WW Product of the Week

3 Month Journal - with emotional eating as our topic for the week, a journal could just be the ticket. If you can look back on your eating habits, you might notice a pattern, connect the dots, and realize what's really going on. For $6 you can have 12 weeks of information at your fingertips.

Weekly Potpourri

When cruising around the Weight Watchers website, I noticed an ad for Jolly Time popcorn - apparently there is going to be a Healthy Pop variety that will have the Points value on the box! I couldn't find any evidence of this at the Jolly Time product website, but in poking around came across this really neat WW article about popcorn, including the Points values of various brands. I know how complicated it can be to use your PointsFinders on those labels, so feel free to use this as a cheat sheet!
