Default Points Question

I just finished dinner and still have 10 points left. Should I just move
on or should I try and consume the 10 points? This has been happening a
lot lately.

A Skinny Cow and a glass of wine would be 6 points. I could eat 40 peanuts
for the other 4 points. Or not.

11 days into this and the water weight continues to come off. Showed
another 2# loss this morning. Or is it still water weight?

Default Points Question

Yes, you should eat all the points you have left in your daily budget (if
the extra 10 is flex points, of course, you do not need to) Since you are
just 11 days into this, your body will eventually adjust to eating less
food, and it will get harder to lose the weight on the same amount of food
and exercise (I've been into this for almost two years, and still have that
famous "last 10-15 pounds"). If you cut out the food right now, your body
might react by going into starvation mode and start hoarding all the
calories (and fat) that it can. Then it will just get harder and
harder....Plus, as you lose, your daily limit will reduce to reflect your
new weight, so enjoy having so many points left, and have a good snack! My
daily limit is now 22 and man that can be hard!!!

Good luck

Meg~

Thanks for the reply Meg. I went and chopped up an apple and dumped a
light peach yogurt on it for 4 points, had a Skinny Cow for 3 points
(peanutbutter) and 3 points worth of nuts. This is fun. )

If I do not eat all of my points I do not lose, the peanuts have good fats,
perhaps, have milk instead of the wine, Lee
