familiar with Points Plus -- my mom is still a leader, but I live 500 miles away now). You can eat as many activity points as you earn.

Good luck! I think WW is a great program and it sounds like you're starting off really well.
