Day One on WeightWatchers

I chose the Core Plan--where you don't have to measure food or count calories. You just eat the healthy foods on the list until you fill full, but not too full. I really do not like counting calories, writing down what I eat, and measuring portions. The Core Plan works better for me. I don't want to be hungry or suffer any when I am losing weight. I did notice yesterday that there are quite a few foods that I consider healthy that are not on the core list. Such as Bread and Peanuts. Also the dairy products on the list are all non-fat. I went to the store yesterday and could not find any dairy products that where non-fat; there were reduced-fat or low-fat, but no non-fat. Also with this plan, I will have to be prepared with things for me to eat that are on the list. When I make meals for my family, I will have to take out a portion for me and not add the fattening things to it. With the CorePlan, you do get 35 points a week for foods that are not on the list. Yesterday, I used 8 of them. You can see that I will quickly use up all my points if I keep that up. Today I will be more careful.
