Last Week

Zero plus zero is not always zero! Keep an eye on portion sizes in general, but especially those zero Point foods. If you're not pleased with your rate of weight loss, that's an area to target.

This Week

Do you need a pep talk? You can always get one from me at a meeting, but you can do it yourself anytime you need one. We'll help you get your brain in gear for that.

Jeane received her first 5 pound star, Sabrina reached 10 pounds lost, Dan got to 15 pounds, and Joyce reached 30 pounds lost. And on Wednesday morning, we celebrated the fact that Trixi got to her goal with a total weight loss of 42.5 pounds! Awesome job.

WW Product of the Week

Weight Watchers snack bars - have you tried our newest Fruity Nutty Madness bar? It's a great trail mix type snack that only costs you 2 Points. How about our Peanut Butter Bliss? Never tried it? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!? This is (in my humble opinion) the best bar we've ever had, and you only need to spend 1 Point!

Weekly Potpourri

I know many of us like to EAT cake, so maybe you're like me and you like to SEE cake, too. Well, the folks over at Cake Wrecks bring you the best of the worst in cake art. This is a hilarious, sometimes PG-13, blog that cracks me up AND makes me drool (I'm not sure how they do that!). Make sure you scroll down and check out the cake head. Diet aid, indeed.
