Weight Watchers

I started Weight Watchers last week.  I have not lost the baby weight yet and since spring and summer are coming I really want to fit back into my clothes and not have to wear stretchy pants all year long-although they really are comfortable.  Weight Watchers seems doable because counting calories seems so restrictive and depressing but with this you can almost feel like you are not starving to death.  Fruits and vegatables are free and you can have as much of those as you want.  The sugar and fats thing is what is going to kill me.  I have 26 points a day to use and a bag of Reese's Pieces is 6 points-that is way too many to waste on junk that will make me hungry much sooner.  I have found that I am trying to be frugal with my points at the beginning of the week so that I can almost binge on the weekend since the weeks points start over on Monday.  If I don't use my points I lose them so I totally ate almost what I wanted yesterday (Sunday).  Keeping track of everything I eat really shows how terrible I have eaten in the past and how much junk I consume.  It really takes alot of work to eat healthy though and takes alot of preplanning and thinking about what I am eating and when.  I can't let myself get too hungry or it's all over.  Plus with the baby it is hard too because it is so much easier to eat junk when I am tired or he is fussy.  I have gotten Bountiful Baskets the last 2 weeks and also went to Walmart for produce.  We have so much produce now in the house that we could open a store.  I have been eating celery like crazy and adding bananas to my slim fast shakes.  I love cheese and peanut butter and those have lots of points so it is really hard to not eat those things.  I bought out the Weight Watcher's items at Walmart and Smith's because
A. They have the point values already on them and
B.  They have lower points than their regular counterparts.
Plus I bought fat free sourcream, fat free mayo, fatfree cool ship 
I have spent a lot of time imputting recipes and looking up point values on the computer so that I know what I can eat.  The first day I thought I was going to starve to death and went over my points and into my extras by 7.  There have been a few more times I have been quite hungry especially at night.  If I could go to bed at 9 that would be one thing but Kyle doesn't go down for the night until around 11:30 or 12. With this diet you have to be prepared and really plan what you are going to eat.  Saturday was hard because Don and Caleb we gone all day and Kyle was quite fussy.  I had to call Dena-my "sponsor" and have her talk me off a ledge because I was heading for the In and Out drivethrough.   I was super hungry and nothing that I could make sounded good.  I ended up going to Dle Taco and got a kids fry and a taco and only used 10 points.  This week is going to be hard though because we have to go to Vegas tomorrow for Kyle's shots and there is so much fast food to choose from.  Then on Friday I have a Girls Night Out at the movies where I will have to sneak in my own Diet Coke with Lime and Smart pop popcorn and forego the Junior Mints or Butterfinger and then on Saturday we are taking Cayden to dinner for his birthday.  He says that he wants Texas Roadhouse and that will absolutely kill my points if I got what I usually do.  Plus Sunday is the Superbowl which means there will be football food to eat.  UGHHH!  This week is going to be hard.  I can get extra points by exercising so I have to do that too to save myself.
