I love how it's shown me all these little things I didn't realize were as big a deal (points wise) as they really are. We've touched on this before, but wow, so many examples, you know? And likewise I wouldn't have stopped to understand that so many things are so harmless. I mean, really, a bag of ramen noodles is 10 points, or I can eat two turkey rolls and a couple of cheese cubes for 2?!
We've accumulated a list of tons of minimal point meals (zucchini pasta with marinara and sauteed mushrooms, lettuce wraps, rice paper wraps, lentil soup) that make it so easy to balance things out such that you can have bacon and eggs for breakfast and cake in the afternoon...and still love everything you're eating...and lose weight. I'm never hungry (I mean maybe because of some weird poor planning like I got caught up running errands and didn't eat for too long, but not because of WW).
Sometimes I get nervous about my points continuing to decrease, but it happens gradually enough that I hope it won't seem like some huge adjustment. So far I've dropped from 39 to 35 and it's only really a thing the first week I have a new number, and then it feels normal. I follow someone on tumblr who has gone from 72 to 56 (I think she's went from 490 to 350 so far, or something like that), that claims to not really be able to tell the difference, so that's encouraging.
