First of all, thank you to everyone for your encouragement today and every day … it means a ton.
When I started Weight Watchers, I learned the value of planning and preparation for the day– deciding ahead of time what I’d have and how many points it would “cost” — like money.
If there was a party, I’d plan accordingly. If I had a dinner date, I’d plan accordingly. And if I had no plans, I’d plan accordingly.
Over time, I taught myself to use “pre-emptive strikes,” or what I referred to as “defensive eating,” to avoid the potential of overeating at parties and social events, trips, etc.
