Core and I Didn't Know It
So a few weeks ago my WW meeting leader was talking about trying to base your menu on Core foods. I have started realizing, while using WW etools, that for dinner every night I eat Core. (There's this little check mark that shows up on your "Plan Manager" that tells you if your food is Core or not.) I either have grilled shrimp or chicken and frozen vegetables or grilled green peppers and onions. Maybe I throw in a 1/4 of an avocado for a little kick. It was interesting to realize that I have doing this for about 6-9 months. While I have really needed to be on the Flex Plan to be happy with options, I have been following Core for at least one meal a day. I guess it also shows how much you learn about which foods to eat when you are trying to lose weight and get healthy. I mean, I always knew I should be eating more seafood and vegetables, but I just never put it into practice. I guess, if anything, this whole journey has been a learning experience.

wow I cant believe you have lost 75lbs already! Way to go... seems like I havent been to your blog in ages... not sure how long it has been? Great job! Thanks for dropping by my blog too. HUGS Amanda :)
Do you still count points/measure portions for your dinner or are you working towards "eating until satisfied?"
Hey Mrs. Darcy,
Good point - I am still counting points for dinner, but I would also say that I am eating until satisfied too. Interesting thing is that dinner is often the lowest points meal of my day. Probably because I eat more grains and carbohydrates earlier in the day (cherrios for breakfast, pasta salad for lunch)
The core plan always sounded good too though I always did the points but got tired of it. Glad you are doing well.
It sounds like you’re making excellent food choices. Great work!
Also... Congratulations on losing 75lbs and reaching size 6! It just seemed like yesterday when you were talking about losing 50lbs.
You loved core and didn't even know it...how funny!
I'm still so impressed by all that weight you've lost. you go!
