So...I joined Weight Watchers 3 weeks ago. I never really thought much about what I ate, I was naturally athletic, and never had a hard time maintaining my weight until I had two children, and turned 30. Everything slowed down, I was tired all the time, and I felt like I was losing control. It didn't help that my husband is naturally very thin, and can eat anything he wants and not gain an ounce. I didn't notice that things had gone so far until I saw myself in a video of the kids, and I did not like what I saw. I finally decided to make a change.
Like I said, it has been 3 weeks, and I have lost 10 pounds. My goal is 25 pounds, so I am happy to say I have put a dent in it.
I love the program, I don't feel limited by anything that I "can't" have, and I am discovering new recipes for old favorites that are healthier. I feel better, and this change is going to make my family healthier too.
One problem is, I am having trouble finding good recipes for salads that are filling, and low in points plus values. I am going to share a recipe for one I have made here after the jump:
