My thoughts:
I had one point left. Fritos don’t make me feel quite as sick as Cheetos do, but they don’t make me feel great. Too bad I like them!

My thoughts:
I had one point left. I should know better than to eat Cheetos. If I eat too many – and I did – I get sick. I was miserable a while, but once I threw up I was all better. So who knows how many points I actually absorbed. Note to self: no more Cheetos.

I had 9 points left. I was still stuffed from dinner yesterday that I didn’t eat until lunchtime. I love big salads. They make me happy.

I had one point left. I wasn’t going to count points today, but I ended up counting anyway. We had a bit of a non-traditional Thanksgiving dinner. It was yummy.
Thursday, November 26, 2009 was my twenty-sixth weigh-in. Since it’s Thanksgiving I decided to weigh myself early. I don’t plan to count points today!

marshmallows (4 points)
Snickers minis (2 points)
Total points: 27
Cups of water: 6
Vitamins? Yes
My thoughts:
I had 2 points left. Cinnamon rolls are entirely too many points for the size. The dirty rice was really good. By using ground turkey we were able to make it with a lot fewer points than with beef.
