Hopped on the scale yesterday and was 198.6 which is in my goal range of 195-199. Makes for 18 lbs lost from my peak at 217. I primarily used the weight watchers point system as a guide to better eating and prevent overrating for the day. I was allowed 49 points a day. To put it in perspective a regular taco bell taco is 3 points, a beef burrito supreme is 9 points. A slice of supreme pizza is 5 points. Light beer is 3 points. The killer is soda at almost 1 point per ounce. Vegetables and fruit is free. I like it because it assigned a point value to food and really shows you how to eat healthier which is the key to sustained weight loss. It puts a value on the food you eat. For example. I love the Caniac from Raising Canes. 5 chicken tenders, crinkle cut fries, and two pieces of garlic bread. The reality is the tenders are 6 points each, fries 12 points, bread 10 points. That's a total of 52 points! Not to mention I usually washed it down with a 30 oz pop. If I ate that I would be 3 points over for the day. Everything I would eat after that would go towards fat storage.
