Right under my name is one of my favorite sayings “If you fail to plan then you plan to fail”. This is so true in Weight Loss that it is not even funny. The past week, I have failed to plan and thus when I get up each morning I am scrambling to find something to eat and it is usually the wrong thing.

Tomorrow, I am going to the grocery store and will choose better foods for the upcoming week. It’s only too late to start when you have given up.

Ok, I’ve seen it all now. I saw a commercial for Nutra System with Larry the Cable Guy and Dan Marino together. Who would have thunk that combination together on the same commercial? I have thought about using the Nutrasystem program but after further review what do you get? Pre-packaged meals that if used correctly will result in weight loss, but what about permanent weight loss?

I believe that you need a program that will not only help you take the weight off initially but help you ween yourself off of a prepared plan and learn to eat in the everyday world. Sure, nutrasystem will help you if you are locked in a room and feed these meals everyday, but what about the family reunion or a night out on the town at applebee’s? What do you do then? Stuff a pre-packaged meal down your shirt and sneak it into the restaurant? That’s what I like about weight watchers. It teachers you how to choose the correct food no matter where you are and the best part is it let’s you indulge once in a while. You can really have your cake and weight loss too.

I tried the low carb dieting. Although it had been working, it absolutely sucks to limit myself to meat, eggs and cheese day in and day out. So as of today I am back on the Weight Watchers Flex Points plan.

If you are new to the Weight Watchers points plan then watch the video for a brief overview of how it works. I can tell you for sure that if you follow the plan, it will work. The best part of all is that you can eat anything within moderation.

The one thing that I need to do is learn how to cook more from the Weight Watchers cookbook instead of eating all of those pre-packaged meals. I get burned out after a couple of weeks on just eating lasagna and spaghetti.
