Slapping a person who is counting the number of points in your meal while you're eating = 100 bonus points
Interesting I just knew calories, not points, is this also by weigh watchers? Just curious:)

Weight Watchers developed the "points" system between 10 and 15 years ago. It takes the calories, fat and fiber of the food...and calculates a "point" value. (Each point is around 40-50 calories) and you eat between 22 and 30 points a day, depending on your weight.

Telling a Weight Watcher's fan not to mentally tally up all your food points
-pointless!
hehe
I think I am eating ALL the wrong choices.
But good for you Yvonne. I always admire people who make a few good choices as a way of life, no matter what it is. It always pays off.
That is why they keep on handing out free offers at those gyms, because most people don't stick with it. Anything that changes a persons way of life too drastically is not going to last.
(Except moving to Ottawa, hahaha!)
Love and miss you.

I also agree with Mom. You are admirable Yvonne. How many pounds have you lost so far on this journey?
Hi:)
