Why Atkins works for me

[captain_slinky]

Today is my first day of being *dedicated* to doing the WeightWatchers "Points" thing. Sticking strictly to 30 points per day.

So far I have used up 20 points on a can of Spaghetti-O's, a bag of fat-free microwave popcorn, 3 oranges and an apple.

I am STARVING.

And all i can think of is firing up the BBQ and grilling up a 10-pound package of chicken hind-quarters and chowing down *yum*!

Or getting a big old bucket of Hot Wings!

Or a nice big juicy STEAK!

Or a 3-egg Sausage-n-Cheese OMLETTE!

Point is, I can think of a hundred different Atkins-Friendly things I want to ewat as long as I'm not doing Atkins at the time. Also, I can't think of ANYTHING that I want to eat that's WeightWatchers friendly when I get home. Like I said, I'm STARVING! And the only things that sound appealing and/or like something I can make when I get home are all ATKINS!!!

I think the sollution to this problem could be to have most of my points in a nice, big breakfast every day. Something that can get me through the rest of the day. Something more substantial than a can of Spaghetti-O's.

Shopping sounds EXCELLENT! And we even have a brand new Central Market just around the corner from us in Mill Creek if you're interested... they built up the area down there in to something to rival University Village almost! Sunday afternoon sound good?
