weight watchers

so LaVon and I have officially changed our lives by joining in on weight watchers. we are doing the internet tracking and not the classroom style and we are learning so much everyday. we are eating tons of fruits and veggies and supplementing with "main dishes" we have been doing it for 5 days now and we have both lost a little over 2 pounds so far! we don't have tons to loose but we don't want weight to become an "out of this world" issue...so we shall conquer now and maintain when we accomplish our goal weights. we love that we can still eat what we have been eating but in smaller more appropriate portions. the 2 major things we have learned thus far are: 1. that we have had a relationship with food and that needs to change...we are working on seeing and using food for its nutrition and not its taste/ comfort. We are both stress eaters and tend to turn to food a lot but we are now working on finding our other stress outlet.
2. you can still cook your own recipes but improve them with better ingredients and they provide that information right there on their recipe builder link. I am truly loving learning what foods are healthier for us and which ones i should be staying away from. they have put it in such lamen terms that it is easy to identify when something is healthy or not for our bodies. I can already feel the difference emotionally and physically and know that we are benefiting from this experience.
