So I did it! The 45 minutes last night. It was hard. All week working out has been difficult. And I have been sleeping 9 hours a night. So not like me. I never feel like I get enough sleep lately. Maybe I need to start taking vitamens?
This morning I weighed myself and i am finally back to the 312 :) I want to get below 310 so badly because then it feels so more within reach of my first little goal. Which is almost like a 10% I guess. A week ago today was the first time the scale showed 312, so it is nice to see that digit again. Maybe it has been hard because this is bascially the second full week I completed eating by a weight watchers plan? This weekend I need to be good. Tomorrow with luck on my side I am meeting the man I must secretly love (luckily he is one of the few people in on the secret and it is happily reciprocated) for lunch but must find a good place that is easy on my points. And saturday I am going out with my family possible before a play (yay! musical! Fiddler!). That is going to be more difficult. Hopefully we just grab a drink or something before hand.
What else? Oh I am going to go to yoga tonight or tomorrow. I just need to figure out when the next session is offered. And as long as I feel good tonight I am going to the gym for the 4th time this week so that means I am most likely going to get at least 5 times this week *crosses fingers*
okay to ending with a question or asking for advice: I work 7:30-6p M-Th so I end up going to the gym 6ish-7ish And when I get home I really want to eat. But I hear it is bad to eat so close to bedtime (I try to get to bed by 10p last night i was in bed by 9:30--craziness before i started exercising/dieting it was more like 11ish/12ish). Can anyone recommend something satisfying that isnt so many points? Or wouldnt hurt as much or a way of eating that perhaps i wouldnt be so wanting to munch when I get home. I want to start working out in the morning but just with my sleep pattern currently it doesnt really allow time. Any words will be greatly appreciated :) Thanks!

You asked about something thats pretty filling and not to many points - you could always have some veggies with hummus, thats tasty and low in points. Also, you could do the 100 calorie popcorn - thats only 2 points, and its a good amount of food, and you can get either regular, or kettle corn, which will always curb a sweet tooth! Good luck!!!

Hiya! What really helps me after I exercise or late at night is to have protein, usually I have a Whey Isolate Protein Shake. I normally use Syntrax Nectar but any brand is good. 1 scoop of the Lemon Tea flavour with hot water really works for me & the one I use has no carbs in it so I don't get a sugar rush/spike which means no triggered cravings.

Most experts say it doesn't really matter when you eat, it's what and how much you eat that counts. Others swear by a cut off point. If your last meal was lunch, you should bring a snack to eat at work an hour or two before you workout. Maybe string cheese and an apple, or yogurt and fruit. Some protein and good carbs will help fuel your workout. When you get home, you can eat some light foods, salad with chicken, chicken/shrimp stirfry, et. Some protein, veggies and fruit are always good choices. Try different things and see what is good for you. Good luck!

I'm seconding Suzi161 about time of eating. Recent studies have shown that it doesn't really matter if you eat right before bed or not. If you're low on points, try the 100 cal popcorn MomofTwoGirls suggested, I prefer PopSecret's over the others. I am a huge fan of jello cups as well as just chewing gum. Also, check how much water you have drank as you may be dehydrated, not hungry...
Another tip I use sometimes is to brush my teeth once I'm done eating, which tells my brain, that I'm done.

thanks you guys! And lately I havent been eating all my points, I mean most of them but not all. I almost feel like there are too many for me. I was just thinking maybe my stand still for a week or so was eating right after the gym but right before bed nearly. Who knows. maybe it is just timing. :) Thank you again!

Always eat all your points! try using some flex points too. My leader challenged me to try using all 35 extra points one week and I lost 3 lbs when I had been gaining for 2 weeks. I do it at least once a month now. I agree time of day doesnt matter when it comes to eating and I make airpopped popcorn> You can use 1/3 cup of seeds and it is only 2 points and gives you a big bowlfull. Try spraying with butter flavored cooking spray ang shake on some popcorn seasoning. gives lots or flavor options and doesnt add any points! Great job on all the exercise too! keep it up.

I think a lot of people say don't eat before bed because we tend to eat things like ice cream (not carrots) before bed. I agree with some of the others that it's not about what time you eat, but focus more on what you eat. My ww leader said she had a goal of only eating veggies after 8pm. (I don't remember if that was the exact time she used.) She realized there would be times she would eat late, so her goal wasn't never to eat after a certain time, but to be sure she was eating something healthy and low in points if it was later in the evening. She's been a ww leader for 25 years, so it's probably a goal worth trying yourself - just a suggestion.
