What a beautiful day it is! I sure love the sun!!! I hope everyone is having a great St. Patrick's day!
There have been an few members who have asked me about alcohol and POINT values. While I have pretty much no practical advice, accept, be sure to track your POINT values, I did run across this article at WeightWatchers.com that might be helpful. http://www.weightwatchers.com/util/art/index_art.aspx?tabnum=1&art_id=47521
Now this weeks meeting is great (as usual :). We are going to learn about monitoring ourselves. It is a great time to recommit ourselves to tracking or all other types of monitoring that we need to be doing. The Helpful Habit of Monitoring Yourself is a really valuable tool that will help you in every aspect our our quest to a healthy weight!
Please have a great week and see you in the meeting!!!
