Weight Watchers Support - Can It Be Dfw?

Buffythedebtslayer

I am so cheap I am photocopying the points tracker things!

I was thinking about doing WW mon to fri and having the weekends off?

I have until C******** to lose the weight! ( I won't type the Cword yet its only Septmeber!!!)

Do you think the Mon- Fri thing would work - I mean it would be slow but that is better then constant wagon falling offxx

buffy - im not sure, i think mon-fri might work as long as you dont go mental at weekends. or you could just save as many points as possible from mon-fri for weekends? thats what im trying. dont worry i will be doing exactly the same with the trackers!!!

OOh Buffy I'm not sure. You could do it the wendi way - calculate your weekly points then use less mon - fri so you can have extra at the weekends. I find if I've had a good week just a couple of bad days can set me right back to the beginning! Have you tried it before? (WW) it isn't too hard to be good!

Hi,

I would be interested in joining - I have loads to lose, and today is my weigh in day.

At the moment, I am keeping a seperate 'thoughts diary' on my PC, which is for my feelings so that when I am at goal, I can look back at it, and remeber what a struggle my journey has been.

Take care

I am doing WW core plan, can't do the points thingy. I am also on the pound for a pound challenge.

Core plan works ok with DFW because its about veg and staple stuff like brown rice and cous cous, so you can do your own thing. I found the points thing works fine if you buy packet food but is really difficult if you cook from scratch.

aha!!!!!.........we seem to have gone full circle........:rotfl:

For anyone remotely interested, Willsnarf and I both posted on the WW boards many moons ago......I made a comment about debt, and he sent me in this direction......where I have stayed ever since!!!!!

I still have the weight to shift though, and can't afford to go back to WW, so might have to join in this thread I won't be doing points though, I will try and do the core thingy again.

An idea for anyone trying points and the Mon-Fri thing - I was really successful on points (got all the way to goal) by simply adding up the total I was allowed in the week and using it as a weekly total rather than a daily one - so if I was on, say 20 points a day, I just typed up a sheet with 140 points available for the week and would cross them off as I went along. That way, I could have a big fat takeaway at the weekend and still be within points!!! Less restrictive than the wendy plan......

Will weigh in tomorrow morning.........

I would like to join this thread to, been doing weight watchers points now for 5 weeks and have lost 5 pounds so far, coming off slowly but at least is it coming off. Got nearly 2 stone to lose for my wedding next April, but hoping to get a good stone off by xmas.

I would also like to know how people do ww the dfw way as it does cost a lot, especially if you are a snacker like me.

We could add the details on our signatures.

My weigh in today is Sunday's and today I STS (but I do have a cold at the moment)
