Rick - Day 3 & 4

Wow! I am so excited about all of the great advice, encouragement, and support that we’ve gotten so far!  It amazes me that people that I have no personal connection with are really helping us out!  Thanks to everyone so far and keep up with the tips and advice.

I wanted to comment on a couple of comments so far.  Hydroxycut; we decided to try it, we weren’t sold on anything other than just giving it a try.  We both take 2 caplets in the morning and 2 in the evening.  So far, I think they supress our hunger but it’s a bit too early to tell and they seem to work better for me than the regular kind.  I tried the regular Hydroxy cut before and felt jittery on it (maybe too much caffeine?) so I quit it.

In regards to the zero points foods.  Exactly correct, too much quantity does start to add points.  I find right now that I’m not eating enough to add up.  I’ll have one large carrot, raw (cleaned of course :-) and some surgar snap peas or an apple for a snack.  I just find that I’m not nearly as hungry as I was before and am really motivated to be successful, which is where you all come in!

Again, with the Campbell’s soup, too much salt/sodium is not good.  I like to have it a couple of times a week as it is fairly low points but know that I have to limit the amount due to the salt.  Great advice!

I had vietnamese food the other day and was wondering if someone could help with points.

  • 1 salad roll
  • 1 spring roll
  • grilled pork (about 5 oz)
  • rice vermicilli noodles
  • hoison sauce (about 1 tbls)

I figured that it was about 12 points but if someone knows better please let me know (because I love it and want to reward myself with it!).

Again, thanks for the support!  We’re loving it!

Rick
