Newsletter, week of November 22nd

Last Week

Knowing the Points values of holiday food can help you decide what you'll eat, how much, and how often. Make sure you're looking up anything we didn't cover!

This Week

"But I made this just for you!" Last week was all about the logical side of holiday eating. This week is all about the emotional side of things. Does that quote sound familiar?

Kudos

Yesennia received her first 5 pound star, Estella got her 5% award, Pat got a 65 pound star, and Candy is now officially down over 80 pounds. As a wonderful bonus, both Heidi and Trista reached their weight goals, having lost 117.8 and 51.8 pounds respectively. Holy cow!

What you're eating is important, but how much you eat is also good to know. Our electronic scale not only weighs your food, but its database of foods will help you calculate Points values as well! Makes a great holiday gift, too.

Weekly Potpourri

Exercise comes in many formats. A recent study shows that a workout on your Wii can be just as good as doing "real" exercise. Now, don't think that a game of bowling can completely replace a step aerobics class, but know that you're NOT just frittering time away playing those games. You really are burning calories!
