Very nice! Good luck going forward. I know a few people that did WW and it really worked well for them. - Krusty Mar 26, 08:14
I'm having a lot of luck eating fruit as a snack. -- nm - David Mar 26, 08:06 15
- I've had a banana and 2 Fuji apples today...it works pretty well. By the way...the last group of Fujis I bought are hands down the best - Jim Mar 26, 08:16 14
  - I go rotate between grapes and strawberries with the occasional apple. - David Mar 26, 08:23 1
    - We got some grapes this weekend, they were horrible. So I'm staying away from them for a while. Love some strawberries, though. - Jim Mar 26, 08:28
  - My gf swears that Fuji apples are by far the best. I'm a red delicious kind of a guy but I think I should try one of those Fuji's. - Krusty Mar 26, 08:18 11
    - How did you manage to escape the fuji apple craze of the nineties, when everything had to have fuji apples in it? :-) -- nm - con_carne Mar 26, 08:40
    - i like fuji, but i usually buy granny smith - tRuMaN Mar 26, 08:32 4
      - Yeah, those are rather tart. My roommate loves them. I like sweet and crispy apples. -- nm - Krusty Mar 26, 08:33 3
        
        I would never call red delicious crispy. They seem mealy to me. -- nm - zork Mar 26, 08:35 1
        
        Maybe I'm getting the name wrong. They're dark red, sweet, and crispy. Maybe, they're Washington apples? -- nm - Krusty Mar 26, 08:43
        
        whimp - tRuMaN Mar 26, 08:35
    - I've been a Royal Gala guy for years. But lately, Fujis have just been worlds better. Nice and crisp. No mealy-ness to them. -- nm - Jim Mar 26, 08:30 1
      - Hmm... I hate mealy-ness or a soft apple. I might grab one on my way home and see how I like 'em. -- nm - Krusty Mar 26, 08:36
    - Honeycrisp or pink lady apples are the best. -- nm - znufrii Mar 26, 08:19 2
      - Never heard of those but if I see 'em I'll try one. -- nm - Krusty Mar 26, 08:32
      - It's completely a matter of taste -- nm - con_carne Mar 26, 08:21
Awesome. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 26, 08:05
Awesome! -- nm - ty97 Mar 26, 08:05
I hadn't lost anything in the first two weeks, mostly because I would take my points to the limit and forget about what I ate. - Max Mar 26, 07:56 10
- Yeah, it's been tough to get used to. Lots of grilled chicken and Smart Ones to get started for us. - Jim Mar 26, 08:00 9
  - Yeah, grilled chicken becomes your friend. - ty97 Mar 26, 08:06 2
    - Last night was chicken soft tacos. Lowest point tortillas I could find, couple ounces of seasoned chicken breast and some WW shredded cheese. nm - Jim Mar 26, 08:10 1
      - We buy the carb balance wraps, pretty decent. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 26, 08:12
  - my day is - Max Mar 26, 08:04 5
    - Yeah, staying up late is a killer for me. That's when I get all snacky and stuff. but we've been eating pretzels as a snack... - Jim Mar 26, 08:06 4
      - Try waiting as long as you can for lunch & dinner -- nm - Strongbad Mar 26, 08:13
      - wow, usually bread things are killer. One day I was so hungry I ate 3/4 a loaf of Panera Italian bread for dinner. That was... many points. -- nm - Max Mar 26, 08:08 2
        
        yeah, pretzels are pretty decent...most stuff isn't. Also, we just broke down and bought a bunch of the WW snacks. - Jim Mar 26, 08:11 1
        
        jello and apples, jello and apples. treats and snoozin', snoozin' and treats. -- nm - Max Mar 26, 08:32

Nice! Are you doing any type of exercise, too? - JaxSean Mar 26, 07:50 1
- Other than demolishing our bathroom? No. But plans are to get back to the gym here shortly. Have too much going on around the house - Jim Mar 26, 07:52
I am not sure 1000 pounds is a goal to shoot for. - Bacon Mar 26, 07:49 1
- heh...yeah, that's what I'm going for. Went from 254 to 246.2 this week. - Jim Mar 26, 07:53
