I haven't been doing too awesome about keeping track of my points as I go. I have been tallying them at the end of the day. When I do the tally I find myself over by like 5 or so points. This isn't good. I am dipping into my extra points at the beginning of the week, when I should be saving them for the weekend or what not. Anyway, today I have tracked as I eat. I am about 5 points under my goal and I have already eaten dinner. That means I may be able to sneak in a treat tonight. I also feel it an accomplishment that I dished out one serving onto my plate, ate it and then put the leftover food away. I am notorious for eating food until it is gone, or snacking on the leftovers even when I am not hungry. So now they are put away and I can't just eat them, it will take thought and effort to pull the food back out.
Does anyone know how to count crystal light drinks? Are they 0 points? Next to water, that is what I drink the most of.

I always counted crystal light as 0 points. I think if you have a lot of it you need to add the calories up and calculate your points that way. Like if I had one thing of crystal light, and then water the rest of the day, I wouldn't count it. But if all I drank was crystal light, the calories do add up.
Kerrie, I blog stalked you and found this blog. First of all I am SO proud of you. Weight loss is a hard thing. When I left Provo, I was at the heaviest I had ever been and along with that was feeling the emotional strains and frustrations. Last fall my roommates and I did a biggest loser competition and I was able to lose 20 lbs. I used weight watchers and found some FANTASTIC recipes. I'll send some your way if you want :) I love ya girl, we need to catch up soon.
